Slip your child’s bare bottom onto this plush contouring foam mat, and he will certainly bless you. With elegance and comfort all in one tidy package, the Ah Goo Baby Plush Pad lays out complete luxury and style.

Rolling pizzazz and practicality into this fashionable accessory, the Ah Goo Baby Plush Pad is one item that you and your little one should never be without. The Plush Pad measures a whopping two feet by two feet when opened wide, and will neatly roll into a 3 inch cylinder. After little Johnny has done his duty and you’ve done yours, you are able to tuck the pad almost anywhere.

When you and baby are on the go, in more ways than one, you’ll want to keep a few of these around. Put some upstairs, downstairs, in the car, and at grandma’s place. With a range of modern colors and patterns to choose from you’ll find one just right for your lifestyle and fashion statement. You may even find yourself taking it out just to look at!

Cyndi Lauper was wrong. Girls don’t just wanna have fun. They wanna have style too. And Euro-chic children’s clothing line, Harlo Kids, makes it easy. Fashion guru, Lis Bothwell, introduces bite size wardrobe staples for every season. With style sense bred from the US to Switzerland, the Harlo Kids line emerges as a powerful mixture of worldly sophistication and childlike simplicity.

The Harlo pieces are classic yet cute and understated enough to mix and match all year long. You’ll find something for the beach, something for the park, something for every little girl you know. If the clothes themselves don’t have you absolutely gushing, the photo album style marketing will.

Have a look at the hippie skirt, check out the kimono jacket. Just don’t spend too long wishing they came in your size!

Come Out and Play

May 7th, 2008 by Poise Daily Staff Member

Playgroups USA has done for young families what Match.com has done for lonely hearts. Their virtual matchmaking service brings local families together for play dates by interest in activity, age, or available days and times. Search within miles of your zip code and break out the juice boxes – its time to have some fun. Playgroups USA has recently upgraded important website features to ensure your group dates are little work and all play.

Co-founders Jeff and Jodi Van Lom recently leant their ears to Playgroups USA members. Building on user suggestions, they’ve enhanced each individual playgroup’s communicative capabilities. A private calendar feature has been added to ensure that every caregiver has interactive access to the scheduling of group activities. To coincide with the calendar, Playgroups USA has granted each group a virtual community bulletin area where comments, ideas, and activity details may be shared online. Each new message will trigger a notification email to all group members. They’ve even uploaded a local weather link to forecast the need for alternate plans should inclement weather jeopardize an upcoming pool or park outing.

Specific game-plan tools are not the only new features Playgroups USA has kicked-off. A slideshow upload is now available to post pics of recent fun, and the site is putting some old fashioned rewards into play. To maximize involvement, Playgroups USA gives virtual “gold stars” to parents/caregivers that RSVP to events. Regular participation in your playgroup will offer the greatest social advantages for you and your child.

Whether you are new to a neighborhood, new to a hobby, or new to play dates in general, don’t bother to play the waiting game. Play with Playgroups USA.

Take an Italian Stroll with Chicco

May 7th, 2008 by Poise Daily Staff Member

It’s a sunny day. The weather’s warm and the breeze is soft on your skin. The sun is just perfect to warm up your bundle of joy, snuggled up in a stroller and nothing is more calming for you and your baby than the stroll you two are having in the park. Suddenly, the sky becomes overcast and before you know it, it’s raining! What a wreck! You hasten for cover because it definitely will not be good for baby to get wet.

Chicco now offers the latest line of umbrella strollers, called Chicco Tuscany. Picture the perfect stroller with rain canopy, adjustable foot rest, five position recline, and durable and stain resistant material. Mothers would definitely appreciate the easy-to-clean material and its durability. Although, the storage space is limited and the rain canopy does not exactly protect your baby from unpredictable weather, the price more than makes up for the shortcoming ($79.99 compared to Maclaren). When reviewed, the Chicco Tuscany comes out with an overall rating of A.

The harness system converts from a 5 point to a 3 point as when the baby grows a bit older. Parents boast about its maneuverability, so much so that they reported, big sister or brother is easily able to push the Tuscany and baby around safely. Its lightweight feature (15lbs) is probably the best you’ll get in buying the stroller compared to other infant carrier systems, and “once you get the hang of it, it folds easily”. For an umbrella stroller to be stored underseat is another impressive feature of the Chicco Tuscany, and lastly, the handles are high enough for tall people. So, no back pain! Otherwise, for the mother who’s a fan of Starbux hot cafe lattes, there’s no cupholder handy.

In this day and age of style and comfort meets parenting needs, the Chicco Tuscany is a sure bet for your baby collection, and a plus for moms who are on a budget. The Chicco Tuscany is available for $79.99 and recommended only for children aged 12 to 36 months.
