Come on, you know your little man fits the bill. Chubby cheeks, laughing eyes, and a perfectly round Buddha belly. Wouldn't he look utterly delicious in a kimono? A masculine (but snuggly) kimono? [see our giveaway after the jump!] We've…
As a mom of a boy, I know how challenging it can be to find cool shirts that aren't drenched in licensed characters . Sure, I love super heroes as much as the next person, but even spider man wears real clothes when he's off duty. So, I'…
If you've ever run from one side of the mall to the other trying to match a dress from the department store and shoes from a boutique with just the right cardigan, then you are going to totally love this discovery. I think it's the onlin…
Two of my favorite words are "simply elegant", but I've never gotten to apply that concept to my son's wardrobe before. Which is why I have a total adoration for the summer Daily Tea collection just out for boys and girls. We've already …
I thought I'd died and gone to heaven when Soft Clothing first arrived on the scene, bringing flat-seamed, soft cotton clothing basics for kids who have sensory issues. My own son isn't as picky as he used to be, but he still goes for th…
I was hoping--praying--that the Silly Bandz craze would stay far far away from my daughter's preschool. When it hit, it hit hard, like a giant neon apocalyptic storm of wiggly plastic and shrieking children. I can completely see why some…
After getting two kids through the messy eating phase and currently dealing with one who's in the thick of it, I might just be a bib expert. And I have to say that the bibs from JJ Cole are some of my all-time favorites. It doesn't hurt …
As my poor waterlogged friends in the Pacific Northwest know all too well, June can be a wet one. It's as if Mother Nature doesn't give a hoot that we have bored little faces staring up at us waiting for summer to begin. I think it's bet…
With summer officially underway, I am busy getting my beach bag stocked so I can run off to the pool at a moment's notice. Along with towels, my unfashionable floppy hat and tons of sunscreen, I'm going to be including the new UV Board S…
If you needed any more evidence that denim is hot again, take a look at the new denim diaper cover I just spotted at babyGap. I love the dark wash with the slight fade on the bum, and that little pocket in back is too cute for words. It …
Oh stop it you cynics. Most dads -- especially the new ones -- would be thrilled to spend Father's Day flouting their dadness on their chest, and that of their doting progeny. So we've tracked down a few of the more clever daddy and me s…
I have already espoused my love for baby bloomers here on Cool Mom Picks. Their versatility really make them the perfect warm weather baby accessory. But with the adorable baby bloomers from CMP fave Raven & Lily, I just added another re…
It always seems like girls get the pick of the litter when it comes to cool accessories and boys are relegated to fourteen varieties of baseball caps. So if you've got a little hat connoisseur of the male persuasion, I strongly suggest t…
So I admit that this whole adult romper trend scares me just a little, mostly because my body is not cut out for any sort of one-piece clothing item not meant for a beach. But my daughters, on the other hand, look absolutely fabulous in …
As the air grows warmer, a slow smile spreads over my face. I'm not thinking about beach vacations or barbecues though. No, the thought balloon over my head says, Soon my kids will wear sandals , and I won't have to hunt and wash and mat…
Certainly you have a whole list somewhere of all the funny things your kid has said. My youngest daughter named her stuffed horse Puke Bok, and the oldest has been known to say things like I'm not licking the gingerbread house..I'm just …
I'm all for putting my 5-year-old daughter in so-called "boy" dinosaur shirts, though her obsession with pink and all things girlie stomps my efforts. But now I shall strike back and win with the DinoGirl shirt from Jusami . This adorabl…
C an you think of a good source for cute rocker-girl clothes for toddler girls? I'm doing this whole rock n' roll birthday party for a 3rd bday and want to get her a fun outfit. -Tara I have a few favorites that immediately come to mind …
Back when my kids were outgrowing their outfits every three months, it pained me to have to restock their wardrobe continually. It wasn't just the cost, it was the time it took to select each item. That's why I'm intrigued by the new eas…
Finding a baby hat I loved was like...well, something that was really hard. For some reason they were always too floppy, too stiff, or too cutesie (seriously, enough with the huge bows at the chin). But Rikshaw Design just nails it with …
My search for the ultimate summer sandal is on thanks to the early 80-degree weather here in the South, and I think I might have found it in Bear Feet shoes . The simple, versatile styling instantly caught my eye, and as I clicked around…
My very favorite word is cupcake , but I'm also a huge fan of funky, simple, and handmade . Luckily, those are the specialties of Mountain Aven Baby . Well, maybe not the cupcake part. But the other three. We see loads of bibs and blanke…
With my kids still completely obsessed with their age and name, I'm always on the look out for cool letter and number t-shirts that won't break the bank. Who knew I could look no further than American Apparel for exactly what I've been l…
Would someone I know please get married soon? And while you're at it, lend me a baby boy to bring ? Not because I actually want to carry around a baby at a wedding (what if I leave him on the buffet table when I put him down to get secon…
