Top parenting stories this week
From baby toys and cool threads to store openings and things to do with your little one. We cover the new, the old favourites and the best-kept secrets for everything baby.
The Best Balance Bikes
Help your toddler take to two wheels with a new balance bike for spring. With no pedals to get in the way, balance bikes teach kids ages one through five how to ride a two-wheeler–without training wheels! For instance, the KinderBike (pictured here) is lightweight, sturdy and comes with a lifetime warranty. It’s easy to adjust, easy to control, easy to stop and steer, and easy to assemble (just insert the handle bars and tighten). At Balance Bikes Canada you’ll also find eco-friendly, wooden balance bikes (Runners and Kiddimoto), the popular Strider (small and light enough for an 18-month-old) and the 2-in-1 Hobby bike (converts to a regular bike when your child is ready).

Reinventing the Wheels
We've always loved their car seats, so we're really excited that Britax has a new stroller to help tote babies (and toddlers!) around town. The B-Ready stroller is the most versatile set of baby wheels on the market. It can be converted from a single to a double child system and offers 14 possible seating configurations including seats, bassinets and infant car seats. There are forward and rear facing options, multi-position reclines and a large canopy to shield your baby from the sun. Full suspension makes for a smooth ride and the adjustable top handles make sure mom and dad are comfortable while they push.
Eco-Friendly Popsicle Molds
When it comes to healthy treats for kids, nothing beats a popsicle on a warm sunny day. So when we discovered these stainless steel popsicle molds, we just had to share them! Durable, food safe and earth friendly, the stainless steel ensures popsicles freeze fast. The mold is also easy to clean and lasts a lifetime. The molds are designed so you can take them out one at a time for a single serving, or several all at once if you’re hosting a playdate – each stand comes with six molds and lids, as well as 12 silicone rings to ensure proper stick placement. thetickletrunk.com

Baby's First Journals
We'll never forget those early days when we couldn't remember which breast we'd last fed our newborns on, or the last time they soiled their diapers. Ah, those hazy, crazy days of early motherhood! So, naturally, trust a mom to come up with the perfect solution: Baby's First Journal from Glow Baby. The stylish journal slips easily into any diaper bag and is a sleeping, feeding and diapering log that also helps you keep track of your baby's growth and chart her milestones and special moments. Glow Baby recently added Baby's First Foods, a diary designed to help you identify food likes, dislikes, sensitivities and potential allergies. (There's also a spot for recording favourite recipes and weekly menu planning.) glowbaby.ca

Celebrity Swaddles
There’s a reason why stars like Heidi Klum (seen here), Sandra Bullock and Julia Roberts swaddle their babies in aden & anais–their swaddle blankets are stylish and practical. The swaddle blankets were created by mother of four and Australian native Raegan Moya-Jones when she saw the lack of muslin cotton blankets available in the United States. A common swaddling fabric in Australia, muslin is light, breathable and prevents overheating. Plus, the aden & anais swaddle blanket’s generous 47 by 47 size makes it easy to swaddle babies of all ages. The blanket can also be used as a nursing cover, stroller cover or burp cloth.
