This weekend, Skip Hop was one of the sponsors of the 15th annual “Kids For Kids” celebrity carnival in NYC, a major fundraising event for the Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation. The event was a huge success!

Skip Hop sponsored a Decoration Station, where hundreds of kids got to decorate their own Skip Hop Bin-Go. Gloria Reuben helped at the booth. Donny Deutsch and former Giants football player Howard Cross came by to make Bin-Gos with their kids. Also visiting the booth were Leighton Meester, Kelly Rutherford and Hallie Eisenberg.

Skip Hop recently gifted two singles moms with $750 worth of our products during a segment on The Tyra Banks Show.

The segment, which featured Solange Knowles, focused on the lives of women juggling their careers and single motherhood

Skip Hop was proud to be able to provide these women with an array of Skip Hop products, including toys, diaper bags and feeding essentials.  We are always happy when we can make all parents lives a little easier.

Did you know that we use Agion technology in a number of our products?  Agion’s technology makes products cleaner and safer with silver—nature's antimicrobial. Agion’s patented technology provides built-in protection by naturally and continuously resisting the growth of microbes.

We have a special pocket in our fully featured, innovative Via Messenger that includes the Agion coating.  Use this pocket for your dirty duds with the confidence that it will resist the growth of odor causing bacteria.  Another reason why the Via Messenger, with its patented Shuttle Clips for stroller attachment, is one of the most innovative and functional diaper bags on the market.  It's a bag that we at Skip Hop are very proud of.

We also just started using Agion treated fabric in our Pacifier Pockets.  Ours are the only pacifier holders that include such a great feature.  And nobody will disagree that it's important to do everything you can to resist the growth of bacteria in the place where you keep pacifiers!  And now the pacifier pockets come in four cool new colors.

At Skip Hop, we are always innovating, using the latest technology to make products better for parents everywhere!

Skip Hop was thrilled to be one of the participants in Ovarian Cancer Research Fund, Super Saturday 11 in the Hamptons. Dubbed the "Rolls Royce of Garage Sales" by The New York Times, attendees supported a great cause while filling those shopping bags with over 200 designer selling wares at deep discounts – from handbags and apparel to shoes and Baby Bags!

We loved meeting all of our wonderful fans as well as some very pregnant moms-to-be who were scooping up Skip Hop goodies! Celebs spotted shopping included Molly Sims, Kelly Ripa and Russell Simmons.

A shout out to fellow baby company participants Appaman, Dwell and Wallcandy Arts! We were thrilled to be a part of this wonderful event for the 3rd year.
