Ready to Read

The younger cousin of Leap Frog’s Tag Learning system is perfect for kids ages one to four. The interactive Tag Junior Book Pals help kids interact with books and learn new preschool skills. We love that parents can connect the Tag Junior to their computers to see how their child is doing, learn more about their child’s interests and learn new ways to engage them with reading.

Sea Creatures

We love the creativity of boon’s Creatures. Free of BPA, phthalates and PVC, these fish are as functional as they are cute. Your child can mix and match parts to create new underwater species, scoop up water and bubbles, or squirt a sibling. The basic design invites creativity and lets your child create whatever sea creatures their heart desires.

Child-Safe Knives

Our little chefs love to help us out in the kitchen but when it comes to cutting and chopping they usually have to stand by and watch. Not anymore. Curious Chef has designed a set of three nylon cooking knives, save for all ages. The serrated edges actually work, so your kids can slice and dice in safety. This great product is available at www.spoonsisters.com

Natural Nail Polish for Kids

Our husbands weren’t overjoyed when our two-year-old sons decided to be the testers for Piggy Paint nail polish (especially since the shade was Girls Rule! Magenta), but even they couldn’t resist painting their nails (they called it “finger painting”) with Piggy Paint. Stay-at-home mom Melanie Hurley designed the kid-friendly nail polish so she wouldn’t have to worry when her daughters put their freshly painted fingers in their mouths. The water-based nail polish is non-toxic and odorless and dries in about a minute. It’s easy to apply–as our young testers can attest–and goes on ultra smooth.
