Categories: Baby, Baby Carriers
This post started out as a review of the new M1 baby carrier from Lascal, the company that brought us the Buggy Board and Kiddy Board, in partnership with Regal Lager, the venerable US distributor of, among others, Lascal and Phil and Teds, and who also distrubuted Baby Björn for 14 years until that relationship… read more!

Baby Bjorn lightens up
Categories: ABC Show 2007, Baby, Baby Carriers, Newborn Essentials, Travels & Trade Shows
Baby Bjorn introduced two new products at the ABC show, a new carrier and a travel crib. The carrier is called Synergy, aptly named since it’s basically a cross between the popular Active carrier and the lightweight Air carrier. This was an excellent decision. The Active carrier has been a parent favorite because of its… read more!

Peek a who?
Categories: Baby, Baby Carriers, Cold Weather
Babywearing offers many, many benefits for both the baby and the caregiver, but climate control isn’t one of them. When it’s very warm, wearing a baby can be a hot, sweaty affair for everyone involved. When it’s cold, it’s a constant struggle to fit the carrier over a winter coat and keep small extremities warm…. read more!

Although we have not yet decided to carry the Red Castle strollers that will be available in the US, we were curious to check out their booth. Inside, we found some gorgeous stroller and car seat covers that will be very nice in the winter. We also met the Red Castle baby carrier, which is… read more!

The Summertime Baby (Bjorn) Blues
Categories: Baby, Baby Carriers, Warm Weather
It’s summer, which is mostly good news. But if you’re toting around a newborn in a Baby Bjorn, chances are you’re driving yourself nuts about the sun. Infants younger than 6 months are not able to wear sunscreen, so keeping little babies from catching too many rays can be maddeningly difficult. Short of staying in… read more!

How do you spell relief? HOTSLINGS!
Categories: Baby, Baby Carriers
We just got back from nearly 10 days in the Southwest, and ironically, I forgot to bring a sling. Like clockwork, my two-year-old refused to walk or sit in a stroller for the first three days we were away. In desperation, I contacted my friends at Hotslings and bought (by overnight delivery) a stunning, reversible… read more!

Kangaroo Korner is back!
Categories: Baby, Baby Carriers, Cold Weather
Last month, we reported that Kangaroo Korner, makers of our best-selling adjustable fleece pouches, was putting their wholesale division on hold. Now, I’m delighted to update that status. We have them back in stock, in a wide variety of sizes and colors. Fortunately, it was a quick hiatus. These pouches are incredibly comfortable to wear,… read more!

Hot Slings for Cold Days
Categories: Baby, Baby Carriers, Cold Weather
For about a year now, we’ve been fortunate to be a reseller for the fabulous Kangaroo Korner fleece pouches. I am an avid fan of these, both for their comfort and their ease of use, so I was really sad when I found out that their availability would be extremely limited this winter. My understanding… read more!

Freezing your Bjorn off?
Categories: Baby, Baby Carriers, Cold Weather
As temperatures continue to drop here in New England, we’re coming to grips with the notion that winter is upon us. One consequence of the cooler weather is bulky outerwear, and cramming a bundled-up baby into a Baby Bjorn is not fun for anyone involved. But necessity is the mother of invention, which explains why… read more!
