Belle is now extra verte. That's, Belle as in Belle Baby Carrier, and verte as in French for green, and green as in super-duper-eco-friendly-organic-awesomeness. The new Belle Organic Earth, like their original model, is crafted by artis…
In honor of our friends up in Vancouver, we thought we'd celebrate the 2010 Winter Olympics opening by helping the littlest among us to get into the spirit - with the fantastic leather maple leaf bib from Mally Bibs. It's a great way to …
We saw a whole lot of baby gear (a lot) at the ginormous ABC Kids Show in Las Vegas last summer, but very little stays with us all these months later. One exception however, is the cheerful European Hoppop Baby gear, which Kristen, Julie…
I'm so sorry, old buckle carrier, but we're breaking up. I met someone new. My new love is the Oh Snap! by BabyHawk , and I'm trying to find out if it's legal to marry your baby carrier. I'm a monogamous sort of girl, and even though I h…
When I was in Japan a few years ago, I tried desperately to pack my suitcase full with as much adorableness as possible. But lucky for me (and you), I don't have to endure the super long plane ride to stock up on imported Japanese goodie…
There's no shortage of Valentine's Day attire for little girls (like the Kideko heart pajamas we found this week) , but when it comes to boys, it's pretty slim pickings. And I get it. Dressing a boy in a rose-colored heart shirt is a tou…
Our love for the creative handmade wooden teethers from Little Sapling Toys runs deep, and this adorable American Sign Language "I love you" teether is no exception. And just in time for Valentine's Day to boot. Using reclaimed or FSC ce…
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…
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…
I like giving the best gift at the baby shower . Call me competitive, but I just feel that as a mom of two young kids that I should be better equipped to pick out the perfect gift than Great-Aunt Mary who still thinks the baby should be …
The stories are true. It gets darn cold up here in Canada in the winter. The kind of cold that makes your kids stand inside, shivering as they look out the front door, let alone open it and walk out. So, if we ever want to go anywhere at…
I go a little nutty for Scandinavian design, so when I learned about the brand new online design store Vyssanlull which isn't just Scandinavian but focuses on organic, eco-friendly, and ethically-made baby clothes, I knew clicking over c…
A diaper caddy isn't exactly the most essential piece in your nursery, but when you think about it, it's pretty important. You use it several times a day, for three or four years--not even my crib got that much use. So when I saw a Toron…
I am trying to locate solid lap tees, onesies, and pants comparable to American Apparel in lots of great colors. Any suggestions? - Jasmine I'm a huge fan of plain, bright solid baby clothes myself, Jasmine, and luckily, we've featured a…
There's nothing like watching an actual safety demonstration to convince you of a car seat's actual safety, and that was just the case with the new Air Protect car seat from Safety 1st after I saw it in action at the ABC Kids Show in Las…
Ever since I was introduced to the Aden & Anais muslin swaddlers, I've anxiously awaited (and subsequently been blown away by) their new products, most recently the baby sleep sacks. So I'm not surprised that I was instantly smitten with…
Do you have a recommendation for a favorite diaper bag for plane travel with two young kids? -PI I used to travel alone with both my kids quite often, and even do it now that I have three (eep!). Personally, I'm all for bags that are eas…
Considering my youngest is getting all her molars and eye teeth in at the same time (no kidding), the super smart Ringley teether, a mom-invented natural wood and organic terry cloth teething toy , is in regular rotation around my place.…
With all the baby slings and carriers I've collected over the last five years, we've always kept the Baby Bjorn on regular rotation thanks to its simple, smart style, versatility, and ease of use. Plus, it's the only baby carrier my husb…
I had my baby in February, which meant my son's little toes needed to be kept warm. He was too young for shoes, and the baby socks I had for him spent more time on the floor than on his feet. But the socks from Trumpette are known for st…
We all know that babies usually get the short end of the stick when it comes to Christmas presents, mostly because they'd just as soon spend hours chewing on a big red bow than playing with a bunch of expensive toys. So this holiday, let…
I'd all but retired my baby slings with my youngest just turning one, but then I remembered how fantastic and handy slings are for toddlers (hello, hip carry!) thanks to Small Wish . It's hard to go wrong considering the lovely fabric ch…
When I had babies of Bjorn age, the Popopver saved my life. Or at least my winters. This fleecy, simple, mom-invented baby carrier cover was a great way for me to grab the kid, strap her on, and race out the door in the middle of January…
Who ever knew that something like the perfect toddler pillow could be so instrumental in getting my daughter to sleep in her own bed? But that's just what happened with the buckwheat toddler pillow from the lovely mom-run Honeydumplings …
