Svan baby carrier cover is warm and fuzzy, comfy and cozy and will make your little one snug as a bug, brought to you by babesta.com, purveyor of cool threads for badass babies and trendsetting tots

Speaking of Svan, the other really cool thing they make that keeps your little one toasty is the Baby Carrier Cover. It affixes around the carseat so that the only thing exposed is your munchkin's mug. What I wouldn't do for an adult version of one of these while sitting in my LaZboy watching Laguna Beach on a cold winter's night...

Modern ride for toddlers by Svan, a great way to jet around the loft; brought to you by Babesta.com, purveyor of cool threads for badass babies and trendsetting tots.

It's transporation week, it seems, at Babesta (but all babies need pimp-worthy rides, right?) I saw this first on daddytypes (great blog), but it deserved reiteration: The Svan scooter! The coolest thing that Svan has designed -- due out November 2005. Your little oh-so-modern seed can zip around with this simple and chic ride. For the more artistic (rather than materialistic: see yesterday's post) child.

Naughty toddlers know they've been bad when they get told to go to the Time Out Pad, Round room friendly, brought to you by Babesta, purveyor of cool threads for badass babies and trendsetting tots

When regular old corners won't do. The Time Out Pad from Kitson shows your wee one just where to stand in when contemplating exactly why she dumped that plate of spaghetti on her brother's head or the ramifications of overusing allocated cell phone minutes. I didn't know I needed it until I saw it. Making "Time out" a colorful and stylish experience.

Hello Kitty! Adorable Calico cat stuffed animals for your kiddies, brought to you by Babesta.com, purveyor of cool threads for badass babies and trendsetting tots

I'm not totally into quilts, as my pad is what one would call eclectic modernist, however, these nifty little teddy cats (editorial liberty) with brightly colored fabric are right on. With cute as a button eyes, you can't go wrong. $21.50 - "inspired by a flea market find". Offered in red floral or black polka dots with vintage button eyes. Would look great with simple modern elegant furniture, as the cats just "pop!"
