Stuff We Like: Cool Products for Kids and Parents - March 2010

Check out these new and noteworthy products just for kids and parents! Features this month include Heidi Klum's new maternity clothing lines, a special new night light for young children, and more.

Project Maternity Wear

Supermodel and mother of four (yes, four!), Heidi Klum recently launched two new maternity lines: Lavish By Heidi Klum for A Pea in the Pod, and Loved By Heidi Klum for Motherhood Maternity. "I chose to call my collection for A Pea in the Pod Lavish because there is no grander name to express everything you want to give yourself and the child growing within you," said Heidi Klum.  "For Motherhood Maternity, Loved is a celebration of new life and the love around you and your baby. I experienced fashion challenges during my four pregnancies and combined my knowledge of what works in terms of style, comfort and practicality to create these lines. They are all about making you feel beautiful; being pregnant shouldn't stop you from being fashionable and feeling great about your changing body.  It's an exciting journey." Heidi's collection includes the oversized georgette top with signature hand-drawn print (pictured) for $39.98 and second-skin dark wash jean with top stitching detail for $34.98. 

Best Feature: Looking fashionable amidst the many pregnancy body changes - not only necessary but fabulous.

Price: Varies; moderately priced

Unwind With Tai Chi

If you're looking for a fun and relaxing way to help your child focus and feel good about herself, consider trying Tai Chi. This form of mind/body exercise can be done by any age or level of fitness, and help you relax in as little as five to 10 minutes per day. This CD set is now available for use in the comfort of your own home. Tai Chi Moves can be done in the morning to wake up, after lunch to refocus and get back to work, and at bedtime to relax and fall asleep. Tai Chi Moves for Kids is for kids up to grade 3 and Tai Chi Moves is for older kids and adults. Each set includes a CD Rom video for the computer to help learn the moves and an audio CD for regular practice.
