Deal of the Day: Save on a Modern Approach to Children’s Blocks
Category:
Children Toys Deal of the Day
What: Save 25% on Zid Zid’s “In the City” Block Set
Why: If I ask you to think of blocks, do you picture wooden, square pieces with letters and numbers painted on the sides? Here’s a new way to think about them, and play with them too. Zid Zid’s “In the City” Block Set features five pieces found in the city (get it…city block?) in various shapes, sizes and colors for baby to sort, stack and enjoy. Besides being on sale for 25% off, they’re soft, so you can relax. No bumps or bruises from a flying or hidden block.
Price: $56.25

For the Home: Start Your Spring Cleaning with Fruits and Passion
Category:
For the Home
What: Fruits and Passion Home Fragrance in Tulipe and Lavandula
Why: Spring is in the air, and now it can be in your house, too! Start your spring cleaning binge with a bottle of Fruits and Passion in Tulipe. It’s not your typical home fragrance in that it’s completely un-fussy and doesn’t try to blend too many aromas to create any sort of mood. Rather, it’s a simple and light scent that truly brightens up a room but isn’t obvious. It also comes in a pretty, sleek bottle. So pretty you might even mistake it for perfume. Which would probably be OK, too.
Price: $16

Baby Find: Beep Beep for Babieplates
Category:
Children Strollers
What:
Babieplates
Why: Sure, it looks cool, but also there’s a purpose. Attach a
Babieplate to your stroller and find it in a jiffy when its parked amongst a bunch of buggies.
Babieplates are personalized “license” plates that can adorn your wheels or wall. They’re made in Sweden of aluminum, and reflect just like a real car tag. You can choose a style with any country’s flag, your baby’s photos, or name with date of birth. They’ll also make a custom message, such as “Go Bucks.”
If you’re worried about the safety issue of having your child’s name on the stroller, Babieplates suggests moving the plate to you child’s bedroom door as soon as he’s able to walk away from his stroller. So actually, you’ve got a lifelong gift in a Babieplate. I imagine my son will someday hang his in his dorm room.
Price: $40 - $50
Find it:
Babieplates.com

Mom Find: Nursing? Meet Your New Brest Friend
Category:
Mom Breastfeeding
What: My Brest Friend Nursing Pillows
Why: You can’t go to a baby shower without mom-to-be getting a nursing pillow, and it’s a practical gift that she’ll truly use. But which brand to buy? Try the one recommended most by lactation consultants,
My Brest Friend.
I like how it’s firm and flat on top so baby stays put, instead of rolling towards you when using nursing pillows with a rounded top. It also has a unique wrap-around feature, which provides much-needed back support so you can enjoy a feeding session without any back or shoulder strain. No need to hunch over, and there’s even a convenient pocket attached for you to place a bottle of water, burp cloth, your cell phone or the remote.
Choose from a wide variety of soothing prints in cotton or splurge on the super-plush
Deluxe version.

And if you’re a traveling mama, they have an
Inflatable Travel Pillow
that’s actually just as good—and easy to inflate.
Price: $14.45 - $39.60
Find it: babycenterstore.com
Deal Alert: Free standard shipping on orders over $49 with coupon code
FREESHIP49 at checkout.

Be Sun Safe with Coppertone Continuous Spray for Moms & Kids
Category:
Children Skin Care Mom Bath and Body

What: Coppertone Continuous Spray
Why: Just in time for spring and summer, Coppertone introduces a new set of products which are a step up from last year’s spray sunscreens. For moms, the
Oil Free Continuous Spray
is a great option if you don’t want to worry about reapplying. It’s long-wearing in water and out but unlike some of those all-sport sprays, it won’t clog pores or create a dirt-attracting glue.
For kids, the
SPF 50 for Kids
is a great bet. Both have the handy twist-to-close top and pack lighter than lotions. Great for on-the-go and in your purse, too, for those impromptu moments in the sun.
Price: $10.99
