▬the goody
bag
Every mom
will receive a goody bag which includes the
following:
* colors & patterns may vary and products
are subject to change
It's a pacifier, it's a toy, it's a
WubbaNub™! Invented by
a mom and dad who were frustrated that their
baby fussed and cried all night long, the
WubbaNub™ is a simple yet ingenious way to
help baby keep pacifier (and plush friend)
close. They are available in a variety of
animals and colors and are just so cute!
Don't forget to send in a photo of your baby
with his/her favorite WubbaNub™ (send
to
customerservice@wubbanub.com).
From pregnancy to preschool and beyond,
sometimes
kids make us want to pull out our hair. Moms
will feel better instantly with the
luxurious
TIGI
line. We love the
Health Factor Sulfate-Free Daily Dose
Shampoo,
a sulfate-free shampoo that nourishes and
strengthens while promoting healthy hair and
adding lustrous shine. The
Health Factor Sulfate-Free Daily Dose
Conditioner
is designed to help repair damage and smooth
the hair while maintaining natural body.
Both contain a fortifying Healthy Hair
Complex of Nettle, Yucca, White Ginger,
Horsetail and Rosemary designed to promote
healthy hair and scalp for fuller, stronger
hair.
Kids and parents will love the
Snack Ball
by
Boon,
a fun, sphere-shaped snack container. The
rigid form protects snacks from crushing,
making the Snack Ball great for travel. Two
halves unscrew for easy cleaning and the lid
snaps in place to keep snacks inside. It's
perfect for those little hands! 
 Epicuren
Baby has launched a new line of
skincare products in conjunction with famed
photographer Anne Geddes. The award-winning
photographer’s
unpublished images adorn the company’s new
line of luxuriously all-natural baby
skincare products. These all natural,
certified organic ingredients and signature
episencial aromatherapy are designed
specifically to enhance the bonding
experience between baby and mom. The
products include daily wash, daily lotion
and zinc diaper spray.
  The
innovative
Play & Learn Baby Spoon by
Baby Human
is a dual-ended spoon that is
ergonomically-shaped to reduce frustration
for our budding table eaters. The spoon is
intended to be used prior to an
infant/toddler actually needing it to eat.
This allows a child to target the path from
table to mouth so when they are full fledged
table eaters there are less mishaps and
increased success.
 Ever
wonder what great products pediatrician moms
could come up with? Meet
MD Moms,
board-certified pediatricians and moms who
were inspired by the needs of their patients
and own children to create Baby Silk,
the first pediatrician-developed
skincare line for babies. We love
the sunscreen towelettes
which are
convenient for travel and to toss in a
diaper bag. They offer a mess-free and
convenient all-over sun protection and are
made with ingredients that are safe and
gentle for baby.
With so many ways for
kids to be distracted, even the most
attentive parents find it challenging to
keep track of their children. Created by a
mom who briefly lost her own child,
Spot Me ID
is a unique line of child safety ID items,
including the Temporary Tattoos that
you write your name and cell phone number
on. Spot Me ID is “Keeping Kids Safe in
Public Places.”
  Plug
covers were a necessary evil. Difficult to
put in, harder to pull out. We love the
Safety 1st Press 'n
Pull Plug Protectors
because they have an easy pop-out
tab for parent-only use. Say
goodbye to chipped nails. Also, don't worry
about losing them - they clip right to your
vacuum cord when cleaning so you'll know
just where you left them. Genius. |

There are so
many great
products for
today's parent,
and then there
are some that
stand above the
rest. The
Stokke™ Sleepi™
crib system
grows with your
newborn
from a
bassinet, to a
crib, to a
toddler bed, to
a
junior bed or
sofa, to
twin chairs.
The Stokke™
Sleepi™ bassinet
is only 26.5
inches wide,
making it very
easy to move
from room to
room. By gently
rocking the
bassinet on its
wheels, you can
also simulate
stroller motion
that will soothe
your baby and
help her to
sleep (the
wheels are
lockable for
safety). The
basic crib can
be used from
birth. As your
child develops
and grows, you
can change and
adjust the
mattress height
positions to
grow along with
her. When your
child is old
enough to get
out of the bed,
you can remove
one side for
easy access.
This converts
Stokke™ Sleepi™
into an ideal
toddler bed. The
Stokke™ Sleepi™
can convert into
comfortable bed
at night, and a
relaxing sofa
during the day.
It’s great for
play areas, and
fun for your
child. No
other crib has
this versatility
- Stokke™
Sleepi™ can be
used from birth
through approx.
7 years of age
and can
eventually be
converted into
two stylish
chairs.
Brand new, the
Stokke® Table
Top
promotes family
life around the
table, which
enhances social
contact and
learning by
conversation and
observation. It
can be attached
directly onto
the table and
has 6
interchangeable
templates which
were developed
with guidance
from an
educationalist.
The templates
are great tools
for interaction
and bonding. You
can use them as
backdrops for
storytelling,
challenging the
imagination; and
learning about
animals, colors,
shapes, sizes,
numbers and the
alphabet. The
Table Top has a
smooth surface
that is easy to
clean by simply
wiping with damp
cloth, and has a
spilling rail to
prevent liquid
from leaking and
suction cups to
keep it in place
while a child
can enjoy a meal
and practice
feeding herself.
It’s all about
growing,
developing, and
bonding.

 Have
two kids? Appropriate from birth
with an independent 5-position
recline, the
Maclaren
Twin Techno
is built for comfort and
performance. We love the dual
hoods (trust us, these will help
avoid sibling bickering) and
that it comes with a choice of
two colorful comfort packs. It
is lightweight, has a carry
handle for easy portability, can
be folded with one hand in 5
seconds and has front wheel
suspension, extendable
leg rests, height adjustable
shoulder harnesses, a raincover
and fits through standard
doorways.
The
Maclaren Volo is
the lightest and simplest
stroller on the go. Appropriate
from 6 months, this 8.6 pound
stroller has all of Maclaren's
usual safety features as well as
a breathable mesh seat (perfect
for the Texas summers).
 For
your little one, check out
Maclaren's Junior Techno XT.
This doll-size stroller is
styled in fresh navy and apple
green and has true-to-life size
details and functionality.

 Introducing
Freestyle®
by
Medela®,
the first rechargeable,
hands-free, double-electric
breastpump that weighs less than
a pound, is truly portable and
powerful enough to empty both
breasts simultaneously.
Freestyle offers a number of new
features including a
rechargeable battery
that affords three hours of
pumping time with a single cha rge,
a bright LCD screen, making it
easy to read pumping information
during night use. Its
programmable memory allows moms
to record their preferred
pumping pattern, and a one-touch
let-down button allows for
faster milk flow. Freestyle’s
hands-free accessories attach
easily to most nursing bras and
the motor can be worn on the
waist with the adjustable belt,
or placed on mom’s lap or a
table. And it comes in a stylish
black microfiber tote bag for
discreet and easy portability.
Freedom is born.

OiOi
Sophisticated Baby Bags
are the brainchild of Lisa
Bennetts. More than 10 years ago
she gave birth to a beautiful
baby girl, Isabella, who gave
her the inspiration to create a
label that empowered mothers to
have the confidence to look
amazing and feel equally as
good. With a wealth of
experience in fashion and
accessories product development,
the birth of Lisa's daughter
sparked the idea for a stylish
yet functional baby bag. OiOi
bags have led the way for over a
decade and are the
original and essential style
accessory
that mothers around the world
love almost as much as the
little ones themselves. They are
stylish, innovative and
practical bags known for their
superb quality and
reliability. Our
favorites are the
Messenger in Grey
Dot/Lime, the Hobo
in Black/White Floral, the Cocoa
Giraffe Tote
and the Carry All
in Black/Off White Canvas
Eyelet.

 Introducing
the new Babysitter
Balance, an improved
model of the
BABYBJÖRN® Babysitter 1-2-3.
BABYBJÖRN® Babysitter Balance
cradles your child while
transforming baby's smallest
movements into a soothing,
rocking motion. Sitting cozy and
secure your child can sleep,
rest, or take part in the things
going on around him/her. There
is no need for batteries as your
baby's movements are converted
into a comfortable rocking
motion. And, when baby falls
asleep, the motion stops so baby
does not become accustomed to
needing movement to sleep. With
the restraint removed, the
sitter becomes a comfortable
rocking chair for an older
child. All fabrics are machine
washable and contain no
harmful substances. Adjusts to
three positions for play, rest
and sleep.

than before. The BuggyBoard Maxi

tubing, giving your toddler a
safe and secure place to ride
along for the stress free
outings in crowds, high traffic

a smoother ride; a waffled,
anti-slip surface that offers
your toddler a safe, anti-slip
foothold;
"sunken" surface that offers

when not in use. Suitable for
children from two to five years. |

 This
is not your ordinary infant tub!
The
4moms Cleanwater Infant Tub
with Built-in Digital
Thermometer™ brings a
fresh approach to infant
bathing. The unique design
enables running faucet water to
create a gentle circulating flow
within the tub, cradling baby in
clean, warm water. The fast
responding
digital thermometer
makes it easy to set and
maintain a comfortable water
temperature. The water resistant
backlit display is color
coded to indicate when
the water is cold, warm or hot.
A graphic Comfort Zone, which is
part of the display, and audible
high temperature alerts
take the guesswork out of
monitoring the water
temperature. With the additional
benefits of sidewall
drains through which
dirty water is continuously
expelled and a contoured bottom
that enables
the tub to be used in single-
and double-basin sinks and all
bath tubs, this infant tub
stands far above the rest.

It's a Play Yard
- it's a
Pool - it's a
Resting Space -
it's a
Changing Area:
it's the 4-in-1 Playard
by
Room to Grow™. This
safe area for indoor or outdoor
play can be used with or without
a removable 4" inflatable
cushion, and has two handles for
easy transport without
breakdown. The Playard has mesh
window ports for cross
ventilation and viewing. When
you remove the mattress and add
water, you create a splash pool
or tub. Simply turn play yard
upside down with or without the
removable cushion to create a
changing table. Voila.
 |
|
  The
Time Out Pad™ helps
parents make the most of the
time out technique. To help
children learn when their
behavior is not acceptable, many
parents use the 'time-out'
technique, sitting the child
quietly for a few minutes to
calm down. Time-outs are a great
way for the parents to stay calm
too, especially with the help of
the Time Out Pad. Simply set the
built-in timer to the desired
time-out duration (usually one
minute per year of the child's
age) and sit the child on the
pressure sensitive pad. If the
child gets up before the end of
the programmed time, an alarm
sounds to alert the parent or
caregiver, and the countdown
will pause until the child sits
back down. Once the full
time-out countdown has elapsed,
the finish tune is played to let
everyone know that the session
has ended. Easy!
Grobag® Baby Sleeping Bags
help keep your baby covered all
night long, even if he's is an
active sleeper. These “wearable
blankets” help to keep your baby
comfortable and warm throughout
the night and are a safe
alternative to loose blankets
and bedding, which means peace
of mind and more sleep for
you.They are available in a wide
variety of sizes and d esigns
to suit boys and girls, as well
as unisex versions.
The
Grobag® Egg™ Color Changing
Digital Room Thermometer
is a clever solution for
monitoring your baby's room
temperature, which is vital in
creating a safe sleeping
environment (temperature should
be maintained at 61-67°F to help
reduce the risk of sudden infant
death syndrome (SIDS)). The
grobag® egg™ glows yellow if the
room temperature is within
recommended guidelines. If the
room temperature is outside this
range, the grobag® egg™ acts as
a visual reminder for you to
take action to cool or heat the
room, or to adjust the baby’s
bedding or clothing.

 Tired
of picking up items your child
drops or throws from stroller,
car seat, highchair, or shopping
cart? Afraid of losing his most
prized possession? Do you have
to chase your energetic toddler
when he wants to walk instead of
ride in his stroller? The
Take Along Tether

designer elastic band, with an
adjustable loop on one end to
hold almost any item (pacifiers,
teethers, bottles, sippy cups,
toys, etc), along with a

and convenience. Attach the

(stroller, highchair, shopping
cart, cart cover, etc.) or it

  For
a child, the world around them
is a magical and curious place.
They learn by mirroring Mommy
and Daddy with the ultimate goal
being "to do it myself" and feel
like an active member of the
family. That's why
Little Partners
created the
Learning Tower:
a sturdy, non-tip structure that
welcomes the child to safely
participate with parents,
caregivers, and siblings by
raising them to countertop
height. Brand new to the market,
the
Art Easel
accessory set attaches easily to
The Learning Tower, and features
a
dry-erase board
on one side with a
chalkboard on
the other for twice the artistic
fun. From abstract squiggles to
family portraits, your child can
color their own world in the
safe environment of
The Learning Tower and within
the contained space of The Art
Easel. |

 We
all have the best intentions of
measuring our children's growth,
but cute as they may be,
traditional growth charts are
difficult to maintain.
Introducing
Measure-Up, the
handy and
portable height recorder
that allows you to keep a
permanent record of
your child's growth. Now,
instead of marking up walls,
mark your child's growth on the
writable Measure-Up tape. When you are done, simply wind up the
tape and store Measure-Up in its
keepsake box which includes a
place for photos, footprints and
vital statistics. |

 Through
clever storage and cool new
modern designs in children's
gear, you finally have a place
where your children and your
style can happily coexisit
...except for...that
stroller.... It's huge, it cost
you a fortune, and it's a
necessity. But where do you put
it? It folds, but the fact that
it's on wheels makes it
impossible to stay upright in a
closet and the garage gets
dusty. Under the heading of 'Why
didn't someone think of that
sooner?' comes the
StrollAway,
an over the door (no wall or
door damage from screws)
stroller storage system.
Constructed of sturdy steel, the
StrollAway will accommodate most
stroller models, and folds flush
to the door when not in use.
Hang it on the back of the
closet door and voila! Out of
sight until your next outing.

 Most
moms with two or more kids know
the drill. Take one child out of

on everything. Thank goodness
for the new
Parking Pals!
For use in parking lots, the
Parking Pal™
magnetic hand
is
designed to help busy parents
keep their child out of harm’s
way while tending to other
tasks. So simple, yet brilliant
and necessary. |
