It’s the Year of the Dragon Baby

It’s the Chinese year of the dragon. We’ve gotten many requests to subtly incorporate references to the sign in nurseries. Chinese culture says “the year of the dragon is supposed to be particularly fortunate for babies—those born, as dragons are the strongest, smartest and the luckiest.” Who can blame their parents for wanting to pay homage to the dragon in some small way? Here are some of our favorite finds to infuse the “lucky" little ones' rooms with a dragon or two. 1. Helen Doodle's How to Draw a Dragon - when we first saw this print, it made us smile as broadly as our new friend. Choose to have it displayed on stretched canvas or floating between two panels of glass—this image will make your lucky one a happy one. 2.ApplewoodKnoll's Personalized Dragon Art Print is printed on 100% post-consumer recycled paper, and it brings both the dragon and personalization to the room. 3. Goki's Wooden Dragon Mobile brings eight bright, flying dragons to entertain your baby. 4. Studio Design Lab's appliqued and embroidered Chinese Dragon Pillows not only bring luck and happiness into the nursery, they add a pop of color, too. 5. Furbish's Colorful Dragon Pillow dispels any concerns that incorporating the dragon may make the room feel too masculine. We love the romantic feel of these pillows by Willa Skye Home, which add vibrant hues to the room and a feminine touch to the dragon. 6. Lastly, if you want a more subtle presence, these Dinky …

Today’s Sale: RumbaTime Kids Watches

My six-year-old daughter Gigi loves her new RumbaTime Van Dam watch! These unisex, trendy, colorful watches have been spotted on celebrities everywhere, and now they have sizes for kids too. The silicone bands are super lightweight and smooth, so they won't bother your little one's wrist even while roughhousing at the park. Gigi especially loves her RumbaTime watch because it's easy for her to pull it on and off, and the big numbers on the digital face let her be her own timekeeper. See her tell you all about it. With so many fun bright colors to choose from, it's the perfect starter watch for your little one. They are so affordable at $11 a pop, I'm going to pick up a few extras as gifts. This sale ends tomorrow, so be sure to check it out today on OpenSky!

A Little Party Etiquette, Please!

On the whole, my children have great manners. And when I say that, I mean they say please and thank you and are polite to people who are not their mother (and I suppose that is where it really matters). But beyond the social niceties everyone should really practice, there is also the matter of etiquette. I would like to pass on some hard and fast rules of expected social behaviors to my kids, but those rules seem so much more subjective than they used to be. It makes me wish for the days when Emily Post and Miss Manners had a say-so in daily life. I don't think I am the only one who gets a little confused when it comes to rules of etiquette, so I thought I might look up a few "rules" to help me teach my kids how to behave appropriately at parties. This is a simple list of things I will teach my young kids to remember. If you're the host... Write a very clear invitation. People want to know what is expected of them—dress up, dress casual, don't bring a gift, eat before you come, etc. Be gracious. Every party has its bumps. Roll with those bumps, and be accommodating instead of throwing a fit that everything isn't perfect. You and your guests will have a better time! Be gracious. I know I said that already, but really, it is totally up to you as the host to make sure all your guests …
