The diaper bag I liked so much at the ABC show in Las Vegas has landed in our stores, and it’s getting a very warm reception.

ubi changes everything
Categories: ABC Show 2007, Baby, Modern Nursery, New Products, Travels & Trade Shows
This easily the most brilliant thing I saw during my first day of the show, and I’ll be really surprised if I see something that trumps it over the next three days. The ubi is billed as a modern changing table, but it’s more than that. It’s really a design innovation that will set parents… read more!

We’re still just about 10 days away from the ABC show, but the Boon website is already showing off a panoply of new products. There’s a whole new layette line, a range of feeding accessories and… jewelry? I’m in love with the beautiful sterling silver bracelet designs – modern, whimsical and alternately geometric or undulating… read more!

Half pipes with half pints?
Categories: Baby, New Products, Strollers
I was at the ICFF (International Contemporary Furniture Fair) yesterday in NYC. As always, it’s such a cool show. But there was a prototype on display that was just radical. The Roller Buggy, designed by Austrian Valentin Vodev, is part skateboard, part stroller. Just pull out the board from under the chassis and it becomes… read more!

Itzbeen a good idea
Categories: Baby, New Products, Newborn Essentials
The new Itzbeen baby timer has arrived. This clever little device was invented by Greg Sheldon, an engineer turned stay-at-home dad who found that he and his wife were constantly struggling to remember how much time had elapsed between feedings, diaper changes, naps, medication doses, etc. So he created a computer program to track all… read more!

It’s Raining It’s Pouring.
Categories: Baby, Masha in Israel, New Products, Strollers, Travels & Trade Shows
Here’s hoping everyone had a wonderful holiday season! For my family here in Jerusalem, Chanukah was celebrated in a city glowing with candles. Menorahs were kindled everywhere. Inside and outside, through windows and in courtyards, the nights were alight. And as the eighth-day of light came to a close, and as the last candle burned… read more!

To Market, To Market
Categories: Baby, Masha in Israel, New Products, Strollers, Travels & Trade Shows
You won’t find many strollers in the open markets on busy days. The throngs of people keep the majority away. The indignant looks tossed toward buggy lugging mothers (the nerve, taking up precious extra space) leave only the strong of heart or the petite of stroller. We jump in. The Micralite, soundly maneuvered by yours… read more!

Tight Spaces
Categories: Baby, Masha in Israel, New Products, Strollers, Travels & Trade Shows
When I’m walking and in a rush, I jay-walk. I cross on red, cut through private property, and take the stairs. Nothing personal, but I’ll run over your miniature poodle if he’s in my path. Now here’s the challenge. In Jerusalem, and particularly in my neighborhood, parking is a major issue. There’s simply no space…. read more!

At First Sight
Categories: Baby, General, Masha in Israel, New Products, Strollers, Travels & Trade Shows
Do you remember how it was at the beginning? You were struck by their looks, or perhaps their charm. You thought to yourself, Now here’s something interesting. And then, face to face, the charm and beauty feel quirky. And you’re left uncertain. Perhaps you fell too quickly? (It’s happened before.) Or perhaps you’re just nervous… read more!
