5 Little Monkeys Chain Link Mobile
WiggyRoll
The WiggyRoll ($29.95) is one of those items that are just so “duh” after you start using it. It’s the first blanket designed specifically for use with infant carriers. It tucks into your carrier with zero overhang, and the detachable fastening system allows you to take it on and off without waking up baby. Tuck their legs in, pull the blanket over and let ‘em go in cushy fleece comfort. Seriously, where has this been all our lives?!?
Age Design HiLo Chair
The last time you swiveled in your chair, Dad, you were drunk and you spun off. If only you had the HiLo High Chair from Age Design ($298.99). This amazing high chair converts to an under-the-table chair with one swivel. (Take your child out first, please.) It’s safe for kids 6 months to 6 years, and fortunately, since you’ll have it for years, it also LOOKS great with any décor. Just stay off, DAD…
Car Seat Rain and Wind Cover
You can’t keep them in a bubble, but the Car Seat Rain and Wind Cover from Sasha’s ($32.95) is the next best thing! This super-tough cover is completely translucent for two-way vision, fully ventilated, waterproof, rated at 67.7% blockage of UVA/UVB rays and compatible with all canopied car seats. Not that we encourage strolling in a monsoon or blizzard, but peace of mind is worth everything, right? And bubble wrap is just too much fun to pop…
Silly Souls Dude Shoes
Duuuuude! We love the ladies, but Silly Souls Dude Shoes from Babygags ($19.99) are all about the testosterone, starting with the male gender symbol on the back and DUDE on the fastener. And your dude will be eco-friendly in addition to styling: these guys kick it au natural with all vegan material. They run from 0-24 months and come in a collectible lunch box. And a percentage of the proceeds goes to Feed the Children. DUDE, come on!
Bee Backpack
It’s not just the bees knees. The Bee Backpack from ModMama ($23) is the whole damn bee! On their back! This adorable backpack will have them buzzing from hive to hive, getting ooohs and aaahs at every turn. There’s no shortage of room, or of precious, so load up with books and snacks and watch ‘em score…mega cute points.
Sosi and Zora Artistic Baby-Wear
Your child is one-of-a-kind. Get them a onesie as unique as they are from Sosi and Zora Designs ($25 tee, $35 onesie, $45 hoodie or $125 or $135 for gift packs). These precious onesies and tees are custom ordered, custom made and custom fit for your little one. Pick a letter and pick an illustration. There will never be another like your baby, and there will never be another onesie or tee like this.
Alex Toys Super Art Table
We colored on the table as kids. And we got sent to our rooms! Your kids, however, can go nuts with the Super Art Table from Alex Toys. ($250) This is the Swiss Army Knife of toy sets! It’s a hardwood table with chalkboard surface, with built-in cup holders, a paper roll holder, paper cutter, lead-free finish and a canvas storage bag. And did we mention the chalkboard surface? Your table and walls are safe. For now…
Appaman Motorcycle Girl Jacket
Its badass style for your little badass chick with the Motorcycle Girl Jacket from Appaman. ($93) This 100% polyester shell and fill jacket is hell on tricycle wheels. It runs from 12 months to size 7, and will spin heads on every block. Pull up that kickstand and ride! A life of cool starts here…
DiaperBuds
Good things come in small, individually wrapped, vacuum-sealed packages. DiaperBuds ($1 for 2, $6.99 for 8, $18.99 for 24) are gen-u-wine full-size diapers, tucked into an individual pouch that takes up 70% less space than a free-floating diaper. Seriously! They’re perfect for anytime you’re on the run: no need to lug around a loaded diaper bag anymore. Just stick a few diapers in your pocket and go! Diaper blowouts should always be so easy.
