A Buyer’s Gift Buffet in Atlanta

An extravaganza full of the newest designs and fabulous creations is at the The Atlanta International Gift & Home Furnishings Market^®, running July 14th through July 21st at AmericasMart. With more than 4,000 showrooms and an abundance of temporary booths, you can be sure to find exactly what you need for the upcoming season, all in one place! The Giggle Guide^® spotlights just a few of the exhibitors to whet your appetite: A Light in the Night, Acting Out, Chi Chi Baby, and Dead Sea Pavilion.

A Light in the Night Comforts with a Peaceful Glow

Creative mompreneur Sandy Harsanyi Murphy came up with A Light in the Night as a way to comfort her eldest son when the approach of a new sibling required he give up his baby crib for a “big boy bed.” Murphy didn’t want her little son to be afraid, so she went to work creating a comforting friend that would “chase all the monsters away.”

With a gentle press on its tummy, each adorable plush critter emits a soft green glow that provides a calming sense of security for a child. A Light in the Night creatures are available in Bubble Gum Pink, Mint Green, or Ice Blue and each one comes with its own illustrated board book, making it a special gift set that provides plenty of reassuring comfort during a child’s bedtime routine. Retail price is $34.95 per set. This is the perfect gift for a big brother or sister as they welcome a new sibling, but is also a highly appreciated present for any occasion!

Acting Out Steals the Show!

Never before has fantasy attire given little performers a better reason to twirl, dance and sing; Acting Out musical dress-up offers a fantastic line of fun-wear that has kids keeping time with the beat of their favorite tunes! Beautifully designed costumes, skirts, and dresses with vibrant colors and fun fabrics keep creative kids moving to their own beat.

Acting Out’s newest addition is an incredibly soft blanket that incorporates their award-winning music. A music box is safely hidden away inside a PVC lined pocket, and the cuddly softness of minky fleece and butter soft satin trim ensures that this blankie will be a fast favorite. Baby is quickly and gently lulled to sleep with the soothing tune of Brahm’s Lullaby.

Chi Chi Baby designer baby bottles and one-pieces are practical picks for on-trend mod moms and their infants. The blazin’ “hot” bottles fill to a standard 8 oz. size and are compatible with name brand nipples. Each bottle uses sterilized disposable liners to ensure cleanliness.

Designed to be a fashionable alternative to hum-drum nursing bottles, these sassy satiators are made of dishwasher-safe, shatter-resistant plastic that is BPA and lead-free. Fun-loving embellishments that declare baby’s happening style are safely nested between two layers of plastic to ensure durability. Theme sets of bottles and one-pieces include Rock Star, Little Princess and Royal Crowns. Babies are sure to enjoy the playful and stimulating view while they suckle their way to toddlerhood.
