Cool Clothes for Kids

Peekaboo Beans, Playwear for Kids on the Grow, has a new winter line that we absolutely love. The "Collecting Thoughts Pants" (pictured here) show off the fun, fashion-forwardness of the line, but here's what really won us over: comfy pre-washed fabrics (French terry and jersey), flat seamless stitching, reversible, mix-and-match styles, tops with thumb loops,drawstring waists trust a mom to think of everything! (Two-year-old Maggie took an outfit for a test drive so we saw the style, versatility and wonderfully washable fabrics firsthand.) Our top picks for boys? The Team Work Pant and Heritage Tee. Check them out at peekaboobeans.com
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.
Stylish Tops for Mom

Whether your body is in pre- or post-baby shape, Canadian-made Luved Clothing is like a dream come true. The versatile, stylish pieces are designed to look great on every body shape (even pregnant!) and can be worn a number of different ways. (With the “Owen,” shown here, you can slip it over your head to create a loose-fitting shirt with a large cowl neck that can be left down for more coverage, or twisted up as it is here.) The soft, comfortable tops are prewashed and custom-dyed and prices range from $75 to $95. Check out all the great styles at luved.ca.

Mini Shoeaholic

We couldn’t resist the Grip n Go Harlow by Pediped. The Mary Jane style is so versatile and the all-natural rubber sole is perfect for early walkers. Plus, all rounded edges mimic the natural shape of your child’s foot, reducing stumbles. Your mini Carrie Bradshaw in training will look her holiday best in these glittery fashions, but even better she’ll be so comfortable she’ll feel almost barefoot.
