If farm-style sounds like an oxymoron, you haven’t seen the fantastic work of little by jenny! Bold yet simple Hand printed imagery of horses, chickens, ‘working the plains’ and ‘royalty with windmill’ adorns super-soft American Apparel t-shirts and onesies. Let your one of a kind wear a one of a kind, and remind us that life on the farm is beautifully stylish!


farm themed accessories
Swanky baby prides itself on offering unique gifts for baby that aren’t mass produced…but we definitely think that their Cow print play blanket will have mass appeal! Swanky Baby fabrics are fabulous, especially the cow print, which turns a blanket into a visual treat for baby’s developing eyes. Available in two sizes- small (3.5’ x 3.5’) and large (4.5’ x 4.5’)- we think that you’ll find that both sizes of Swanky Baby’s play blankets are big on practicality and style. The Cow Print play blanket is trimmed in satin with a padded fabric back, making it perfect for use inside or out. Get this farm fabulous gear at swankybaby.com!

Oeuf’s pet-themed sets (hat, mittens, scarf) are beautifully hand-knit with super-soft 100% baby alpaca for extra warmth and comfort. Choose from six bright and adorable designs (dog, chicken, horse, rooster, lady bug, rabbit), sized birth-18 months. Stop horsing around, don’t chicken out, get Oeuf's Farm Friends before the fall weather hits!

tot trends weeklyDon’t ‘cowtow’ to the ordinary; get extraordinary with Bella Tunno’s Cow Print Bib and Burpie. Bella Tunno specializes in making baby basics super stylish, and their cow print Bib and Burpie are no exception. Baby will love the high contrast cow print, and soft terry velour backing. Mommy will love that Bella Tunno doesn’t sacrifice function for style: an extended Velcro closure will allow the Bella Bib to grow with baby, and when baby no longer needs a burpie, Bella Burpie’s generous size makes for a great changing pad! Bella Tunno makes Farm Functional!

barnyard fun
tot trends weekly Let your kids experience life on the farm with Melissa & Doug’s adorable Fold & Go Barn. The fabulous red barn includes seven farm animals, sliding barn doors, large stalls, stable doors, a hayloft and a carry handle- a lot of farm, perfect for a big imagination. A beautiful take on an old classic, we have a feeling that this toy will do lots of folding and going!

Farm life isn’t for everyone, but we have a feeling that baby will love it when he sees (and hears!) FAO Schwarz’s Soft Barnyard Play Set! Though scaled down for smaller hands, this farm has plenty of room for imagination. Your little tike will love how the plush animals rattle and squeak, and peak their noses out of the soft barn windows. We know you’ll love the barn’s wipeable surfaces and endless entertainment!

Be the first in your neighborhood to give your little one her (or his!) very own pony, by preordering Hasbro’s Furreal Friends Butterscotch Pony. Standing just over three feet, Butterscotch responds to your voice, moves her head and ears, blinks her eyes, whinnies and neighs. We know that your little pony enthusiast will think Furreal Friends Butterscotch is for real!



pig in a blanket
tot trends weekly We finally know why ‘this little piggy stayed home’; he was warm and cozy in an adorable Sonya Bebeblankee piginablankie.
