I am still the world's worst Starbucks orderer. I can't remember whether I order the size before the "iced" and I still get the name of the coffee I love wrong. So of course I'm giggling at this adorable poster that breaks down the basic…
In this fontastic alphabet, J stands for James...James Bond? I'm in. Especially since I is for Iron Man. I just love the way Helvetica is used to depict some of my favorite superheroes and famous characters, and wow, how great would they…
If there's one awesome baby gift for any kid at all anywhere, it's a bunch of books to start his library. Which means if there's one more awesome baby gift, it's going to be a sturdy bookend that does more than just sit there and look pr…
Despite having found so many cool kids' growth charts here on Cool Mom Picks, I confess I still use a pencil on the side of our kitchen wall. It's not that I haven't loved every single one of them, but they're either too pretty or too bi…

A few years ago we fell in love with the MomAgenda School Year Journals, so much so that I raved about them everywhere, from my own kids' classes to the TODAY show (where I also confessed my inability to maintain even a baby book). So I …
Lately, my handbag has become a bottomless pit, full of everything from loose business cards to computer cords and bottles of milk and lip gloss. And my idea of using old make-up bags to keep everything separate was brilliant until I cou…
I know I'm not the only one who's always wondered if there's an easier way to pit cherries. Every year, I wait for cherry season with much anticipation, only to be reminded that with half of my kids needing me to pit their cherries befor…
While I will always have a soft spot in my heart for those high-contrast, abstract-shaped, infant mobiles, admittedly they don't age well as your child gets older. The folks at CMP favorite Petit Collage have the perfect solution for tha…
My 5-year-old showed almost zero percent interest in maps until we went on vacation to a beach town. Suddenly, it was very important that she be the holder of the map at all times. It was ultimately a good thing, even if said map ended u…
