SB Finds : De Todo Un Poco

It’s safe to say that we’ve all had a Fisher-Price toy at some point in our lives. Whether we played with one as kids or bought one for our little ones, we’ve built many memories involving our favorite Fisher-Price toys and baby gear. That’s why we were thrilled when we got the chance to host the Fisher-Price’s Room to Bloom event in Los Angeles. We got to catch up with some of our fellow bloggers over brunch and discover fabulousRead More ...

  Having just given birth to mi milagro, the importance of preserving my culture has been heavy on my mind. In addition, being the only Spanish speaking caretaker in our children’s lives presents its own set of challenges. Language is truly the most impactful way I celebrate and embrace my heritage with my children. For that reason, I am always on the look out for supportive and informed communities in which to engage with other like-minded parents. In celebrating ourRead More ...

A couple of weeks ago I discovered Children’s Inspire Design thanks to a giveaway going on at Design Mom. I instantly fell in love with the colors, the designs, the textures, the quirkiness and sensibility, but most of all with the fact that creator Rebecca Peragine made a collection inspired by kids around the globe. Rebecca went through the trouble of making versions of many of her prints, posters and wall cards–all perfect to decorate any nursery or kids room–inRead More ...

For the past two decades, Healthy Child has been on a mission-and very successful at it- to “ignite a movementRead More ...

“Que Divina!” I loved the Babel Animalitos T-shirt from the moment I saw it. The t-shirt comes in pink and blue and features three pairs of animalitos “speaking” in both English and Spanish. As our little Spanglish children all know, the doggie says “Guau Guau” in Spanish, but “Woof” in English. The sombreroed pajaritos on this shirt chirp, “Pio Pio!” It made me and Marisol both smile immediately with its playful graphics. I noticed right away that the shirt wasRead More ...

This year marks the second year I’ve organized a “Secret Santa” gift exchange through the website Elfster.com – and now that a Spanish version, Amigo Secreto, has launched, I’ll have the option to play Santa Claus with my friends en español! While designed for adults, Amigo Secreto would be a great way to let kids, (maybe primos in a large family!) – organize an exchange amongst themselves while practicing language skills. All one needs to sign up is an E-mailRead More ...
