For Your Little Scholar

24 Aug

It’s always important to have the right tools for the job.  Quality tools are important as well.  So send your little scholar off to school with the right tools–art supplies from Faber-Castell. This supply kit includes jumbo triangular colored ecopencils with sharpener, a set of 12 broad line jumbo markers, a set of 24 jumbo triangular grip crayons, recycled newsprint paper roll, and children’s safety scissors.

The pencils in this art set are eco-certified–made from reforested wood that preserves natural forests.  All the items are specially designed to fit small hands and to be easy to grip.  The markers contain washable ink–I can’t tell you how important that is.  And the safety scissors can be used by “righties” or “lefties.”

This set of art supplies would make a great gift for a budding artist as well as a great back-to-school purchase.

High-Style Diaper Bag

23 Aug

Is this bag fabulous or what?  (I’d carry this as a purse!)  The Banana Fish Milan diaper bag is a super-stylish bag that looks more like a designer purse than a typical diaper bag–and that’s a good thing.

Just because your typical diaper bag contains diapers, wipes, a spare onesie and a bottle or two doesn’t mean it has to be a pastel bag with Beatrix Potter characters all over it.   After all, diaper bags are for the parents.  Save the baby-themed prints for crib sheets, bibs and sleepers.

This jacquard bag boasts leather accents and hidden loops to attach it to your stroller handles.  There are also two insulated bottle holders and two interior pockets for organization, as well as a matching changing pad and dirty-duds pouch.

You may be a parent, but that doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice style for function.  This diaper bag proves you can have both!

How Does Your Baby Grow?

16 Aug

If you’re expecting and wondering exactly what your baby looks like during each phase of your pregnancy, National Geographic has it all covered for you with the In the Womb DVD.  This high-quality video (what else do you expect from National Geographic?) gives you want a book of still pictures can’t.   It includes month-by-month stages and developmental milestones.

National Geographic combines computer images with 3D and 4D ultrasound to achieve a comprehensive picture of conception and pregnancy.  The video concludes with a birth scene.

If you’re interested in how the unborn baby develops, and you’re not into books, this video is for you.  It’s a great gift for expectant parents as well!

Book Shelf: The Perfect Baby Handbook

7 Aug

When you’ve had enough of the too-serious, too-competitive and too-high-pressure attitudes about raising your children, the first place you go is to a like-minded BFF who can tell you how to take it easy.  No BFF nearby? Then grab The Perfect Baby Handbook and get a good laugh.

This is truly funny stuff.  Sure, on the outside it looks like it’s a serious reference manual–but get a load of the subtitle:  “A Guide for Excessively Motivated Parents.”  This book spoofs everything from designer fashions for babies to baby names and minute-by-minute schedules.  You’ll find chapters on competitive breastfeeding and socioeconomically-appropriate strollers, as well as how to perfectly place baby silverware in a formal dinner setting.  In other words, everything is covered, and skewered, by author Dale Hrabi.

Whether you’re an expectant parent or already raising your children, you’ll enjoy this wickedly humorous spoof on the perfect-parenting genre.  Because all parents need a good laugh every now and again, even (perhaps especially) at their own expense.

Have fun this weekend, and visit again on Monday to check out the new additions to our Basket of Bargains!

So Retro!

5 Aug

You probably had one of these as a kid.  Surprise–they still make them, and they’re super-popular! Despite the fact that there are few children who will ever see a phone that resembles this one–with a cord connecting the handset and the base, never mind one with a dial rather than push-buttons, little ones just can’t resist playing with this classic toy.

My kids always loved playing with the Fisher-Price Chatter Phone, just as I did when I was little.  How cute is this phone?  With a colorful dial and a pull-string that will entice beginning walkers to take their phone along, it’s lots of fun.  And when you pull the phone by the string, the eyes move up and down and the phone “chatters.”  A bell rings when you spin the dial, and retro packaging completes the old-fashioned fun.
