 Rating: - Perfect Baby Shower/New Baby GiftUsusally skeptical about some so-called "experts" rating kids' products, I happen to catch one of the co-authors one morning on NBC's Today Show.

I have never found age appropriate shopping such a joy. The reviews are always on and being able to know approximate prices has been a real help. My children are partial to Groovy Girls and all their accessories. I have seen the Oppenheims on NBC many times and know this is one of their favorites. I usually find myself baffled when it comes ... Read More
