I have big dreams of redesigning my kids' bedrooms with one-of-a-kind, fun furniture that will capture their personalities and make way for the most awesome sleepover destination ever. Which is why my jaw dropped when I saw the amazing V…
You may remember Cuddle and Kind's beautiful hand-knit dolls , which we featured last fall. We gushed over how cute the line is, and even more impressive, their amazing mission to feed hungry kids with ten meals donated to major hunger-f…
The internet's been all atwitter about the re-release of the Misty Copeland Barbie doll . Can we blame the buzz? It's Misty Copeland -- brilliant prima ballerina, African-American trailblazer, and all-around girl crush . Apparently we're…
When I receive a book with the subtitle, The ABC's of What We Wear I admit I'm thinking oh great, another "boys like transportation, girls like fashion" book. But it turns out I am utterly charmed by Maria Carluccio's D is for Dress-Up ,…
With family picnics and outdoor parties on the horizon, I'm loving Jaq Jaq Bird's Chalk Board Table Runner that gives kids -- and adults, if we're being honest -- a creative canvas on which to doodle while they (cough) patiently wait for…
We're dying of cuteness over here! Having just taken a look at the brand new collection of cute kids' sneakers from EMU Australia -- oh my goodness. Adorable. I think they're sporty enough for a trip to the playground but stylish enough …
Last fall, two of our editors tried Stitch Fix and gave their totally honest reviews about their experience (one liked it, one didn't). This month a new twist on the popular shopping service trend launched, but this time it's for kids. I…
Celebrities! They're just like us! They get coffee at Starbucks, they wear sweats to the grocery store, and... they read books. Of course, it's not like we can just give every one of our favorite movie stars, authors, and television pers…
After ten years of parenting, I thought I had this whole toothbrushing thing figured out. I mean, it's not that hard, compared to say potty training or tying shoelaces. But when my preschooler ended up at the dentist with three cavities,…
We're fond of baby rain ponchos as easy, pull-on-and-off alternatives to the traditional raincoats with all those snaps and buttons. You too? Well then your rainy day blues are about to get a little brighter since we discovered these bri…
It's probably no surprise that The Land of Nod is one of our most favorite shopping destination for all things kids, so we're beyond thrilled to be teaming up with them, along with our friends at Pop Sugar Moms and Mommy Shorts for a hug…
Whether today is spent making memories or (ahem) making amends, we hope someone is at least making you coffee in bed. Wishing a wonderful day to all the moms, grandmas, stepmothers, mothers-in-law, foster moms, and moms-to-be -- you dese…

You're probably familiar with St. Jude Children's Research Hospital -- you've seen the ads with the adorably sweet, brave children, featuring Marlo Thomas, daughter of actor and St. Jude's founder Danny Thomas. You may have caught some o…
While I wouldn't say I'm a huge fan of horse racing , I do usually pour myself a mint julep and watch the Kentucky Derby (without the hat) each year. My kids and I are fascinated by the sheer beauty of the stunning horses -- an interest …
In my opinion, a good book is a great gift . And since you're probably shopping for Mom this week (but hurry!), I'd recommend you stop by your local bookstore to take a peek at What I Told My Daughter by Nina Tassler. This collection of …
Around here we have the same problem each year: We start looking for cool Mother's Day gifts for all of you weeks in advance...and that means, we sometimes forget to get our own gifts taken care of. (Cobblers' children and all that). Hey…
While there are tons of amazing, store-bought Mother's Day cards these days, I love when my kids take the time to create a handmade Mother's Day card for me. It gives them an opportunity to be creative, and feel that pride that comes wit…
You don't need to live in a galaxy far, far away to grab one of these cool inner-space worthy Star Wars kites from Think Geek on May the Fourth or any other day. And you won't even need the force to get one of these babies into the air -…
I happen to have a mother who'd be more happy with a political biography or a "smash the patriarchy" print for Mother's Day, than a salt scrub. (Not that she'd turn down a nice salt scrub.) It got me thinking, that I'm sure she's not alo…
I fell in love with this book the moment I opened it, thanks to its luminous illustrations. I shouldn't be surprised that Lane Smith was behind them, the artist known for kids' classics like The Stinky Cheese Man , The True Story of the …
I hate to admit it, but every once in a while I find myself fussing at my kids, "Put that book down and come on!" But, I have to say, I truly love when they're nose-deep in a book. And I'm on a lifetime quest to forever encourage my kids…
I was super excited to hear about Mo Willems latest, The Thank You Book , a new adventure in friendship between Gerald and Piggie that's launching today. The one downside: this is the 25th and final book in the Elephant & Piggie series (…
