Fancy Foam

Looking for a cute chair and table set for your kids? These Eva foam pieces are mega sturdy, as well as practical and look great too. Good enough to be acquired for the Carnegie Museum of Art, why not let your kids sit in style! Available at Modern Nursery.

Razzle Dazzle

Every mum knows the value of a light-weight stroller when it comes to shopping and travel. Whilst the big chunky sports models are great for walks on the beach, ease of steering and roomy storage baskets… strollers will always win out when jumping on public transport and wheeling in and around cafes and boutiques! Silver Cross are an institution when it comes to strollers and prams, well known for their classic heritage designs. But new to their product line is the modern looking Dazzle which can also be used from birth when combined with the accompanying carry cot. Apparently the celebs love it! (Think Marcia Cross, Bec Hewitt, and Cate Blanchett). Available at Bebe Online.

Harajuku girls

Gwen Stefani’s label Harajuku Lovers has a range of clothes for baby, and they are so cute featuring japanese style prints and characters. A top or onesie has long been on my radar for my daughter, but so far I haven’t made the purchase. They don’t seem as easy come by in Australia, so the best selection comes from international online stores.

Here’s a onesie and pants set I found at Neiman Marcus:

Boys n the Hood

I know I do favour posting about things for girls (seeing as I have one), but that doesn’t stop me admiring all the funky things out there for boys. My favourite brand for boys so far would have to be Munster Kids. And their new spring season is up on their website. Your little lad would fit right in at all the summer festivals in this type of trendy gear! Might be too cool for Wiggles concerts…

Cute and creative

My friend Miriam has a very crafty and creative ability that always impresses “sewing-impaired” me. She has been working on some great bibs and baby shoes in cute and funky fabrics. If you want to see more check out her blog at JasmineRose. I know I will be lining up for a new bib for my little girl!

Oh so cool crockery

These plates are so cool they would make great decorator items… but made with melamine they are perfect for kids to eat with, and then throw in the dishwasher. I found these ones at Sparkability in both monster and superhero styles.
