• Very Fancy in Fancy Nancy

  My daughter has hit the dress up stage. Head on. Being that she loves any garment that is frilly, sparkly, sequiny and also that she loves the Fancy Nancy series of books, my heart stopped when I saw this Fancy Nancy Dress Up Posh Party Dress at...   Read More...

• Yo Gabba Gabba - Forget the $100 Hoody, Show Your Love for $19.99

  $100 is way too much to spend on a hoody for my baby - which was the price of the Yo Gabba Gabba sweatshirts offered at Kidrobot. I wanted to show our family's love for our favorite show in a less expensive “honey, I spent your college fund on clothing” sort of way.  Last weekend... Read More...

• Cynthia Rowley Does the Baby Pool

  Why has it taken me this long to discover Cynthia Rowley's newest stuff at Target? I'm specifically loving this baby pool. It's only $9.99 and employs her Target line's signature colors in a madras print. Sadly, you can't order it online, but I'm guessing most of us have a Target within walking/driving distance. And while you're there shopping for summer, you should pick up the beach ball (99 cents) and the inflatable tube ($2.99).

• Top Five Pirate-Themed Products

  There’s something intrinsically silly about a pirate. Of all the themed products for boys (cars, airplanes, sail boats, sports), pirates are, in my opinion, the coolest. Maybe it’s because pirates are rebels. Or maybe pirates are a little less common than cars and airplanes. (And that’s why pirate products are popping up everywhere. Arg!) So, in honor of Summer approaching, let’s take a look at my five favorite pirate-themed products. (That’s “booty” in pirate talk.)   Read More...

• Girls Rule in the Kitchen

  One of the advantages of being at home with your new baby is that you can spend an inordinate amount of time researching things like toasters and no boss will tell you to quite messing around. Which is how I came across this toaster, which is only negligibly about toasting. Read More...

• DwellStudio for the Masses

  I’m the first to admit that I love a trek to Target. There ain’t no shame in my game. Being a red-blooded consumer, it’s pert near impossible for me to leave there without a bright red cart piled with snacks, socks and knick-nacks that I had absolutely no intention in buying.

• Razor Bumper Buggie Puts an Amusement Park in Your Cul-de-Sac

  Between its electric wagon and these motorized bumper cars, Razor is ensuring that our kids will never know the simple pleasure of wheeling around in a Radio Flyer. Like Razor's wagon, the Bumper Buggie ($129.99 at Target.com) packs dual 65-watt motors and gives you up to 40 minutes of vroom-vroom time on a single eight-hour charge. (More photos after the jump.)

  Whether it's keeping you connected with loved ones or giving you a reason to broadcast your baby's development via YouTube, the Boynq Alibi is a combination 1.3 MP webcam/PC speaker/noise-cancelling directional microphone that looks as great as it performs.

• Point, Shoot, Play: Polaroid Pixie for Junior Photographers

  New in Target this week, Polaroid Pixie is a line of relatively high-end digital equipment housed in chunky, kid-alluring shells that, in case your gender alarm didn't register at the photos above, are clearly divided into "his" and "hers" colors.

• Double Take: Boon's Innovative New Feeding Gadgets

  In March, Greg Allen wrote at length about parent-run start-up Boon, noting the innovative, fashion-meets-function brand's push into major retail (namely Target). Next month, Boon will release a new batch of feeding gear that combines its trademark blend of efficiency, ergonomics and parental empathy with designs that, like the award-winning Frog Pod, may have you doing double-takes. Is that a toy iron or a no-spill toddler cup? A bedpan or a catch bowl? Melon scoopers or toddler-friendly utensils? A sex toy or a baby-food-dispensing spoon? In all seriousness, the line looks great; if only they were taking pre-orders...
