Remember the fun of making tents and hiding places when you were a kid? You’d gather as many blankets and pillows as you could find and swipe a couple of chairs from the dining room. With two little hands and one big imagination, you would turn these simple household items into a cozy den in the forest or a pioneer camp on the Great Plains. Toddler TeePees by Imaginenation are a fun and easy way for children to enjoy the tradition of tent play, without all the hassle of set-up and take-down.

The tractor-beam draw of collectibles has been an enduring part of human nature since the first man started collecting brightly colored stones. Just about any item can be considered a collectible, but there is a strong focus on the smaller, easily accessible items that provide instant gratification and long-term pleasure. While collectibles can be part of an investment strategy, they also provide diligent collectors with a sense of order and achievement. Collectible brands, like Peaceable Kingdom, Iwako, Stink Factory and Momiji offer aficionados an ever-growing fascination with tiny and colorful treasures.

It seems the second a woman finds out she’s having a girl, her feminine side is ramped up and she can’t get enough ruffles and frills! For some lucky moms, their daughters turn into girly-girls and the pink and precious outfits last throughout toddlerhood and into childhood. For the thrills that only frills can offer, The Giggle Guide^® presents Attitude Pie, Bon Bon Cupcakes, and RuffleButts… brands that give that extra touch of girly with, what else? Ruffles!

At one time or another, even the most-cherished child may feel he or she isn’t worthy of being loved. Maybe a big brother has been unkind to a younger sibling and been reprimanded. Or, a kid gets angry at the playground and is given a time-out under Mom’s not-too-pleased eye. For a story that helps build self-esteem while pointing out that everyone deserves love no matter what difficulties have transpired, consider Dorothy and the Good Shepherd, the first title in the Lamplight series from Cane Creek Publishers.
