Mother’s Day and grandmas: Beautifully simple ideas to help you to feel close when you’re apart

by Christina Refford | Mother's Day Gifts

While many of us will wake up on Mother’s Day to breakfast in bed, a few handmade cards and crafts, or hopefully at minimum some well wishes and a day of semi-relaxation, we are also thinking about all the grandmas on Mother’s Day. There are so many we are...

by Kate Etue | Mother's Day Gifts

This year for Mother’s Day, we wanted to be sure to round up some of the best subscription boxes for mom out there. After all, mail is a bit delayed right now, making standard shipping a risk for last-minute gifts in some cases. We also know that moms are...

15 cool gifts for the guy who has everything. Except…well, these.

by Liz Gumbinner | For the Menfolk, Holiday Picks

Oh, men. We love them, we love shopping for them, but we hate when they seem to already have everything they need — maybe because we’re all such amazing gift givers? Ha. Fret not! Over the years, we’ve put together a lot of fabulous guides to cool...

How to play Crokinole: The best game you’ve never played

by Kristen Chase | Toys + Playthings

After someone I follow on Instagram mentioned that her family had a blast playing the game Crokinole, I decided to Google it, having never heard of it myself. What kind of board game buff am I? Not a good one, apparently. Well, as I’ve learned over the last...

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.
