baby chew toy

noreply@blogger.com (Niki) — Mon, 17 Aug 2009 17:22:00 +0000

I thought this was a super cute toy for a new baby. I love the design of it. The name of it is Vulli Chan Pie Gnon Soft Chew Toy, Pink - good luck pronouncing it! I still love it though.

Truly a Happy Plate

noreply@blogger.com (Niki) — Thu, 06 Aug 2009 20:01:00 +0000

Now your kid can reall make a happy plate. Fred and Friends Food Plate is just like that old toy you used to have where you take the magnetic pieces and make facial hair shapes in them. How fun would it be to do it with your food?

Go Ahead - Play with Your Food

noreply@blogger.com (Niki) — Thu, 06 Aug 2009 19:58:00 +0000

We have always played airplane when trying to get both of our girls to eat. The youngest really took to it and we can get her to eat anything if we make it an airplane. I wonder what she would really do if her for was in the shape of an airplane.

what time is it?

This Mellissa and Doug clock is the cutest. i think my youngest would love to play with this toy. for the next occasion it will for sure be a gift for her!

Perfect for the Pool

noreply@blogger.com (Niki) — Tue, 23 Jun 2009 20:34:00 +0000

I looked at every website and finally found a beach bag I love. It's super huge and was on $15. 3 towels, all of our toys, huge water bottle, snacks... you name it and we stick it in there. Not to mention I love the fact it was so cheap. It's made of plastic so you can stick anything in there whether it's wet or dry.

swimsuit season

noreply@blogger.com (Niki) — Tue, 23 Jun 2009 20:12:00 +0000

I know I missed the boat almost to get my youngest her swimsuit, but the nice part is I found one I loved for half the price. I love all of Kate Mack's swimsuit line for children, but they are too expensive. I found a similar one though at Janie and Jack. I just ordered it, so I can't wait to get it in the mail.

Shoes that Grow

noreply@blogger.com (Niki) — Tue, 23 Jun 2009 20:06:00 +0000

I came across this website and thought it was super cool. Basically these are shoes that can grow with the child. On the bottom it has the size, so as you pull it the size gets larger. Pretty neat. I know I have donated tons of shoes that never got worn out. It's a good idea to have a pair that actually can grow with the child! That's one of those "I wish I thought of that." Here is the link: http://www.inchwormshoes.com/

fropper

noreply@blogger.com (Niki) — Wed, 06 May 2009 16:04:00 +0000

We were at our local Learning Tree and the lady handed one of these to my 3 year old. She went all over the store bouncing and triking on it. I felt like she wouldn't get to much use from it, since she is already 3. However, it would be perfect for a 2 year old to grow into. It seemed pretty durable and it also folds up for easy storage, which is an extra bonus.

hullabaloo

noreply@blogger.com (Niki) — Wed, 06 May 2009 15:58:00 +0000

This game by Cranium is great for indoors or outdoors. Any age can play it. Our girls play with it outside a ton. Basically, you just lay out shapes with colors and pictures on them all over the ground. Then you have a console that announces what to do next. They do crazy dances, they crawl to their spots, just a ton of different imaginative things to do.

doodle car

noreply@blogger.com (Niki) — Wed, 06 May 2009 15:42:00 +0000

I came across this when scouting the internet and thought it was a great idea. Aqua doodle has something similar, but this is done with marker instead of by pen. It's called the doodle track car by Daydream Toy. You just use a black marker and it will follow wherever you wrote. I know both my girls will love it!

chair and tables

noreply@blogger.com (Niki) — Sun, 03 May 2009 19:08:00 +0000

I wanted a little set of chair and tables for my 3 year old's room for her to have tea parties. I didn't want to spend a lot of money, but at the same time I didn't want a cheap set. I looked all over the place and finally found this set at IKEA for super cheap. It was solid wooden set, so I could easily stain or paint them. I ended up painting the chairs pink and the table white. Now my girls have a place to color, play games, and have their tea parties!

mini mork and mindy chair

noreply@blogger.com (Niki) — Sun, 03 May 2009 19:06:00 +0000

I saw this at IKEA on our trip to GA and it was super cute. When the kid gets in it the top rolls down completly over them. It also can spin in circles. It comes in several colors too. I added it to my want list, b/c it was to big to get on the plane.

new type of foot pillow

noreply@blogger.com (Niki) — Sun, 03 May 2009 18:34:00 +0000

We just went on a trip to Georgia and the first place I wanted to go to was IKEA. We found this great pillow for my daughter of course she picked it in pink. She wears it on her feet at night, so they don't get cold. She asked me last night if she could walk with them on her feet. I told her that she could try if she wanted to, but I guess she decided against it.

monster head rest

noreply@blogger.com (Niki) — Thu, 30 Apr 2009 18:57:00 +0000

This is new by Trunki (you know the guys that make that really cool ride on suitcase.) I love the crazy head rest they now have. I don't know if it's hit the US yet, but they are showing it on their site.

make the car ride a little more comfortable

noreply@blogger.com (Niki) — Thu, 30 Apr 2009 13:34:00 +0000

I found this product called "go anywhere table and footrest." It's designed to keep your kids from getting pain from when their legs and feet fall asleep. It is compatible with a carseat or a booster. If you are planning a long trip in the car this would come in super handy. They can play games and draw with the tray that comes with it. It also can be purchased without the tray.

a baby teether that's stylish

noreply@blogger.com (Niki) — Thu, 30 Apr 2009 13:24:00 +0000

I came across this bracelet by Oh Plah. It's made to allow your teething babies to chew on it. It's comes in several colors and 3 different designs. I love the look of them. Not to mention - how handy would it be if you were somewhere like a dr's appt and your baby started fussing, to pull of your bracelet and hand it to them. You don't have to worry about small parts coming off and hurting them.

a light you will want to eat

noreply@blogger.com (Niki) — Thu, 30 Apr 2009 13:21:00 +0000

If any mom out there is like me and is stuck watching iCarly quite a bit then you have seen this gummi bear light before. It sits on the kitchen counter next to their computer. I was searching around on the interenet and just happened to come across it. I love the design that's made by Jellio and it's perfect for any playroom.

Petunia Pickle Bottom

noreply@blogger.com (Niki) — Thu, 30 Apr 2009 12:55:00 +0000

Not only do I love the name of this company, but I love their products. I had my eye on this clutch forever. I never did get it, b/c when I found this diaper clutch my daughter was already potty training. I knew it wouldn't be long until I didn't need to carry diapers around. She also potty trained at a very young age compared to my oldest. Anyway, this clutch opens up to have a place for diapers and wipes and it has a pull out changing pad. It's super cute and stylish. They come in all colors and sizes, but for some reason I have always been drawn to this one. I think it's called Cake.

create your own tv show

noreply@blogger.com (Niki) — Wed, 29 Apr 2009 20:28:00 +0000

This TV is like no other. You stick it on the wall and you have an instant chalk board. It's retro design goes great in any kids playroom. It's by Esteal Lugo who has done several other wall decal designs. I just really thought this one was a clever idea!

create a bib

noreply@blogger.com (Niki) — Wed, 29 Apr 2009 20:22:00 +0000

This is a cool idea and we love this product. It basically can make an ordinary restaurant napkin and turn it into a bib. It comes in handy for the diaper bag. You don't have to worry about packing a bib everytime you leave the house. It's made by Kipiis and comes in several colors.

book rack

noreply@blogger.com (Niki) — Wed, 29 Apr 2009 17:51:00 +0000

I have been wanting a book rack forever for my youngest daughter's room. I have my eye on this one, which is at Land of Nod. I am waiting for it to go on sale. I plan to put it on the lower part of the wall, so she has easy access to it. It's pefect for her room. Pottery Barn Kids has a 3 tier one as well. My sister-in-law has that one and it's very nice. However, I just want a smaller more horizontal then vertical one, so this one would be perfect.

heelarious....

noreply@blogger.com (Niki) — Wed, 29 Apr 2009 17:34:00 +0000

I saw this item in a baby boutique near our house and loved it! What a cute idea. What little baby girl wouldn't want to accessorize with these cute heels? They are made by Heelarious and are very soft. It would be a cute shower gift for that fashionable mommy!

for all secret treasures

noreply@blogger.com (Niki) — Wed, 29 Apr 2009 17:28:00 +0000

My seven year old got this for her birthday last year and loved it. She puts all of her favorite items in her secret safe. She has a little sister, so it's nice to have a place where she can stash something and her little sister can't get it. It has a combination and a little dinging alarm that rings when the door is opened. My daughter can leave the comination on the bottom of the safe still, b/c her sister wouldn't be able to figure it out. If you google pink safe it comes up on several websites. We found hers in a boutique near out house.

fatboy

noreply@blogger.com (Niki) — Tue, 28 Apr 2009 17:18:00 +0000

My sister-in-law got one of these for her house and one for my mother-in-laws house. At first I thought it would be annoying, b/c it's so large and in the middle of the floor. However, the kids loved it! My girls will take naps on it when it's laid out, then they become perfect chairs when they are folded in half. They also have fatboy juniors now too.

ball sprinkler

noreply@blogger.com (Niki) — Tue, 28 Apr 2009 17:12:00 +0000

I saw this from Fisher Price come out last year and now I noticed Pottery Barn Kids came out with one similar (both are pictured) this year. I think this would a fun toy for the girls this summer, so I am for sure going to put this on my wanted list for the girls. It looks like it would be a fun summer activity we can do when it's super hot.
