8 of the coolest high-tech baby gifts that new parents will actually use | Baby registry essentials guide

8 of the coolest high-tech baby gifts that new parents will actually use | Baby registry essentials guide

by Cool Mom Staff | Baby, Tech CMP-Style

There’s a ton of high-tech baby gear out there these days — but not all of it is stuff we’d actually use or recommend. I mean, just because you can invent a training potty with an iPad stand that doesn’t mean you should. So we put our heads...

4 fun DIY mobile kits that you won’t be able to stop looking at either.

by Caroline Siegrist | DIY

As a first-time pregnant lady, I’ve been dreaming up color schemes for a nursery for oh, the past 5 months or so. And with my recent gender reveal party (it’s a boy!), I’m now even closer to honing in on colors, patterns, and styles for...

9 terrific baby gift ideas to help baby (and mom) get more sleep | Baby Registry Essentials Guide

by Kristen Chase | Baby, Family Travel

If there’s one thing we know that every new mom needs, it’s sleep. Lots of it. Lots and lots of it. So what better baby shower gift to consider than one aimed at getting her just what she needs? We are so excited to put together tons of recommendations in...
Adorable knit bunny, deer and unicorn winter hats for babies from Oeuf NYC. Because, of course you need this.

Adorable knit bunny, deer and unicorn winter hats for babies from Oeuf NYC. Because, of course you need this.

by Kate Etue | Baby, Kid Fashion

When you find a gift as adorable as these handknit animal hoodies and winter hats for babies from Oeuf (pronounced uh-f, it’s French for “egg”), I think it’s completely appropriate to ditch any baby gift registry suggestions and go...

We’re in love with these Rookie Humans crib sheets for amazing naptime instagrams without all the effort.

by Caroline Siegrist | Baby

If you follow the magical baby portraits at Wengenn in Wonderland or the instagram glory of Laura Izumikawa, you know that naptime photography is no joke. I’m mesmerized by the way these moms create whimsical worlds for their babies and keep them peacefully...

Send some pampering to a mama-to-be with The Stork Bag subscription service

by Caroline Siegrist | Health, Fitness + Wellbeing

Finally escaping the morning sickness and extreme fatigue routine of the first trimester of my pregnancy has been a big reward in and of itself. And while I’m finding the second trimester and its nesting phase to be so much more enjoyable, it too brings its own...
Remarkably Average Parenting: The hilarious parenting book for the social media generation

Remarkably Average Parenting: The hilarious parenting book for the social media generation

by Liz Gumbinner | Books for Adults

The self-deprecating mom advice book is a genre I can get behind, but it’s not always done well. I’m still recommending the edgy Sh*tty Mom series and the offbeat Let’s Panic  About Babies, but a lot of the other titles start to run together in my...
Rock-and-roll baby gear that helps you keep the dream alive.

Rock-and-roll baby gear that helps you keep the dream alive.

by Caroline Siegrist | Baby

As a parent, your head banging days may be over. And at five months pregnant, mine are coming to an end pretty soon. In fact, lately I’ve been spending much more time agonizing over the perfect lullaby playlist than attending music festivals or buying backstage...
Our 6 favorite baby carriers and slings, in honor of International Babywearing Month

Our 6 favorite baby carriers and slings, in honor of International Babywearing Month

by Kate Etue | Baby

October is my favorite month, because: hot cider, changing leaves, and sweater weather. And let’s go ahead and add International Babywearing Month to that list of loves too. As a new mom, I had plenty of unwelcome advice from strangers to not “spoil”...

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.
