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.
Easy On-line Shopping

If you’re like us, you lust over items in the Pottery Barn Kids catalogue only to find they can’t be shipped north of the border. Until now, Canadians have had to settle for in-store items and can’t monogram towels, luggage or stockings with our children’s namesake. As of June 2011, things have changed! Pottery Barn Kids (along with Pottery Barn, and PBteen) now ship to Canada. All costs are inclusive of duty, and shipping rates are comparable to the U.S. The exchange rate is shown at time of purchase and there are no hidden fees.
Best Online Baby Boutique

These fabulous Mitten Leashes (one size fits all!) are just one of many cool kid products you’ll find at Small Potatoes, an all-Canadian online baby boutique specializing in hand-made clothing and accessories. Whether you’re searching for a shower gift or just need something stylish for your own little tot, you’ll find everything from nursing covers, baby carriers and diaper clutches to hats, bibs and adorable dresses.
BONUS: You can save 20% off any Small Potatoes purchase right now by entering the coupon code JUSTTHEFACTS.

Shop like a Star

Admit it. Sometimes you want to act like a celebrity–or at least treat your baby like one. Lucky for us, Canadian-owned website Bebeboo.ca makes it easy to shop like a star. Launched by mother-of-two and graphic designer Rita Hoffman, Bebeboo is easy to navigate and offers unique items stars like Jessica Alba and Angelina Jolie love. One of our favorites? Brad Pitt’s man purse (seen here). The Storksak unisex Jamie diaper bag is as practical as it is sexy. The messenger style bag is so nice you’ll want to tote it long after diapers are done with.

Unique Online Gifts

We’ve never had so much fun shopping for online gifts. So Chic Gifts is like visiting a cool craft venue without leaving your home. The Canadian-based site collaborates with artists and designers from across the world to offer a variety of unique, handmade designer items. So Chic Gifts will even gift wrap your item(s) and send them directly to the lucky recipient.
We especially love the Monkey Business Lunch Bib and Pod (seen here), Traffic Jam Minky Baby Blanket and the Daddy Bag–a messenger bag so hip your husband will actually want to carry your baby’s diapers.
Wall Art For Every Mood

It can be difficult finding an enduring design for your toddler’s room when his tastes can change daily. That’s why we love Little Chipipi Wall Stickers. The removable artwork allows children to create their own designs and change them as often as they like. Stickers can easily be removed and repositioned without damaging walls or leaving residue. Little Chipipi is available in Drive Time, Red Robin or Butterfly designs at RaspberryKids.com, an online store committed to showcasing unique, quality and eco-friendly brands. Raspberry Kids also offers a host of other brands including: Green Toys, Wee-go and Dwellstudio. Just The Facts, Baby readers can enjoy 15% off all Raspberry Kids products until August 31, 2009 by entering the promotional code justthefacts15.
