Super Scandinavian modern design for kids. Without the plane ticket to Scandinavia.

Oh, Internet, how I love thee. Chic NYC boutiques await me on my laptop, 24/7 even when I’m nowhere near. And my latest online thrill is a children’s shop stocked to brimming with gorgeous Scandinavian style. Ja, takk! (Yes, please!) {Don’t miss an...

Dream a little dream of your baby (finally) asleep in a cozy bassinet

by Jeana | Kids' Furniture

With my first two kids, the bassinet was a bedside fixture for at least the first month or two after their respective arrivals. Clunky and awkward, it was not exactly a charmer — and my wakeful babies didn’t seem too impressed, either. This time around,...

The Novogratz family takes us to Brazil. And you’re invited.

by Liz Gumbinner | Kids' Furniture

The prolific designers and TV faves Bob and Courtney Novogratz are taking their small CB2 home collection to new places. Specifically Brazil. And I want to go. The new Novogratz Brasil collection for CB2, just launched this month, is such a funy, cheery way to...

The coolest dollhouse for kids isn’t a dollhouse at all

by Kristen Chase | Kids' Furniture

With a house full of girls, you can bet that I’ve seen and owned my fair share of dollhouse toys, all of which have been some of my kids’ favorite gifts from us. Or uh, Santa Claus. But for as many version of the traditional dollhouse toy that I’ve...

Letting your kid draw on the furniture

by Stephanie Slate | Kids' Furniture

Every once in a while, my toddler and I will be walking through our house when he stops, points, and says his sister’s name. Why? Because she has so kindly written it or drawn a picture in that very spot. On the wall. Or the door. Or the kitchen cupboard. It...

Wishlist wonderful: a kid’s desk designed to dazzle

by Kirsten | Kids' Furniture

My kids have always been obsessed with arts and crafts. (I don’t really know of a kid who isn’t.) And as a parent, I’ve always tried to create fun spaces for my kids to use their imaginations to the fullest. Now this desk is at the tippy-top of my...

Funky kids’ furniture that’s not your average kids’ furniture

by Kirsten | Kids' Furniture

When I started searching for furniture to fill my kids’ bedrooms, I was on the lookout for pieces that were kid-friendly yet well designed. I wanted something that didn’t feel predictable. And above all, I wanted something that didn’t...

Zara Home hits the US: parents and children rejoice!

by Kirsten | Kids' Furniture

We have been long time fans of Zara so it wasn’t hard to get super excited about the launch of their new new e-commerce home line for the US. We’ve been drooling from afar by looking at their UK site, but thankfully now we can enjoy it for ourselves....

The ottoman fit for your child’s adorable little butt

by Liz Gumbinner | Kids' Furniture

I am one of those moms who totally wants my house to look as good as it did pre-kids, but also recognizes that that is ridiculously impractical and it will never happen and no, it’s okay, I have my own Kleenex. So when I find furniture that both looks great and...

Tree swings like they used to make them

by Liz Gumbinner | Kids' Furniture

One of my children’s very favorite thing about Grandma’s house is the the swing in the backyard. We are city-dwellers after all, and swings are generally something you have to wait in line for. This one started as a little baby swing hanging from a sturdy...

Mod kids furniture that looks just like the grownup stuff

by Kristen Chase | Kids' Furniture

Adding to the growing list of things I know now, that I didn’t when I had my first kid: I would have skipped the cheap stuff, and invested in a solid kids’ table and set of chairs. We’ve gone through far too many to count. If you’re a...

3 cheers for the Pantone 186, Pantone 12-4302 and Pantone 286!

by Liz Gumbinner | Kids' Furniture

I’ve always been a sucker for the Pantone licensed products, which let you show your allegiance to lavender or mimosa through desktop goodies. Now, they’re available in folding chairs which are pretty darn great for outdoor lounging season or when you need...

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.
