This year the Pop Montreal festival is introducing it's first ever Kids Pop, a fun interactive weekend of shows, demos and activities for kids and teens. The schedule is packed with workshops from making recycled toys at to learning how to rock out on a Ukulele. It's all free, check out the full schedule of events here.
Here’s a conundrum: How do you swaddle a newborn in the summertime without having him overheat? I’m sure many parents have faced this riddle before. On the one hand you want to comfort and soothe your infant on the other concerns about SIDS and the importance of not letting you little one overheat. Well look no further than Solana, a company founded by a couple of Arizona moms. Their Swaddle Wrap is made from 100% super soft cotton and is extremely light of breathable. The wrap itself is very generous in size and has a texture almost like gauze so while baby is swaddled air is still able to circulate and baby remains sweat free. I’ve found Solana’s Swaddle Wrap also works well over a stroller to keep bugs away and as a lightweight blanket for a toddler so you might want to invest in more than one.
Be sure to check out Solana's beautiful Organic line with wraps available in both “Sheer” and “Stretch” fabrics – “Baby Tree" is my personal fave.
I came across kukunest while searching for some non-Dora, non-Wall Mart bedding for my 2 year old. This bedding is absolutely gorgeous! Not only that, the 100% cotton percale sheets (200TC) are Öko-Tex certified which basically means they have been tested for hamful substances. The bedding comes in 4 themes, I chose to show the Lantern Festival inspired by my own daughter but there are also prints suitable for boys rooms.
