With my youngest almost three years old , I'm almost out of the stroller world. I admit it: that bums me out. Because I loooove strollers. Especially the strollers from Mountain Buggy. I've fallen hard for their newest one, because it's …
Getting ready for baby #3 has required many a trip down to the basement to dig up all the gear we used with babies #1 and #2. Our old car seats were the size of woolly mammoths, though, ugh! Fortunately I've discovered two incredible new…
Heaven knows we've featured plenty of tees and artwork featuring empowering messages for kids. Now we're adding socks to the lineup. I really like the premise behind the Notes to Self Socks founded by mom Laura Schmidt. They offer simple…
Whether or not your preschooler actually sleeps during naptime, their teachers will attempt to make such a thing happen. (My kids? Never.) If you have sewing skills, there's something really sweet about making your own napmat for little …
Every time I get to review a product intended for a tiny baby, my heart skips a beat. I love tiny babies. I really do. And though my three are much more than enough for me, I still get wistful when a great baby product comes to my door. …
With an ever-expanding belly and a baby coming any day now, I'm already wistfully thinking about those blissful days when we didn't have to suck in our bellies. (Ha.) I'm hoping to have some semblance of stomach muscles left after the de…
What is it about strollers that makes a big kid want to ride in one as soon as there's a little kid in there? Nothing like a second baby to help you understand the need for a double stroller, even if you thought you were out of the weeds…

My first son turned me into a hard-core babywearer when he made it mighty clear that he hated riding in strollers or car seats. We'd travel everywhere with nothing but our Ergobaby carrier and a diaper or two. Magic! So my ears perked up…
We love the whole premise of Lately Lily, who teaches kids the joy of travel and worldliness--a little like our generation's Eloise, but without the bad attitude. And now kids can start joining her on journeys from birth, with these cute…

When I'm out and about with my three kids, the last thing I want to worry about is whether or not my stroller will be able to handle whatever it is we're doing that day. Will it fit through the doorway at the bank? Will it get stuck in r…
The first time I saw a diaper bag from Petunia Pickle Bottom more than eight years ago, it was love at first sight. Compared to the dowdy black diaper bag I had, it was a revelation to see the bright floral patterns and the attention to …
I consider myself a pretty light packer, but traveling with kids can make an overpacker of the best of us. Especially if a baby is involved. Those tiny people sure don't travel light. Luckily, the wise folks at Phil & Ted's have found a …

I have always loved Bugaboo strollers. They're lovely to look at and easy to push. The design is always exceptional and functional. And they've got pretty darn good street-cred. But until now, my existence in a city that's covered in sno…
Q: Hi! Do you have any suggestions for rubber ducks for the bath or any teething toys that don't have paint that can come off when my 10 month old chews on them? He loves the feel of rubber toys but we worry about the paint that comes of…

You know how it goes. You spend an hour rocking the baby to sleep, carefully tiptoe to the crib, nail the arm-to-mattress transfer, and slip out the door. You're home free. You're almost downstairs to the brownies, wine, and Hannibal. An…
Having lived in big cities through my entire pre-kids existence, I admit to a pretty intense fondness for designs with an urban edge. So it's no surprise I fell hard for this creative, city-inspired collection of cool tees for babies (an…
