Their line of durable carseat covers are made with soft fabrics and classic retro prints. Instead of creating new materials, however, Little Bits uses the remnants of high-quality fabrics from designer fabrics to make limited editions of covers! So stylish! All covers come in infant and toddlers size seats, are easily removable...and washable!
Little Bits gives back to the community by supporting recycling efforts, organic farming, and children's charities. They're founded on the principle that every 'little bit' counts. Through October the company plans to donate 30% of proceeds from your purchases on littlebits.com to The American Red Cross, in order to support Hurrican Relief Efforts!
baby bistro recipes
Worrying is a part of motherhood. In fact, we think it's part of the definition. While the first year is overwhelming in worrying about what baby can eat and what you should be feeding him...the second year can be even worse.
Now that your child can express herself, she can become a little too expressive when it comes to food. You?ll worry how to make them eat something other than Nemo fruit snacks or, after two days, how to make them eat anything at all.
Well we've found the answer to your prayers. The Toddler Bistro Box is an informative recipe box filled with answers to all your nutrition questions. The box covers your child's years from 1-3, including easy recipes, shopping tips, and nutrient needs. The recipe card format is ultra-easy and allows you to simply access the information you need. And the best part is you can take the recipe card you need with you to the store.
Created by Nutritionist Christina Schmidt, The Bistro Box Series is exactly what mothers all across the country have been waiting for. You'll be so enthralled with the box that you want to read all the information the first night. Armed with this information, mealtime will no longer be a battle!

teepee for me
All kids love to have their own cozy space, and they love creating forts. Now, this used to mean draping a blanket over two chairs or setting up a small nylon tent in the house. All that has changed. Tee Pee for Me has an entire line of fantastic play tents that are sure to amuse your child for hours on end from the time they can walk all the way up to their young teen years. They're the perfect place for club meetings, tea parties, playing house, or just reading a book or doing homework in their own quiet space. Either way, this spot will become their sanctuary...and create memories to last a lifetime. Tents are beautifully handcrafted in lightweight, colorful cotton prints. They're 66? tall and 60? in diameter...plenty of space for your child to imagine and dream in.
Tee Pee for Me was founded by two moms who believed in creating an heirloom quality product that can last a child many years. They are proud to say their product is made in the USA. We love their slogan, ?Don?t just give a gift?give a memory?. You will definitely be giving the gift of many years of memories with a play tent from Tee Pee for Me.

For those enduring the harsh winter season, the Snuggle Bub Lambswool Stroller Insert is one item you won't want to be without.

Live in a warmer climate, where the sun shines year-round? The Single Stroller Sunshade Attachment is ideal for those who want complete sun protection, as well as visibility of baby. The shade attaches to any canopied stroller or carriage and is made from specially woven 50+UPF rated breathable fabric (which provides 98+% protection from the sun's rays, as well as full air circulation). Mesh windows/vents allow for 70% sun protection, cross ventilation, and maximum viewing. (Available for all sizes of strollers, joggers, and carseats) 
Protect-A-Bub offers tots even more protection with their new Rain Cover. Made from waterproof polyester, its style and light-weight fabric are unlike any other rain covers on the market today (made from heavy plastic). Side vents and vinyl window allow maximum air flow and visibility. (Available in Twin, Tandem, and Jogger Strollers)
