Dads-to-Be! Announce Your Big News with BellyMan

Tuesday, May 31st, 2011

Yay, BellyMan (http://www NULL.bellymanclothing NULL.com/)! We just love this line of vintage-inspired, uber-soft T’s for dads-to-be. Thanks to a lovely dandelion KIDS client for showing us her niece’s cool line.

BellyMan (http://www NULL.bellymanclothing NULL.com/) offers dads the chance to wear their paternity proudly but subtly. Authentic, unique, with universal appeal and sure to spark loads of conversations. Created by a Chicago couple with babies and business on the brains. As parents to two trendsetting toddlers, they understand and appreciate the role that both parents play — from the time they conceive, onward. Noticing a vacancy in attire for expectant men, they birthed BellyMan.

We know it’s sometimes hard to remember what special toys and other items are on your child’s wish list since they started making it in July! So we created a little wish list for Santa to make it easier for you and give your kids a project to do. Fill out the dandelion KIDS wish list and we will keep it on file for you. When your friends and family come into the store (or email us) wondering what to get your child for Christmas, we’ll have the answers! And we promise, we’ll check it twice!

Rub-a-dub-dub…babies in a tub!

Wednesday, September 29th, 2010

Babies and toddlers absolutely love bath-time!

Here a few of our favourite products for making it even more soothing, fun, splashy or whatever works for your family:

Little Twig Bubble Bath and Baby Wash (http://shop NULL.dandelionkids NULL.ca/index NULL.php?search=little%20twig) helps make the bath even more relaxing. Available in 2 subtle scents as well as Unscented for more sensitive babies.  Little Twig products are made in the USA.

Weleda’s Calendula Baby line (http://shop NULL.dandelionkids NULL.ca/index NULL.php?search=weleda) is of the highest quality and made in Germany. We especially like the Calendula Shampoo and Body Wash and the Calendula Oil for a soothing after bath massage.

For a more active bath-time, splish splash around with cool bath toys like phthalate-free Water Squirts, BPA-, PVC-, and Phthalate-free Green Toys Tugboats (http://shop NULL.dandelionkids NULL.ca/tug01r-a NULL.html), made of 100% recycled plastic milk jugs in the USA, and Dano Duckis, (http://shop NULL.dandelionkids NULL.ca/index NULL.php?search=ducki) also  BPA-, PVC-, and Phthalate-free.

Once baby is all wrapped up in a cosy hooded towel (http://shop NULL.dandelionkids NULL.ca/index NULL.php?search=towel) like those by Canadian company 3 Sprouts, the Boon Frog or Bug Pod (http://shop NULL.dandelionkids NULL.ca/index NULL.php?search=pod)will help you clean up with ease. Just scoop up all those fun toys and, voila, a clean tub!

Now, if only there were some products to save you from getting completely soaked!

The making of Dandelion KIDS Back to School Window

Friday, September 3rd, 2010

We’ve been asked many times where we get our ideas for our windows, so we thought we would share the building of our ‘Back to School’ window display at our Commercial Drive location.

All photos have been taken on the iPhone.

First:  We had the desks painted by our friend Sean at AL Creations. Thanks Sean!

Oh so neat and tidy all in a row.

Then Jimmy and Pete loaded them up and delivered them. Thanks Jimmy and Pete, we think you’re swell!


Then we stacked them and realized that we had to hold them in place while Greg used wire to secure them… This took many, many hours… We even ran out of wire and had to go get more.

But the wine helped us cope… See, now we’re smiling. Miss Maggie even gave us a leg up.


And voila!  We’re done.  Phew.

How Much Fun is Wednesday Morning Story-Time?

New Products: Daily Tea Clothing

Tuesday, May 4th, 2010

We’ve just received our newest arrivals of Daily Tea for boys and girls, newborn to 5 years.

An incredibly well thought-out collection that mix and matches perfectly, Daily Tea allows you to go for a streamlined look or a fantastic blend of pattern and colour.  All made of 100% cotton.

For Spring/Summer 2010, the designers at Tea were captivated by South Korea – from the bustle and color of Seoul’s city streets to the rugged, natural beauty of Jejudo, Korea’s largest volcanic island. The Spring collection celebrates the vibrancy, beauty and balance of this extraordinary destination.
