You know what I find one of the difficult things about being a parent? Trying to make sure everything that our kids come into contact with is safe.

With so many products being imported to the U.S. and not necessarily being held to the same levels of quality control that domestically made products are, it can be scary.

It’s almost pointless anymore to save older toys because there’s often not a way to Read more…

OK, now I realize this is probably only for the kid who has just about everything, but I saw it and I thought I’d pass it along. If you’re looking for the perfect, indestructible chair that meshes with your contemporary home, then look no further…unless of course you’re on a budget, then this chair isn’t for you (or me!)

Ahh, one can dream, right…

The Argington company was just brought to my attention and I wish I would have seen it two years ago when we were buying our nursery furniture. Not only is the furniture superb, but they are committed to sustainable design and having a minimal impact on the environment.

Modern Stuffed Animals: Toys you and your baby will love

Posted on Dec 13, 2008 by No Comments

Animals, animals everywhere. I’ve been looking for Christmas gifts for all my nieces and nephews and have been finding some real crap.  I see so many stuffed animals that are more hideous than cute. I found some knitted stuffed animals that really are so adorable you and your tiny one will love them.

Check them out at Melange Collection.  They have a whole range of animals – we have the cow and my daughter just loves to chew on it’s ears.  I’d show a picture here, but the thumbnail on the website is too small to see here so go check it out for yourself.  Oh, there are sock monkeys too!  And mobiles!
