I really hate losing an hour of sleep to Daylight Savings Time, but I'm also thrilled beyond belief that the season of Throwing the Children Outside to Play is nigh. And I'm pretty sure they will stay out even longer if they have somethi…
Babo the bunny won't put up with animal testing. He wants everything to be vegan and organic , and he believes that hair and body solutions for kids should be just as high-quality as the products used by adults. Sheesh, Babo. No wonder y…

I love the way my kids smell after their bath; all of their products -- shampoo, soap, lotion -- have light, fresh scents. Bath lines for grownups can be cloying in comparison, but baby bath products don't work on my super dry skin. Than…
Henry Ford offered his Model-T Ford in any color you wanted, so long as it was black. The most popular brands of baby carrier often have the same limited palette. Let's face it, you're just not going to find a sage Infantino with a peace…
We all know Alice in Wonderland is crazy hip right now, but let's be honest - not all Alicey-items are swoon-worthy. This one, however? Is. The collection of Alice in Wonderland themed tees at Pajama Squid come to you from Australia's He…
Most people imagine Mother Earth being all Birkenstocky and granola eating, but me? I think Mother Earth has got it going on. And if she wore earrings, she might very well be wearing the Real Light collection from Real Jewels , a company…
I am still in the lowly iPhone-less margins of society , although I'm fortunate to have plenty of friends who show me all the coolest new apps I'm missing. Take the free LEGO Photo app , for instance: It will take a regular .jpg photo an…
I am generally frustrated with all the embellished girls' pants out there are covered in flowers, sequins, sparkles, or (eek) all three. So when I got wind of the Sejong Dragon Pant from CMP fave Tea Collection I thought, fabulous ! Or, …

I once spent some vacation time up in Maine near a farmer's market that had the best granola. We brought a ton home figuring it would last forever, which is another term for "one week." While there are certainly some mass brands of grano…
When I was a kid, a tent was a musty quilt over a card table, and it was heaven. Kids have it a little better today, and the magic of a secret fort lives on with the fantastic card table playhouses by Miss Pretty Pretty of Imaginative Pl…
The epic new documentary series, Discovery LIFE isn't for everyone. I mean, surely there are people out there who just don't like cool things. Who don't like watching some of the most miraculous animal footage every filmed. Who would fin…
I still use the soft cooler that I bought 10 years ago to lug around bottles and baby food for things like fruit, yogurt and juice pouches. But there is no doubt that if I were buying one now I would look no further than the Cooler Bags …
So here's the dirty secret about babywearing: Different baby carriers work for different people and different babies at different times. It's totally subjective, and that's why so many of us have a complete wardrobe of the darned things.…
Today, I positively reek of Alice. You know, Alice in Wonderland? Hottest movie of the week? And it's all thanks to Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab . BPAL, as we fans call it, is a cheeky, artsy, Tim Burton-esque perfumerie offering hundreds o…
When I'm window shopping the web, it's always dangerous to stop on the Etsy homepage, where their editors are carefully curating millions of items down into just the very ones that I have to have. (How do they do that?) A recent find: Th…
