New York International Gift Fair Wrap-Up

OK, this will be a long post (lots of photos) but I wanted to make sure I got to show you the rest of my favorite goodies from the New York International Gift Fair before I start preparing to visit another great show in a few more weeks. So without further ado:

The lovely folks at 3 Sprouts (remember they did a giveaway here last year?) have just designed these fab carseat/stroller covers (take that, Bundle Me!). 3 Sprouts is popping up everywhere these days- their line is carried at Giggle. Stay tuned for another 3 Sprouts giveaway...


If you're a fan of modern design for kids, you'll love everything by 10 grain, including this U Roll Scooter ($175), sold at Design Public. Love the Small Paul graphics.


Entertaining gift wrap (check out the text) by Bobs Your Uncle. Their wholesale site lists online retailers, but I don't think they carry these new items yet.


I met the designer of these Metrocard T-shirts (so cute for NYC kids like mine). They are not yet sold at the New York Transit Museum Store but check out that site anyway for other great subway-themed apparel including subway map hoodies and subway line tees for kids.


I had a long chat with the rep at the Hatley booth. I was curious whether their raincoats (pictured here) were PVC-free. They are! If, like me, you have been dismayed to find that most kids raincoats (including the popular Kidorable brand) contain PVC, this is good news indeed.


There were LOTS of tote bags to be found at the Gift Fair, but these organic cotton ones by Rock Scissor Paper stood out for their retro-yet-fresh designs.


Check out this clever Blanket + Poncho combo by Supernatural Baby- one great design, two functions! Check out the link to see how it works.


Last but not least, one of my favorite small finds from the Gift Show were these Funkie Baby monogrammed baby bibs with vintage fabric trim. Their website is not quite done. I like these so much I just may have to ask them if they'd like to do a giveaway here!


Hope you've enjoyed reading these Gift Fair reports as much as I loved being there! Stay tuned for reports from Bubble NY in March!
