Aug 4 july & august forest find: kinderville
Email Post Print Post

We have been having so much fun with Kinderville products in our house this past month! As a part of the July & August Forest Finds, I was eager to give everything a test run.

And then I found this recipe for Banana Ice cream that involved 1 ingredient: bananas. Banana Ice cream (healthy!) + Kinderville Ice Pop Molds = perfect summertime treat!

Following this simple recipe, the kids & I made the ice cream (though i also added a tad of milk & a big scoop of almond butter), scooped it in the Ice Pop Molds and then popped them in the freezer for a few hours.

The result? A totally healthy treat -- creamy & quite fun to eat.

Nothing quite like a little... custom. Name Your Design's poster & canvas wall art prints are customized to include you child's name in the design. The ABC print really catches my eye.

May 11 new! hushamok
Email Post Print Post

It's true. Some babies will not lie on a flat, stationary surface (think cribs & bassinets) and peacefully sleep. These babes need the constant soothing motion & coziness of the womb. I know this quite well, my firstborn was such a baby that never chilled out unless he was snuggled in & moooooooving.

This is why the Hushamok Baby Hammock is absolutely brilliant -- it's been designed to mimic a womb like environment. Which is gold for parents whose baby is not down with being static. The Hushamok Leafspring reproduces a gentle rhythmic, gently rocking motion which helps babies sleep better and longer.

Bravo!

Icing on the cake?
- The whole Hushamok Dream Hammock Set is lightweight & portable (even comes with it's own travel bag!)
- The Hammock & the fitted sheets are made from 100% Turkish organic cotton. Organic!
- Versatility? Of course. The Hushamok Organic Myseat uses the same stand to create a cozy little seat to sooth & comfort your little one during the day.

May 4 NEW! kokopax carriers.
Email Post Print Post

We love Kokopax. Not only has Kokopax brought back the classic frame style carrier for the everyday, but they've brought it back in extreme style.



New for 2010, Kokopax has launched 2 new carrier styles (in addition to their "classic" carrier): the Eco Carrier and the City Carrier. While the differences between the carriers are subtle (strap style, fabric content) the purpose remains the same: keep baby happy and your hands free as you breeze through daily life.
