I could swear I had a wooden toy or two that were so much like our newest offerings by Pinch Toys: charming wooden elephant puzzles, a rolling duck, and vintage style cars, aeroplanes, and helicopters. Browse the whole collection here.

Some words of encouragement to new moms in these unusual times: In the Chinese tradition, once a woman has given birth she enters “sitting the month”, zuo yue zi, where she stays indoors — visitor free — to focus on healing and caring for her newborn.The basic gist of this protocol is to protect mom and baby from pathogens and stress, while boosting their recovery and immunity. And so here we are today, all of us, sitting-in with no visitors. We are an odd mix of anxiety, stress, loneliness, boredom, hilarity, community, kindness, and togetherness.
Can you feel it? The sun is out and the weather is getting warmer. That means Spring is around the corner, and we’re excited to announce that we have some fantastic designer baby gifts to share with you.
Once again this year on Mother’s Day, the world will celebrate the charming and sweet side of this role. We, however, will toast to your strength. We applaud your sleep training, your patience with baby’s teething, and your ability to make decisions wisely and nurture on no sleep for the third night in a row.
Every year we pick a charity to support, where we feel that our donation can make an impact. This year we are thrilled to support Mamas For Mamas — a national charitable organization that supports mothers in crisis.
A happy mama makes a happy baby. Parenting certainly has its struggles but when basic needs can not be met, those struggles are tenfold. An organization like this is needed everywhere to help young families in need find surer footing into a safer, happier, future. We support their mission and work wholeheartedly, and are glad to have Bonjour Baby Baskets' mamas join their wider family of mamas on a mission.
With a bundle in the basket no one is expecting new parents to make new year’s resolutions. We thought, in these happy but confusing first months, we’d offer three reminders (not resolutions) to keep you doing YOU in 2019!
Just me and my baby out on a Saturday night...without the baby...yikes, right? Going out for the first time post baby, just the two of you, can be a tad overwhelming. On the one hand—woohoo you get to step out on the town in a burp-up-free top, a.k.a. ‘the dressed-up new-mom look’. On the other hand—will the baby be OK without you? Or more correctly, will you be OK without the baby?
Ah, the holidays. The glitz, the glamour, the parties, the stress… and the baby!
Pre-baby: elegant outfits, your honey by your side, colleagues, drinks, food, merriment, and finally some much needed R&R.
Post-baby: hormones, milk, fatigue like you’ve never known, and really, should you bother going to the Chrismukkah work bash? At Bonjour Baby Baskets we answer with a resounding YES!
