Put Away the Jars of Baby Food - Beaba Babycook Has Arrived

Scandinavian Child introduced the Beaba Babycook at the ABC Show in September and quickly picked up a coveted JPMA Innovation Award for the one-of-a-kind baby food maker. Truly unlike anything else on the market, in less than 15 minutes the Babycook steam cooks vegetables, fruits and meats and then purees or blends foods to the desired consistency —all while preserving their vitamins and flavors.  To ensure children’s safety, the Babycook is made from Polysulfone, a Bisphenol-A free thermoplastic polymer.

Easy to use and looks good on the kitchen counter, it inspires culinary creativity in even the most reluctant chefs. Check out Ciaran’s post on Mommies With Style to find out how!

The Babycook’s suggested retail price is $149.95 and is available nationwide at giggle.com and at all giggle locations, with broader distribution starting later this year.

GAP Taps Classic Kids Photography

GAP's Casting Call 2008 arrived in New York City on October 9th and kicked off a 10-day event in the Company's concept store at 5th & 54th. Taking the event to a new level this year, GAP tapped the nation's premier national children's photographers, Classic Kids Photography, to capture all the potential models on film.(www.classickidsphotography.com). 

For more than 15 years, founder Julie Floyd and her elite consortium of children's photographers have remained committed to creating unique, fun and lasting portraits that capture children as they truly are, the way parents see them every day. For parents getting ready to capture the perfect shot for holiday cards, Julie Floyd offers one piece of advice: let kids be kids. "When a child is doing what comes naturally, the photographer, whether it's parent or professional, will capture that personality on film." she explains. The bottomline: Never tell a kid to sit still or smile!
