The joy of socks
I've found you spend the first few years of your baby's life building up a wardrobe you can love. You start to know which brands fit, which hold up in the wash, and just when you do...bam. Your kid is too big and you have to start over.

Which really, if you think about it, is totally nuts. Five should not be past its prime for anything, save for high chairs and random milk-flinging tantrums.

So Hank & Jojo, makers of the cute retro baby tube socks I last year and fell in love with, got smart. They now make the same baby socks, in the same cheery lunchbox, only in toddler and kids' sizes up to 7 yrs. So smart. In fact, kids can even take the lunchbox to school, since it's printed with food-grade inks - although it does have that clear window on it. (Oh, the pressure to pack a healthy lunch!)

I think it's the coolest idea for a new baby gift and a matching big sibling gift. There's even a new preemie/newborn sock set too. And I never thought I'd recommend anyone buy socks for a kid when you could be getting him a toy. See? We learn a lot as parents as we go along. -Liz
