When you just need a little light protection from the weather, these Bundle Me Lites from the JJ Cole Collections will do the job. I’ve seen the extra-deluxe, extra-thick car and stroller bundles, and they’re fine for serious weather, but also very bulky. These bundles wrap baby in soft cotton and are designed to work with three- or five-point harnesses in carseats or strollers.

If you’re considering a baby shower gift, these bundles are also available with personalization  for a small additional cost. They fit infants size 0 to 12 months and come in Pink, Blue, Gray, Navy and Chocolate, priced at $34 at PotteryBarnKids.com.

If you’re already thinking of Christmas gifts for your daughter, granddaughter or niece, you might like to consider this Janie Jewelry Box Collection by Pottery Barn Kids. Each piece comes in a  high-gloss finish. The vanity and chest both have a mirror and ring rolls, and the chest features a ballerina twirling to “Somewhere Over The Rainbow.” The small table box has a flip-top lid and one drawer. This collection is actually designed to match Pottery Barn Kids’ Janie collection of furniture.

Having a special place to store her jewelry and special trinkets will make them even more special and give your little girl the opportunity to learn how to care for her things. That won’t be too difficult, however, with this miniature furniture set that’s as much fun to look at and play with as it is functional. Visit PotteryBarnKids.com where you can purchase each piece separately. Prices range from $24.99 to $54.99 (on sale).

The Safety 1st Baby’s Deluxe Grooming Collection is an organized way to keep all of your baby’s grooming essentials, not just for travel but also on baby’s dresser/changing table. If you remember to put things back after you use them, you know where they are when you need them. Sounds like common sense but most of us really have to work at it. But once you get into the habit of putting things back where they belong, and this little case has a place for everything, you’ll be a much saner mommy.

Also known as the Hospital’s Choice, this kit includes: 1 nail clipper, 8 emery boards, no scratch mittens, toddler brush and comb, cradle cap comb, toddler toothbrush, and an infant gum massager, all in a convenient travel case. It’s appropriate for use from birth on up.

This neat little kit is priced at $39.99 at Amazon.com.
