Toddler Snack Solution

OnTray: The Container to Go

The very first time I used this product, while shopping at Sam's Club, I was stopped by a dad who was simultaneously handing his son a snack and talking to me. He wanted to know where I got the snack tray; I love sharing great finds like this one! OnTray by 42Kids snaps onto a shopping cart and lets toddler snack on his/her own. I keep it in my car with the shopping cart cover and use it every time we're on the go. OnTray is one terrific mom-invented product!

Cool Tip: Keep snacks stocked inside; the cover won't let them go stale. Buy OnTray at Mom4Life for free shipping.

Stylish Baby & Toddler Bibs

Bazzle Baby Bibs

Babies and toddlers spend a lot of their time in bibs. Bella started teething at 4 months old and wore a bib almost constantly for months. So many bibs on the market look the same and are anything but stylish; this is where Bazzle Baby bibs come in. The baby bibs are uniquly bandanna designed and the patterns adorably stylish. The big bibs for toddler are just as cute...easily washable with a soft, super-absorbent backing; the big bibs are perfect for going out on the town!

Easy to Change Crib Sheets

Quick Zip Crib Sheets by Clouds and Stars

It's time to change the crib sheet...do you untie every single bumper pad tie in order to take the mattress out or struggle to pull the mattress over the bumper pad? I used to hate this chore and would stare down at the sheet and wonder, "Does it really need to be changed?" The Quick Zip Crib sheet eliminates this problem since the top portion of the sheet zips right off so the mattress never moves. Ingenious! Is it worth replacing all of your cexisiting crib sheets? YES!!!
Cool Tip: Buy the starter kit and some extra top sheets sold seperatly. Buy at

Stuffed Animal Storage

Boon Oval Animal Bag

From day one at the hospital one thing was clear...Bella would soon have an abundance of stuffed animals. I began to realize why those animal nets you hang in the corner of the room existed, though I am staunchly opposed to them both practically and aesthetically, so this product is a real find! The Oval Animal Bag by Boon not only looks cute but is practical since it actually has a use (soft seat for toddler) and stores every last stuffed animal with a zippered mesh window to retrieve them. You gotta love it.

Cool Pick: It comes in pink...perfect for little girls! Buy here.

Toddler Bottle Throwing? Problem Solved.

Bottle Tamer by Lil Bah Bee

This ingenious product has rescued my abused tile floor, prevented countless cleanups, and saved Bella's sippy cup from rolling down the restaurant isle. It's one of those, "Why didn't I think of that?" baby/toddler products you can't live without. The adjustable Bottle Tamer straps to a high chair, booster seat, stroller, etc. and saves said bottle or sippy when it is inevitably thrown to the ground. You'll wonder how you managed to exist without it!

Cool Pick: Bottle Tamer Three-Pack so you don't have to transfer...
