Future Jeff Gordons, Have a Seat

For some reason I’m always paralyzed when it comes to picking out kids’ furniture. Every time I see something I’m sure I want, I find something else and thus never end up with anything at all. Now I’ve got one more option to add to the pool...

Putting the Toys Away Was Never So Appealing

by Cool Mom Staff | Kids' Furniture

The toys are accumulating–if not actually reproducing–just as everyone told us they would. And now I think the toys are disproportionately high to the square footage allotted to keep said toys out of eyesight. Part of the issue isn’t the size of our...

Zen and the Art of the Sleeping Baby

by Cool Mom Staff | Kids' Furniture

I often wondered, night after sleepless night, as my daughter lay snuggled in my bed, what it was about her crib she hated so much? Was it the color? The wood? The discount price? Maybe I should have invested in this exquisite Ioline Crib from Kalon Studios. Made from...

La-Z-Baby

by Cool Mom Staff | Kids' Furniture

I’ve been scouring the web for the perfect chairs for my daughter’s tiny heiny, but I always run into the same problems. Either the chairs look like they were grown at the awful plastic farm, or they cost more than a piece that I could fit in.This is not...

Gettin’ Jiggy With It

by Cool Mom Staff | Kids' Furniture

There seem to be two schools of thought when it comes to decorating for kids: You can go super kid-like, or you can find adult looking stuff in miniature sizes. Basically, Playskool or Eames. Leapfrog or Oeuf. But now there’s a whole category in the...

Reach for the Stars (or at Least the Kitchen Sink)

by Cool Mom Staff | Kids' Furniture

We’ve reached the "I can do it" stage in our household. Holding her for handwashing is no longer an option and considering we’ve had a few accidents around the house, she needs a better way to reach things on her own. With that in mind, I was...

Mamas, Let Your Babies Grow Up to Be Cowgirls

by Cool Mom Staff | Kids' Furniture

When I was young I wanted to be an indian princess. I didn’t know from PC terms or that this wasn’t an actual career that one could pursue; I just knew that Tiger Lily was the prettiest thing I had ever seen in my whole seven years of existence. One click...

I’ve Taken Back My Coffee Table

by Cool Mom Staff | Kids' Furniture

I finally put my foot down, and cleared all the puzzles, Play-doh, and crayons off my coffee table. Call me crazy – I like to be able to put my feet up at the end of a long day and not get glitter and glue all over them. Thanks to our cute, hand painted table...

Higher Standards

by Cool Mom Staff | Kids' Furniture

Here at Cool Mom Picks, we feel you get what you pay for. That is why we recommend the Swiss-made Svan highchair for the practical parent who’d rather coordinate with her dinner table than with her baby’s bouncy seat. The Svan is a bit pricey compared to...

Hi! We’re Kristen + Liz!

Kristen Chase + Liz Gumbinner of Cool Mom Picks

We started Cool Mom Picks in 2006 to help make life cooler, more meaningful, and more fun for parents of all kinds.

Trivia: It was called Cool Mom Sh*t for the first two days. (Yeah, we rethought that.)

We had no idea our site would grow to become a major lifestyle network, that we'd end up sharing our finds with the TODAY Show and Martha Stewart, that we'd be able to make a real difference for so many small businesses and women-run companies, or that we'd end up with an incredible community of the coolest readers on the planet. (If we do say so ourselves).

We still love what we do every single day. And we're so glad you're here.
