Valentine’s Day shirts even a boy (and his mama) could love
Even with two older sisters who keep him well in touch with his feminine side, it didn’t take long before my son had decided pink was a “girl” color and that his sweet puppy tees should be traded for race cars and dinosaurs. But he still loves...
DIY shirts that’ll tickle kids’ octopi fancies
My 3-year-old is currently in the full throes of wanting to be an artiste. Paints, crayons, felt, tissue paper, googly eyes, she wants to do it all — especially if she can wear a beret at the same time. And now there’s a new shop offering DIY shirt...

Design your own tutu. Without, you know, designing your own tutu.
Tutus are everywhere these days (I even saw some at Costco) and little girls are wearing them everywhere and anywhere. And why not? They’re little girls. Nobody’s going to look at them funny. Or so we hope.Here’s a fun spin on the already fun tutu:...
