My daughter's ideas for how she wants to decorate her room change daily, sometimes by the hour, so I'm having a hard time keeping up. Does she want turquoise walls, a hand-painted mural, or are we going with that all-white walls and brig…
I always love finding and sharing European brands for kids that we don't see so regularly around our parts, but mostly, they're actually in Europe. That isn't necessarily a bad thing, but you know, shipping. Well it turns out a French ex…
I've been feeling like my house has gotten a little out of control here at the end of the summer, so I'm taking advantage of our new back-to-school routine this week to get started. (And yes, I'm one of those moms with the crazy early sc…
If you have a thing for maps and globes and geography in general, then you might love this as much as I do: a paintsplatter world map spotted at The Fancy. It would be so beautiful over a desk or in a kitchen, but I imagine my kids would…
Photo gifts for baby showers can be a win even before the little one arrives. It's just so personal and thoughtful, and hey, if you're going to go off the registry, might as well really go off the registry. So we've looked around to find…
I have come across a few little design hack ideas to help keep my kids' overflowing drawers a little less so--and hopefully, in the process, keep the seven year-old from grabbing the tye-died tank top and gym shorts when it's 10-degrees …
Before you start making more pencil marks on the wall, remember this: Long after the crib is gone and the tiny toddler shoes are replaced by giant adult-size sneakers, that growth chart you started oh-so-many years ago may be something y…
Beloved children's author and illustrator, Mo Willems , has been providing my kids and me with bedtime guffaws (seriously, it's way beyond just a little tittering) since, well, since forever. So I can only imagine the kind of silliness t…
The kids in my life want to redecorate their rooms. A lot. Most notably, the teenaged niece who painted her walls purple, her ceiling lime green, and the trim in her room black--nice surprise for her parents! If you want to give your own…
What's black and white and chic all over? Your baby's future nursery, of course! If you're looking for something other than the traditional blues, pinks and yellows, we've got you covered. I'm a huge fan of this gender-neutral nursery tr…
Ahoy mateys, it's Talk Like a Pirate Day , one of our favorite should-be-a-real-holiday days of the year. And though my "pirate speak" is a little rusty, my ability to find some of the cutest and coolest pirate-related treasures is right…
For a while we've been fans of the creative wall decals and wallpaper from Pop & Lolli made just for kids' rooms --and so have our readers. So much so, they're always getting requests for more designs, more styles, more colors. So weren'…
It's no secret that we love alphabet posters around here, so we've rounded up some of our favorites from the past few years. Whether you like it when X stands for X-ray, X-wing, or Malcolm X, we've got an ABC poster you'll love. 1. The C…
I love having a really nice camera built into my phone. I get to capture so many memories of my kids' childhood that my mom didn't because we only had twelve exposures on that roll of Polaroid film, so they had better be good ones! The o…
Picking a nursery theme doesn't have to be hard--but it doesn't have to be boring, either. We always say, skip the easily outgrown cartoon characters and go for something you won't have to change so fast. We know it's hard to imagine whe…

We've loved Hello Kitty since we were little girls, and now we admit it's fun having her back in our lives on all kinds of things for babies and kids. Especially from some of our favorite indie brands. If you're a Sanrio fan, say hello t…
Does anyone get as grumpy as I do about spending money on birthday party decorations that you use once before they become landfill? Well thanks to this new, affordable reusable banner from CMP favorite Butch and Harold, I'm feeling much …
Dinosaurs: they're timeless, they're great for both boys and girls, and now they can liven up a child's room without ruining the walls. We're digging these three new sets of decals that can turn any kid's cave into a strange new world. O…
We're dreaming of white...walls, that is. A white wall in a child's room just begs to be noticed. You can go crazy expensive and find a muralist (we can dream!), or make a statement in a much less pricey way, like with these cool, quirky…
While spring may be best known for cleaning, for me, September is my big organization solution month. As the kids get back to school and we start falling into routines , I feel like if I don't get organized now, I'll never catch up. I we…

It only took my husband a good three months to install our large wall calendar system in the kitchen. And I won't even tell you how much it cost. Ouch. Too bad I didn't know about Wall Pops, whose awesome wall decals we featured in our b…
Jeff Koons may have popularized the balloon dog as pop art icon, but as a figure in so many of our own childhoods , its no wonder we're starting to see all kinds of artists and brands finding inspiration in them. Here are a few super cut…
