Whatchoo talkin’ bout, Emma?
I am dying over the awesomeness that is the "Say What" personalized stationery gift sets from past CMP pick, Just Jenn Designs. Just email the designer a good headshot of your child (or dog or BFF) that can be easily silhouetted, and she'll send you back personalized...
If you didn’t want to eat up your kids before, these clothes may very well inspire you to.
The new spring 2010 line from Masala Baby is fusion at its finest. A little bit of the New York urban vibe mixed with a lot of Indian spiciness and tradition. Blended together, they create one of the coolest kids clothing collections I've ever feasted my eyes upon....
Atlantis Resort Bahamas – Disney meets Vegas meets pruney fingers
All things being equal, I will admit I enjoy reviewing warm beachy family resorts more than, say, iPhone apps. So when I had the opportunity to check out the new Kids Club at the Atlantis Resort Bahamas last week on a press trip with my four year-old daughter -- and...
Plush explorer friends, beyond Dora
We love wooden toys, but let's face it, there's often more room in our kids' hearts (and hands) for those that are cuddly, plush and less likely to leave a mark when you fall asleep on top of one. Evidently the eco-minded designers of Noferin agreed, and adapted their...
The baby bibs for full contact eaters
The more time I spend around other people's babies, the more I realize how lucky I was that my own weren't the types to end up with more peas on their bodies than in their mouths at meal time. For those kids who like to get a little more Jackson Pollock with their...
Love notes you’ll love
Are you stuck in a never-ending search for Valentine's Day cards that don't embarrass you to send to anyone over the age of five? Let's just say glossy, cheap, mass produced images of kittens tangled in yarn don't always convey the message for...
Baby thigh highs. For real.
So when I first saw the email from Jennifer Dutcher asking us to check out her new business called Rock-a-thigh Baby, I admit to having visions of baby high heels and feather boas. On the contrary, this mom of four has created a pretty cool baby legwarmer and tights...
Many ways to say I love you. All of them sterling.
After yet another visit to the Beehive Co-op in Atlanta, Kristen ran home to tell me about some great new finds, and I'm starting to get jealous that the one in New York is up in Westchester and not in the city. Or better, Brooklyn. Right on my block.I was really...
A Ray of sunshine in nursery decor.
I hate my hand-me-down crib with the passion of a thousand fiery suns, which is why it's in pieces in the attic while my kid sleeps in an old pack-and-play the color of used hospital scrubs. In my dreams, I've got something from Muu Furniture - I'm thinking white with...
Rolling out the big American welcome mat for Tommee Tippee
Expat mums in the US or those just enamored (or enamoured?) of European baby products will be delighted to know that Tommee Tippee, Britain's #1 megabrand of sippies and bottles is about to flood American malls - or at least those with a Toys R Us in them. It's nice...
