I'm a hardcore fan of SIGG reusable water bottles. They're seriously durable--and I know, because my kids put them through the wringer, dragging them from school to skatepark. Now I'm in love with a new collaboration between SIGG and Cui…
I'm kind of floored to admit that the new Active Top Smart Drinking System from SIGG absolutely refused to leak no matter how much I abused it. This new line of bottles for adults and kids has a liner that's eco-friendly, BPA-free and ph…
Before I was a cool mom, I was a cool aunt with very high standards. Lucky for me, being a cool aunt in New York City isn't tough, as fabulous boutiques beckon from just about every other corner. But one in particular really captured thi…
My family and I have been longtime Brita fans. That filtered pitcher of tap water is a mainstay in our fridge. But that's pretty tough to keep up on the go, especially when I'm trying to remember to fill four sippy cups for four little k…
Tap water's making a comeback, and here's a great way to share the love. And the water. On the surface, Faucet Face is a company that sells glass water bottles. But behind the scenes, they're trying to start a movement towards tap water …
Why is this new SIGG bottle awesome for Valentine's Day? Because no one can live without water. (And lots of us can't live without Twitter.) It's a child-sized bottle, but I would totally drink from it. Damask, birds, flowers, bright col…
I fully admit to drinking way more bottled water than I should, even though I'm aware of how bad the plastic is for the environment, let alone the risk of water that's been marinating in chemicals used to produce said plastic. But now I'…
Looking for a gift this holiday season that won't take up any more space in the playroom? How about some practical and functional items for your little ones to call all their own? Artist Mayi Carles has a full line of pieces that you can…
Just when you thought that metal water bottles had reached the apex of coolness, we've found the coolest designs around. Yours. (Don't miss a great discount code after the jump!) Wawabots allows you to fully customize your own water bott…
I'm not one to compromise my design taste because I have kids, but I do generally pass by the fancy dishes or ceramic vases at my favorite stores, not having a lot use for them these days. Still, that doesn't mean I have to rid my table …
You can't have a back to school lunchbox without all the cool goodies inside. We'll let you take care of the yummy food and snacks. But we've got you covered when it comes to all the cool accessories that definitely make lunchtime every …
While lots of companies are trying to build a better water bottle (just search water bottle on our site sometime), I'm actually surprised it took Brita so long to get into the game. But now here they are, with a sports bottle that has on…
We've been such fans of Beatrix NY over the years (you might know them as Dante Beatrix), because everything they make is pretty much awesome. Their motley little menagerie of creatures range from robots to bunnies to not-particularly-sc…
If your resolution includes cutting back on plastic water bottles, and doing it with style (what? that could be a resolution) then we have an awesome new option for you. Café Press has teamed up with Paul Frank to create a design-your-ow…
"Gosh, honey. I'd love to give you my water bottle and have you spit a bunch of germs and floaty pieces of avocado into it," I said. "But Mommy's new bottle is GLASS, so it's not for kids." ...and that's how I finally got to taste normal…
Cool Mom Picks favorite Poketo has a very simple philosophy: Make real art available to everyday people. Which is good, because I'm at my local SuperTarget pretty much every day, and that's where their latest collection will land on Augu…
Sure, my husband is happy with his solid blue, no-name water bottle. But he also eats the exact same ham sandwich every day and owns an endless army of white socks. Me, I want my environmentally conscious, BPA-free water bottle to be as …
We all know that drinking lots of water is essential, especially since this summer has been hella-hot. And while the reusable bottle movement is hardly new, these special-edition Fill. Drink. Repeat. bottles from Klean Kanteen give you e…
Remember when CafePress first launched? They offered what seemed to me like a whole lot of not much, onto which you could have imprinted your website logo or your dog's photo. Because you know, everyone needs a dog photo lucite key chain…
Our kids have been separating paper from plastics since they were only yea high, but today on America Recycles Day , we're taking a look at the RecycleBank website for Tessa Hills' Recycling Tips for Kids to find easy ways to make big ch…
Since the recent revelation that SIGG bottle liners contain BPA, we've been on the look out for more alternatives made of stainless steel and not aluminum, which requires a liner in the first place. There's the Safe Sporter which we've f…
Like so many of you, we were super bummed to discover last week that SIGG bottles are not BPA-free. But after a few minutes of being bummed, we had this idea: What if, instead of everyone just tossing out their bottles, we ask one of our…
It's disheartening to support a brand like SIGG for making safer, BPA-free drinking bottles for kids and adults when it turns out that nope, that wasn't the situation at all. Or as the old saying goes, "we was played." News broke this we…
I pack school lunches for my kids every day. I don't mind actually making the lunches; it's the packaging that gets me, all those little plastic bags bound for the trash, stored in a garish character tie-in lunchbox. That part is depress…
