Children's Club - New York, New York (8/2/09 - 8/4/09)


It’s show time again and the ENK Children’s Club Show at Pier 94 in New York City did not disappoint. It was heart-warming to witness the pursuit of so much good old American business. I saw orders being written, lots of smiles and laughter and a general sense of purpose. The Giggle Guide™ has found some outstanding lines featured, from high styles taken from the runway to educational threads and one-of-a-kind gifts. Here are our highlights from the shows, including Saurette, Meta Threads, Tangerine Sky, Tree by Kerri Lee and Earnest Sewn Kids.

Do we really know what our kids are watching on television these days? There are lots of television shows that are approved for children and are both child and parent friendly. But do we take the time to actually watch them? Spending time with your family watching a T.V. show or a made for television movie can be a great way to bond with them and start up good conversations, but are all the shows appropriate?

At The Giggle Guide™, our “Road to Success” series shares the interesting paths leaders in the children’s industry have taken that have guided and influenced their businesses. We recently heard about the journey of Pat Martinek, founder of Martinek BéBé. We’ve all heard about “Renaissance men,” but nothing about “Renaissance women.” Pat is a true Renaissance woman. She is known for her award-winning furniture products — round & rectangular cribs, hand-forged cradles, armoires, toy chests and other baby-oriented furniture — plus innovative, elegantly designed store fixtures.

Bubble - Kids Trade Show - New York, New York (8/2/09 - 8/4/09)

The Bubble Kids Trade Show in New York was bursting with new collections for Spring/Summer 2010! Bubble is known for showcasing emerging brands and euro-inspired trends that set retailers apart, and this year was no different. The Giggle Guide™ attended Bubble and discoverd some lines that offer a classic sense of style, with a modern focus on comfort and social responsibility: Benny & Moon, Live with Love, Adooka Organics, and Chase ‘n Sky .

Although this spotting was in 2007, I can’t resist posting it now! After all, Brad Pitt and Angeline Jolie are Hollywood’s hottest couple and their children are just as important to the tabloids these days. Brad and Angelina were photographed strolling with their daughters, Zahara and Shiloh, in New Orleans in May of 2007. Zahara was given a BopStar BabyMakes3, Big Sister basket from BopStar Baby which contains No Slippy Hair Clips. She is shown here wearing our Shocking Pink Fuzzy Birthday Cake clip! Isn’t she just precious!?

In addition to the fabulous new, eco-friendly packaging on our original line, we’re launching delicious new prints in our popular Chic line of Clean Shoppers and Clean Diners as well! And our Chic line comes complete with adorably trendy, reusable drawstring totes. We’ll be showing off our new Loop D Loop and Black & White prints at the September ABC show, so you can buy everything in time for the holidays! Visit us at the show, Booth #320, for a sneak peak at everything Chic!

Angela Edgeworth, the co-founder of pediped footwear, recently sat down with Erin Clack of Footwear News to discuss her newly blooming company and why her shoes really are that amazing.

FN: Pediped turns five this year. Are you surprised by how quickly the company has grown?
AE: Yes, but we were always working hard, so we didn’t have much time to enjoy it and sit back and pat ourselves on the back. [Considering the rapid growth], we quickly revised our plans and goals for the company, and since then, we have been on track — even in the downturn.

Ahh, the joys of teething. After just a few months of life, that sweet, cooing baby starts to fuss with teething pain. Teething babies will chew on anything within reach, including their mother’s favorite jewelry, to help relieve the pain. Most jewelry isn’t designed to stand up to this constant gnawing and can easily become damaged or pose safety risks to little ones. Knowing this, many mothers sadly put away their jewelry. Well, The Giggle Guide® thinks moms should keep their bling and provide baby with some comfort! We have found some of the most stylish and responsible lines of teething jewelry that moms can proudly wear both at home and out on the town. There are some great pieces for dads too!

You read it here first … THE hottest new fashion accessory has just hit the market and you can hear the squeals of delight from little girls everywhere.

Legruffles by Huggalugs are gorgeous legwarmers with a distinctively feminine difference.

“Knitted with a cotton blend yarn, to give a soft, flowing feel to the final finish, their flounces cascade down little girls’ legs with an air of whimsy,” said mother of two and Managing Director of Huggalugs Elizar Mytka.
