This handmade Rikrak Blue and Red Circles Bib is very different and would make a really nice baby shower gift. It’s reversible and made of quilt with a solid colored back and a modern design on the front.

You can adjust a Rikrak bib to fit both a 3-month-old and a toddler. A plus is that they are also eco-friendly.

Launch a Cork Boat -- Indoors

Aaron Burgess — Mon, 09 Feb 2009 16:00:00 GMT

Ah, the simple joy of launching a homemade cork boat down a stream of fresh rainwater -- if only it weren't 40 below and raining ice this month.

Luckily for those of us who are snowed in, the Boat Corkel by Ben Blanc takes the same concept of cork-boat launching and brings it into the home. Made of eco-friendly wood-chip cork, and finished with simple black outlining, Boat Corkel is one of five simple but great-looking cork toys in Blanc's value-minded line.

Coolest Musical Toy ... Ever?

Erin Behan — Tue, 02 Dec 2008 14:35:00 GMT

There are fancy xylophones, there are cool toy pianos and then there is the Gloggomobil. Fawn & Forest gets it right when they say "This is probably the most original and educational toy that has ever been created." The Gloggomobil, designed by Herbert Bahli for Naef Toys, works on the principle of the barrel organ. When the studs on the barrel are struck, songs play. The musical instrument can also be played as a xylophone. As the musical creator, you move the pegs to create the music. At this point, you probably know that this is no $9.99 blue-light special. Nope, it takes Swiss craftsmen several days to create one of these babies, and it's priced accordingly. It's $899 at Fawn & Forest. Do note the 12-13 week lead time they'll need to ship one out.

Erin Behan — Tue, 26 Aug 2008 16:40:00 GMT

You still have to spend a load of cash to get this deal, but if you're already planning on dropping some dough, why not do it where you get something free? Fawn & Forest is offering a free Binth baby book (normally $110) to anyone spending more than $1,000 on the site. Spending $1K isn't really that hard, of course, when you're buying something like a $1,195 crib. Enter "binth" in the discounts field at checkout.
