Great products for babies, toddlers, older kids and even the modern parent!
Great products for the entire family this holiday season!
PREGNANCY
*C-U-Soon Designer Delivery Gowns - Finally, an alternative to the boring, old hospital gowns! These gowns make GREAT Christmas gifts for the mom-to-be. After the long months of pregnancy, each mom deserves to feel stylish in the hospital when her guests come to visit.
INFANCY
*Snoogie Seat by Daddy's Design - We love this product for babies because it is comfy, safe and practical. Not to mention, it is very cute! The Snoogie Seat was designed out of frustration from two Dad's looking to make their lives a little easier. Great for travel, play time and bottle time!
*Formula Xpress - We know that, as a new mom, any practical gift received that will help your day-to-day life is appreciated. This invention is PERFECT for formula feeding moms and dads. In fact, we wish this product was available when ours were infants. Formula Xpress allows you to prepare your baby's bottle in just seconds with only ONE HAND!
TODDLER
*1-2-3 Texas by DuoPress Books - What to get for the kid who has everything? Books are always a great solution because not only do they entertain but they also educate. We found this book, in particular, to be one of our kiddo's favorites that we brought home. It teaches them to count all while learning about Texas culture. Every true Texas toddler needs this book this Christmas!
*HandySitt System by Minui - You may have noticed, we are all about practicality this Christmas! This product can be used in 5 different ways and not only will it make life easier with toddlers, but can be used by adults, too! The 5 functions are: Portable seat (great for restaurant trips); High Chair (great at home or grandparent's home); Adult-sized chair (fits every dining chair); Miniature Chair (great for gardening or arts & crafts); Step Stool (great for those hard-to-reach places)
*Wupzey! - Keeping the floor clean at Thanksgiving and/or Christmas dinner is a must and the Wupzey! allows you to do just that. Designed to fit most high chairs, Wupzey catches all of those sticky, crumbly and gooey pieces of food. This is a great gift for moms to use on their toddler's high chair!
*Learning Tower by Little Partners, Inc. - This Christmas, treat your toddler to the PERFECT tool to enjoy hands-on fun and learning, the safe way! The Learning Tower allows you, as the parent, to interact and explore activities that normally would be hard to execute safely and easily. For example, your child can now become your assistant in the kitchen. As you cook, you can place them in the Learning Tower right next to you and let them mix and explore, all while teaching them and bonding with them. Not to mention, there are several other accessories you can get with the Learning Tower that allow your tower to turn into an ART EASEL and even a PUPPET THEATER!
*Take-Along-Tether - If you have a toddler, this product is a MUST! Although it will help you in the long run, your child will also appreciate it. The Take-Along-Tether allows your child to be constantly connected to their favorite toy, sippy cup, etc. when you are on-the-go. Invented by a local DFW mom, this product can even be used as a way to ensure your active toddler will not leave your side. Very affordable and very much needed this Christmas!
CHILDREN
*Money Savvy Piggy Bank by Money Savvy Generation - Great piggy bank to have in your child's room until they graduate college and even after. This piggy bank helps sort and organize how you want to save your money and also teaches kids that it is smart to place your money in several different life lines, as well as give back to the community!
* Felt Tales by Babalu Inc. - Our 3-year-old and 5-year-old LOVE this product. It gives "playing dress up" that more traditional feel and caters to both boys and girls. Boys would love the "Heroes to the Rescue" version and girls would love the "Pups in the Park" version. Felt Tales is also perfect for car trips and restaurants.
* Cash Bash Electronic Money Game by Learning Resources - We recommend this game as a great Christmas gift for kids ages 5+ who are interested in being entertained, as well as educated on money sense. From counting bills and change to subtraction and addition, this game does it all. Great for the entire family to play and learn, as well.
* Alphabotz - Wow! We love these new tools for teaching your kids the alphabet. The Alphabotz Superphonic Decoder Cards not only cover the basics in the alphabet but also covers the hard-to-learn parts like "sh" and "th". With their bold colors and catchy characters, kids will find it easy and fun to remember their letters and sounds!
* ItzaBitza by Sabi - Wonderful and unique computer game that children 4+ will love this Christmas! With ItzaBitza, kids can sketch their own creations and watch them come to life! Not only is this encouraging kids to bring out their inner artist but it will also keep them focused while you cook dinner. The game comes with 5 different themes: "Let's Go Camping", "Play in Space", "A Farm Life", "A VERY Scary Haunted House", and "Home Sweet Home".
* Marshmallow Blaster by Marshmallow Fun Company - This product needs no introduction as it is fun, yummy and safe for the whole family! Have fun with your marshmallows and eat them, too. You can even shoot marshmallows up to 40 feet high!
* The Magic School Bus Going Green by Young Scientist Club - This is one of our favorite products this year. Go on an adventure with the classic, Magic School Bus series as you and your child experiment with ways to help Save our Earth! With this science kit you can: build a compost tube, shrink plastic, magically make packing peanuts disappear, decompose food with fungus and much more!
MOM
*Santo Clutch by Hedvig Bourbon - This Christmas, be on-the-go and in style with the wonderful Santo Clutch. We get tired of hauling our huge diaper bag in and out of stores and restaurants. This product is perfect for a quick trip. Pockets inside provide room for wipes and diapers and we like to throw in our cell phones and lip balm, too!
*Pink Tooth by ChicBuds - With hand held laws recently changing in Texas, any mom would love this product. ChicBuds is known for their "Fashion-Forward Electronics" and they did not shy away with this new product. Their new "PinkTooth" makes talking on the phone in the car safe and sassy. We love ours because it is not too bulky and it has tons of "bling bling" thanks to the Swarovski Crystals.
*Holly Marie Jewelry - Not your typical jewelry, Holly Marie Jewelry is the most unique and sentimental piece of jewelry we own, and as a mom, it's the best gift ANYONE can give! We love our necklace! We can not go anywhere without someone asking about it. Moms would love this necklace because they can have a memory of their kiddos wherever they go. From engraved necklaces with birthstones to photo rings, Holly Marie continues to wow us! A MUST Christmas gift. So dads....listen up and visit Holly's website linked above in the title!
DAD
*Diaper Vest by Dad Gear - Perfect for those dads that want to help out but just refuse to carry the bulky, girly diaper bag. The Diaper Vest by Dad Gear is genius and we tested it out on our Dad of 3. He liked the style of the vest and the fact that it was not noticeable what he was "stashing" in his pockets. With that being said, the Diaper Vest has places for all the necessities: diapers, wipes, bottles, changing pad, cell phone and even the MP3 player! Great unique gift for dads on-the-go.
*iStoryTime App for iPhone - Every time we see dad's checking sports stats on their iPhone we wonder, does he really know what else he could be doing with that crazy phone?! I bet most dads do not know about this app but we highly recommend it, especially for family trips in the car. Your kids can flip through a book while the author reads along and highlights the words as they go. This not only begins the reading process with younger kids, but it entertains them while driving to Mimi's house or waiting in the doctor's office.
