On Friday, Martha Stewart aired her Baby Shower Show—full of fun segments like a baby fashion show and a gender reveal cake! But our favorite had to be the last, in which Martha catalogued the best baby finds out there, from strollers to baby monitors. A Skip Hop Wave Dot Duo was included as well! The best part: Every mama-to-be in the audience (200 of them!) got to take home our best-selling diaper bag, chock full of goodies featured on the episode. We were honored to be a part of it, and loved hanging with Martha! Be sure to check out the episode, too.
Why a blog?
- Because every day, we're working hard to understand the many ways that new parents adjust to their lives, and this is where we can share with you what we learn. That and other stuff that strikes our fancy!

Who We Support
- Every time you buy a Skip Hop product, a percentage of the profits are given to a number of organizations much more important than we are. In particular, a portion of your purchase goes towards supporting the Pediatric Aids Foundation and The Ovarian Cancer Research Fund .

Skip Hop named one of Babble's Best!
The digital parenting mecca, Babble, just released their list of the Best Baby Shower Gifts of 2012, and Skip Hop is proud to have been recognized for three of our products! Our crib sheets got a nice shout-out in the "Essentials" category, the super-new Zoo Playspot recieved a nod in the "Toys" section, and, perhaps best of all, our diaper bag collaboration with Jonathan Adler got its due in "Just for Mom". We're blushing!

Celebrating the Year of the Dragon!
The year of the dragon is upon us and Skip Hop is celebrating with a special edition collection of dragon Packs and Bibs. Sorry kids, it's only available in Asia but we wanted to share the inspiration behind the collection.
Fun fact! In Chinese culture, it is considered good fortune to be born in the year of the dragon. A baby boom is expected and Hong Kong hospitals are booked up!

12 Days of Hoppers: Day 12!!
Name: Sandylee
Position: Receptionist
Favorite gift you received as a kid? The ULTIMATE Christmas gift I received as a child was a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle Crime Time Van! I mean this bad boy had the coolest features! It came with an army-like hiding tank covered in turtle shell yet still had a fem touch of April’s reporting vehicle! My favorite part was when the side door shot open my turtle of choice (usually Rafael!) would be sitting on this 'door-seat' feature and slime would shoot out attacking any of Shredders crew standing nearby! I know, so RAD! I always fell short when competing with my cousin, Enrique. That Christmas the lack of ability to win due to the shortage of gadgets was all over and I was ahead of the game!
