I continue to be amazed by how much laundry my eight week old manages to generate on a daily basis. Although I don’t like the way it looks in her nursery, her messiness has necessitated a hamper. I just went with a natural linen one because it is the least distracting one I could find, but I would have loved to have had something that coordinates a little better with her furniture and bedding. If you are in a similar boat, or are still in the process of designing a nursery for your baby-to-be, you might consider these fun hampers from Hoohobbers. The design is simple, but the best part is that there are 35 different fabric options to choose from, so you can fairly easily customize the basket to fit your nursery. At $80, this product isn’t cheap, but it is a practical baby necessity that will get a lot of use. You can purchase one at luxurybabynursery.com. Your basket can be personlaized for an additional $12.

The Hoohobbers Infant Rocker Etoile is very pretty. It is available in a variety of prints and colors. What I like about this rocker is that it is light enough and portable enough to take along on visits to family and friends. Not everyone’s home is baby-ready.  With this Hoohobbers Infant Rocker you can set up your baby’s “area” and she’ll be safe and secure and happily bouncing. Baby can sit with the adults and be the center of attention while mom still has some mobility.

This rocker features a sling that cradles baby naturally like a mother’s arms. The baby’s own motion creates a smooth, gentle motion that is supposed to be more soothing than regular bouncer. The rocker also has a full, removable hood that protects baby from harsh light and wind, indoors and out. There are colorful, spinning characters on the removable toy bar that will engage your baby. Another neat feature is the rocker’s turn-down feet which can adjust amount of rocking, or stop it completely.

The Hoohobbers Infant Rocker is made of a solid polypropylene frame sling that measures 14″Wx24″D. All of its fabrics are 100% cotton and machine washable. You can also personalize the rocker with embroidery.

You can purchase this unique rocker for $78 at  maddiescloset.com.

The Hoohobbers Retro Circle Sleeping Bag solves some important problems with sleeping bags. First, it comes with an attached pillow so you don’t have to pack one separately or stuff one into the bag. Second, it has its own carrying belt so you just have to roll it up and tie it up. With these simple additions, your chances of getting the sleeping bag back in one piece are much better. I don’t know how many times I’ve packed sleeping bags for my children and they usually come back unfolded, sans pillow. This Hoohobbers Sleeping Bag is child-size and looks compact and easy to handle.

The sleeping bag is over 2 1/2″ thick, and is lined with fluffy , cozy double-brushed flannel 100% cotton. The bag also features a full side-to-bottom zipper that allows you to lay the entire bag flat.The Hoohobbers Retro Circle Sleeping Bag measures 27″ W x 56″L and is designed for ages 2-8 years. It can also be personalized with embroidery.

I have been spending a lot of time lately looking for the perfect baby seat—one that is comfortable for a baby without being an eyesore for parents. I just saw this seat from Hoohobbers for the first time. I’m not sure that this is ultimately the seat for me, but I am definitely drawn to the simplicity of its design. It is made of 100% cotton, machine washable fabrics. A unique feature allows you to adjust the feet to control the amount of motion. There are no electronic or vibrating parts—the baby’s own motion moves the seat. That is a definitely plus in my book—no batteries to change, and no worries about over-stimulation. A simple toy bar adds an extra level of amusement for little ones. The canopy is removable. You can purchase one for $64.95 at www.babyearth.com.
