These Cambodian Jingle Bells Anklets caught my eye and I had to take a closer look. This clever piece of jewelry serves a higher purpose. The Jingle Bells serve as an “auditory clue” to your child’s movements and activity. Besides serving as a safety measure, these Jingle Bells are very decorative and even appropriate for the season. It’s going to be a busy time for us moms (as usual) and any help is welcome, especially if helps to keep our children safe. But I still think that they’re just adorable.

These were recently seen in the Celebrity BUMP bag on “The View” during Elisabeth Hasselbeck’s televised baby shower. Visit  PoshTots.com to take a closer look. They anklet is priced at $40 and comes in two sizes. It would make a great shower or holiday gift.

I can’t count how many times I sat with my little girl as she cried and complained about her sore legs. It was nothing you could see or put your finger on, just the normal aches of growing pains. I used the over-the-counter ointments and salves to soothe the aches and massaged her legs and ankles. We kept a heating pad handy as the warmth seemed to have some effect. But this little Carter The Bear Cornbag Critter might have done more to cheer her up as well as soothe her aches. And maybe there’s something more comforting by having your own personal little Cornbag Critter to help you through the pains.

Made of 100% fluffy cotton chenille, Carter the Bear can also help soothe earaches, backaches, or cramps. It measures 8 inches in diameter. Visit BarefootBella.net to purchase, where it is priced at $19.99 and available in a variety of characters.

With Christmas on its way, I’ve been considering presents for my new little one. Though it’s not a grand purchase, the RaZBaby RaZ-Berry Silicone Teether is a fun stocking stuffer. Available In happy colors with a functional design, the teether/pacifier is non-toxic and freezer safe.

This could be a gift for any little one — it’s not gender specific. Buy it for the little boy and the little girl on your holiday gift list. Best of all, it is only $3.95 at babyearth.com.

This is a beautiful gift set that includes one Avocado Damask nursing cover, one Pink & Cocoa Damask bamboo blanket, and three sets of two burp cloths in Avocado Damask. You might try to find a way to just mention that Nicole Kidman received this eco-friendly gift bag for the birth of little Sunday Rose.

The Itzy Rizty Bitzy Burper Summer Rose Gift Bag can be viewed at sandboxcouture.com where it is priced at $130. I think this is an all-around great gift for baby’s shower because it includes several terrific features: it’s made fro eco-friendly materials, the blanket is made from bamboo products which are much more baby-friendly for keeping baby cool and comfortable, the set includes a matching nurser and it’s Damask.

Parents can purchase very elaborate mobiles for our child’s nursery and there are some really spectacular mobiles out there, but I like this simple Sheep Mobile by Pottery Barn Kids with its graphic black and white design. It’s delicate, and actually, black and white patterns help infants focus and develop their visual acuity. The soft, felt sheep are suspended along a circular frame from silky grosgrain ribbons. The mobile mounts to the ceiling (hardware included).

Visit PotteryBarnKids.com where you can purchase this item on sale for just $24.99 (from $39). You’ll also be able to view matching items for the nursery with the same graphic black and white design.
