Junior Towne Blog

One of the exciting and heartbreaking things about this time of the year is getting to see all the new products at the All Children’s and Babies  (ABC) Show in Las Vegas. Exciting because just when you think that they could not come up with anything more for children, someone has a totally new concept that blows you away. Heartbreaking because what you buy has to fit into a budget and you can’t buy everything in sight.!

Some of the new and innovative products that I saw while there:

The hot topic for the entire show was “organics,” whether it was in clothing, toys, bedding, or whatever. Sage Creek Organics had some very cute layette clothing for spring. Under the Nile (high quality from Egypt) had terrific new prints in their playsets. Vuilli was featuring natural rubber toys perfect for teething, including Sophie the Giraffe, a retro-pattern dating from the 50’s. Ergo Baby had some wonderful new fabrics in their organic baby carrier line. And finally even Robeez has some organic baby shoes for spring.

Three things of special interest to Alaskans were the new Arctic Baby Carrier by JJ Cole, a heavier version of their Bundle Me, 7 AM’s new colors for their baby carseat covers (love those Canadians!) and
new rainsuits by a company from New Zealand perfect for our weather.

Another new item which is a great idea with the increasing number of C-sections is the C-Panty for faster healing.

Baby Legs, Jujube diaper bags, Mud Pie, Little Giraffe and See Kai Run show are just a few of the companies coming out with great colors and amazing textures.

Many of these items are on the way to Junior Towne now but others we won’t see until spring. They are all worth the wait.

See you soon!
