We tried the top-rated pillow on Amazon to see if it was all that. And whoa, it is.
I get a lot of email pitches here at Cool Mom Picks with all sorts of compelling subject lines, but when I saw Try the Top Rated Pillow on Amazon, this extremely tired mom couldn’t help but click that one open. To be honest, I don’t tend to put a lot of...
Baby gear obsessed? The gorgeous fall DockATot designs are like works of art.

New Jersey parents of newborns can take home baby boxes filled with everything—even a bed.
When I was an overwhelmed brand-new mom, I wished for a magical box that would somehow contain all that my newborn would need: Diapers, health supplies, onesies, how-to guides, a baby bed for safe sleeping. Yes. An actual baby bed. In a box. It turns out that the idea...

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.

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