If you think the answer to the formula shortage is more breastfeeding, read these perspectives first.

If you think the answer to the formula shortage is more breastfeeding, read these perspectives first.

by Christina Refford | Thinking : Parent

Though my “babies” are all old enough to drive a car, I’ve been following the nationwide baby formula shortages with alarm over the rhetoric being aimed at parents who are feeding their babies formula. Instead of trying to find ways to help panicked...

The world’s cutest tableware for kids: We have a contender!

The world’s cutest tableware for kids: We have a contender!

by Christina Refford | Kitchen + Dining

When my kids first started eating solids, they often reminded me of wild baby animals — flinging food all over the place, trying to eat without using their hands, and getting all the gooiest stuff mashed into their hair. So I’m pretty impressed with...
14 of the coolest baby gifts and gear we wish we had when we were new moms. (Yeah, just a little jealous.)

14 of the coolest baby gifts and gear we wish we had when we were new moms. (Yeah, just a little jealous.)

by Kate Etue | Baby, Fashion

If innovative baby gear is any indication, we can confidently say this is an awesome time to be expecting. My youngest just turned 6 years old, so I’m only a few years out of the baby stage, and yet there has been so much amazing change in baby gear even since...

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.
