hanging in that space of 'so ugly, they're adorable', house of ingri naugahyde stuffies have faces anyone will love. for us 80's kids - the sweet mugs are ever-so-slightly reminiscent of ET but without the creepy, alien thing. so, so cute & hand-made in brooklyn.

c'mon - the 80's are 'vintage' to your baby! bright colors & a glossy (read: wipeable) finish make this pop art rocker super kid-friendly.

no one does pop up like robert sabuda, even the most media-numb kids will light up at the 3-dimensional worlds he creates for the classics. and savvy parents will love the lewis carol psychedelic induced story from a whole new perspective...

Modern silhouettes are genius. Karl Johnson is a young, 3rd generation cut paper artist who has been commissioned by some of the chicest publications & events - with good reason - he's extremely talented. The 2nd best part? His hand-cut, custom portraits start at just $25. Everyone should have original artwork in their home. Now there's no excuse not to! I'll be commissioning portraits of friends, kids & pets this year for Christmas gifts...

oh, yeah. it's old school. i totally remember my beloved viewmaster, the 'land of the lost' reels were a fave. magical gifts that help parents reminisce & don't require batteries or make noise are always a plus. you can find new viewmaster reels on everything from sesame street to mid-century modern architecture. i want one!

this bright plastic 'zooka' shoots a harmless ball of air. hilarious when aimed at the elaborately coiffed. no worrying about kiddie knocking down grandma's ming vase with a nerf dart, requires no batteries or other acoutrements that could be swallowed or lost, and could spark an interest in physics...i'm just sayin'.
