Review: Kinderwagon Hop Tandem Umbrella Stroller

Courtesy Kinderwagon

You know a stroller is unique when moms on the street stop to ask you about it. But when they offer to buy it from you on the spot, you know you’re pushing something special.

And that’s what happens when you take the Kinderwagon ($299) for a spin.

The light double stroller (designed by a real mom of three!) is built narrow to fit almost anywhere and collapses easily when you’re on the go.

And, thanks to very cool stadium-seating, your second passenger can enjoy the view along with your first.

Review: Phil & Teds Promenade Stroller

You swore you would never use a double stroller that places one of your tots on the bottom.

The kid underneath can’t see the world and gets the bum end of deal (literally).

Well, you may become a convert after seeing phil & teds new Promenade Stroller ($850 – $1,000), the perfect option for those with a preschooler and toddler.

Just strap in the youngest and the oldest can jump in and out of the bottom seat and ride like they are in an Acela private car with their goldfish, juice box and iPad.

And if you extend your family further (3 is the new 2), the promenade and its eight possible configurations will still keep you rolling.

Review: Joovy’s Upgraded Groove Umbrella Stroller

Remember Joovy‘s Groove Stroller, last seen in 2009?

Well, it has been redesigned and now packs lots of new features and a super smooth ride.

Check out our review of the upgraded version ($200) below.

Things We Like: Suitable for babies 3 months and up, this umbrella stroller can last until your child hits 55 lbs. It also sports wide seats and a high seat back so tall children will easily fit, especially with the generously sized sun canopy.

Another great improvement is an automatic lock added to the fold. Plus, the aluminum frame also makes it sturdier, so if you load it down with shopping bags, it doesn’t tip easily.

With a new year comes a new resolve to pack healthy and delicious lunches for our children. But it’s not always easy.

A lot of work goes into cutting, chopping, spreading and slicing so that everything is just right. And when half of it comes home uneaten at the end of the day, it’s hard to find the motivation to do it all again the next day.

Fret no more! We’ve found the coolest, eco-friendly lunch containers on the market that both you and your tots will love.

Not only are they easy to pack and fun to carry, but they’re guaranteed to get your little ones excited to eat their mid-day meal.

Review: Dyson Hot

When there’s a little baby in the house, it’s nice to know things will be warm and toasty during a cold winter.

And with just a touch of a button, Dyson‘s new Hot ($400) is just the thing to keep rooms at exactly the right temperature.

In their typical “they’ve thought of everything” way, the company has created the most amazing heater we’ve ever seen.

Not only does it come with temperature control, tip-over automatic cut-out and a remote control, but the bladeless design makes it really easy to clean.
