The Stack ‘n Roll Little Golf by B kids is a great toy for so many reasons. It encourages my 11 ½ month old girl to use her motor skills, cognitive skills, and best of all, her creativity. I am the kind of mom who wants my child to learn while she is having fun playing, as I am sure most moms do, and it is very rewarding watching her develop right in front of my eyes by finding new ways to play with this toy and its various parts. This toy comes with two golf balls (one makes noise when …
The Toss ‘n Dunk Elephant Hoop by B kids has definitely given my 11 month old girl tons of entertainment. Usually toys keep her interest for a few days and she moves on but this toy has her captivated and she plays with it constantly. We have had it for three weeks so far and it is still the toy to which she pays the most attention. Although this toy is recommended for ages 12 months and up, I thought I would introduce it to her at 11 months to see if she could enjoy it. Sure enough, it has …
Milkalicious has a new line of clothing, M2, made up of comfortable loungewear for the pregnant or nursing woman. This line was created by Jayme Gomez, former fashion publicist and wife to Black Eyed Peas singer Taboo, along with the President of Milkalicious, Jennifer Ritchie, a former lactation consultant. So normally I really don’t pay much attention to the resumes of those designing my clothing, however, this duo’s knowledge of a pregnant or nursing woman’s needs are clearly …
Ever since becoming a mom, I’ve been a stickler for finding non-toxic, eco-friendly products for my family. So, you can imagine my eagerness to try the new bath, body and cleaning products from The Honest Company, a business recently started by actress Jessica Alba and former Healthy Child Healthy World CEO Christopher Gavigan (both parents themselves) that is committed to health and sustainability. Serving the busy mom who wants the best for her family, The Honest Company delivers right …
Symphony in B. from B. Toys stands out for being feature rich and extremely well executed. This highly sophisticated and entertaining musical toy offers your child an entire orchestra to experiment with and teaches your child about instruments, tempo, colors, shapes and more. While Symphony in B. is labeled for children aged 3-13 years, it brings appeal to a much wider age range. My daughter loves this toy at 18 months and quickly learned how to move the instruments into place to play …

As a full-time working mom preparing to send her four-month-old to day care, I was very excited to try out the Milkies Milk-Saver, especially since it can be hard to collect a large stockpile of milk while feeding a growing baby.The idea of the Milk-Saver is simple: collect all the milk that leaks out from the non-nursing side during feedings and from random letdowns. Remembering how many shirts, nursing pads, and bras I’ve soaked through, I figured this could certainly add up!! While pumping …
I received the Lucky Coin Necklace from Isabelle Grace Jewelry yesterday and immediately I felt not only beautiful, but also lucky (I got a compliment on it right away as well!) The necklace is even more stunning and elegant in person that it appears on the website. The three dainty charms on the 18” silver chain hang together really nicely and have just enough weight to them so that the chain lies perfectly on my chest. The length of the chain makes it great to wear either with a v-neck or a …
Interestingly, the Tivoli Couture NuComfort stroller pad makes me feel better when my baby uses it. However I’ve always thought our umbrella stroller just doesn’t provide enough support for my baby’s back. When I put her in the stroller, I feel guilty thinking I am sacrificing my baby’s comfort for the convenience of the lightweight, collapsible stroller. Enter the NuComfort stroller pad which is made of the memory foam, the same kind we have in our memory foam pillow. It adds …
We gave the QuickSmart Backpack Stroller the ultimate test by taking it up and down steep, uneven sidewalks and through a crowded Farmers Market. How did it do? We loved it! Check out the full pros and cons:PROS- Once you’ve had practice folding and unfolding it a couple times, converting this stroller from one state to another is really easy! It only took a couple minutes to collapse it in the middle of a crowded sidewalk. The ability to throw the stroller on your back is great for those …
