What’s New on Gugu: March 6, 2019

by Abby Ludwig Leave a Comment

We’re back with another What’s New on Gugu! This week we’re sharing some items that are brand new to the market and others are oldies but goodies that you may not know about. For loads of our other favorites, please check out our Explore page!   

Preggo Pickles: After trying this product at a baby show this past weekend, I was blown away! Not only are they delicious but they will truly satisfy that pickle craving that haunts many moms during pregnancy. Their unique flavors have also been created to support pregnant/new mom challenges (i.e. nausea and nursing). As an added bonus, they are extremely low in sodium when compared to other pickles on the market. So pregnant mamas crunch away!

bblüv Foöd and Döse: While National Snack Month may have ended (bye February!) we are still loving these new food storage containers from bblüv. Perfect for meals on the go, Foöd (coming soon!) is leak and odor proof and will keep your food warm (or cold) with it’s insulated walls. Plus the top can be used as a shallow bowl (with built in spoon!). Paired with the Döse stackable snack container, you will be set for on-the-go eating!

Magnetic Me Clothing: While these are not new to the market, the Magnetic Me Footies are always on my list of must-haves for new parents. The magnetic closure on these newborn essentials will be a game changer for those early days. The fabrics are so soft (I love the eco-friendly modal) and the patterns are adorable!

Toofeze: You’ve all been there (or will be soon!). Your little one is in pain from teething and nothing seems to be helping. Until Toofeze! A teether made of food-grade silicone and stainless steel, your baby will instantly be drawn to the cool relief.  When the stainless disc finally does warm up, simply stick it into a glass of cool (or ice) water and it will instantly chill. This will quickly become one of baby’s favorite toys.

Solly Baby Spring Collection: Another oldie but goodie, we often recommend the Solly Wrap to our users as a must-have for the fourth trimester. Not only do they have exceptional wrap carriers, but we also love the swaddle blankets and layette sets. Their new Spring collection is few of beautiful colors, and even a few patterns all great for Mom or Dad!

The world of baby/toddler gear is always being inundated with new, cool items! Our job at Gugu Guru is to help you sort through the ‘fluff’ and figure out what items will be a great pick for your lifestyle and taste. Each week I will be sharing some items that we at Gugu Guru think should be at the top of your list to check out. Some of these items are brand new to the market and others are oldies but goodies that you may not know about. For loads of our other favorites, please check out our Explore page!

crewcuts x Gunner & Lux: A brand new collaboration has hit the market between J.Crew’s, crewcuts, and Gunner & Lux. This father-daughter team, known mainly for their quirky and fun children’s jewelry has developed a line exclusively for J.Crew. We are loving all of the pieces, which arrived just in time for Spring Break! Check out their adorable products before this limited edition collection sells out!

Go Happy Kids Travel Tray: Created by a mom who saw a void in the market, this tray is the perfect addition for any on-the-go family. The no-skid bottom and food grade silicone top make his travel tray your new germ-free go to on the plane! This is an excellent way to keep your kiddos’ entertainment and snacks contained during travel.

Ready, Set, Food!: As a mom of kids with food allergies, I am always on the lookout for new products to help combat this growing trend. Allergist-developed, these daily packets are mixed with breastmilk, formula, or food to help reduce the risk of developing a common food allergy by up to 80%. Plus, their non-GMO and organic ingredients (only milk, egg, and peanut) are introduced based on research from clinical trials and pediatric nutrition guidelines.

Monica + Andy First Foods Nurture Box: We absolutely adore these boxes (see more here!) by Monica + Andy! The gift boxes all include a variety of mix and match pieces that can be customized to meet your needs. These make a perfect baby gift for anyone on your list and come at a number of price points. It’s a perfect way to jumpstart your layette! Sidenote- we can’t stop salivating over this adorable avocado toast pattern!

Lorena Canals New Collections: One of Gugu Guru’s favorite decor lines, Lorena Canals has launched three new collections. Tribute to Cotton, Lobster, and English Gardens are all loaded with new design pieces, perfect for any nursery! Their washable rugs and fun storage baskets continue to keep every bedroom (or playroom) stylish and organized!

Evenflo Balance + Wide Glass Baby Bottles : Created with Pediatric feeding specialists, the new glass bottle by Evenflo is a great option for eco-friendly parents! They have truly thought of everything, using shock-resistant tempered glass and a uniquely shaped nipple leading to a perfect latch. We also love the venting system, which will ensure that your little one doesn’t suck up any extra air. A great new glass feeding option!

Fusion Gates: Finally a stylish and artistic solution to the need for safety gates! The contemporary look of Fusion Gates can be further personalized to your taste with their interchangeable art screens. They truly become an art piece in your home! We also love that they can be installed with pressure mount or hardware options.Edushape Tub Sub: As a former Early Childhood and Kindergarten teacher, I love to find toys that help my kids learn while having a blast. Edushape hits the nail on the head with all of their products, which have been created to get kids to think. Their new Tub Sub will help your little one learn all about buoyancy during bath time. Plus, it’s easy to clean, which as any seasoned parent will tell you is a MUST for bath toys!

Freshly Picked Mom Clothing: A beloved moccasin company finally launched a line for Mom this Fall! Full of fun and adorable sneakers, clothing, and purses, they offer classic items in high quality fabrics. We also love the option to ‘match your little’ with coordinating t-shirts and bags!

Wash. It. Later. Bags: Perfect for on-the-go parents, Wash. It. Later. bags are the solution to life’s messiest moments with baby. Leak-proof, liquid safe bags will both hold the messy items and begin to soak them in a cleaning solution (free of harsh chemicals and all-natural) until you get to the washing machine. Great for travel and an excellent option for your gym bag messes as well!

The world of baby/toddler gear is always introducing cool new baby items! Our job at Gugu Guru is to help you sort through all the ‘fluff’ and figure out what items could be a great pick for your lifestyle and taste. Each week we will be sharing some items that we’ve recently added to Gugu Guru. Some of these items are brand new to the market and others are oldies but goodies that you may not know about. For loads of our other favorites, please check out our Explore page!

Loulou Lollipop: With their spring line on the horizon (launches later this month), one of our go-to companies for teethers and pacifier clips can help with bed and bathtime too! Known for its high quality products, Loulou Lollipop’s bath towels will extend long past baby’s first year and their crib sheet patterns are to die for!

Silver Cross Coast Stroller: Finally making its way to the US, the Silver Cross Coast, their lightest convertible stroller, easily converts from a single to a double stroller as your family grows (or for multiples!) The bassinet is included with your purchase, and is approved for overnight sleep (along with their new, awesome bassinet stand). This stroller is also compatible with a number of infant car seats making it an easy-to-use travel system.

Miniware: Eco-friendly and stylish tableware for baby is a reality! We love the look of Miniware’s dish sets, which will help baby learn how to feed him/herself. Plus, most of the dishes are convertible in some way, meaning they will continue to grow with your kids as they age. As an added bonus, Miniware’s products are all dishwasher safe, which is great for any on-the-go parent!

TLC Squared Through The Years Collection: As a new parent, you always have the greatest ambitions to write everything down- first tooth, first steps, first words, but in reality there just aren’t enough hours in the day to get this task accomplished! TLC Squared’s Through the Years Collection has you covered! Breaking down exciting childhood memories one event at a time, these gorgeous and easy to fill out books are a great way to capture these special days for your kiddo.

Rambler: Created by a mom with a problem to solve, Rambler is an easy-to-use pop open soft play mat. Unlike anything on the market, the Rambler is truly easy to take on the go for active families who don’t have time to deal with laying out a blanket on a windy day. Great for daily tummy time, a picnic in the park and beyond, Rambler will grow with your family long past those baby years!

For loads of our other favorites, please check out our Explore page, which is constantly being updated.

Nomi Highchair: After seeing this highchair for the first time at the Chicago Baby Show last August, we were blown away by how innovative and modern it is. The seat is completely customizable and will truly grow with your child (holds up to 330 lbs.) We also love that the Nomi has taken a family-centered approach to meal time for baby and beyond!

Gabri Isle Outerwear: The weather has been downright brutal in parts of the US this winter. We are constantly trying to find cold-weather solutions to both keep baby warm and get some needed fresh air. We love the Mini Loke Thermo Suit (available in ‘Deep Navy’ and ‘Dusty Purple’) as a multi-season solution to the elements. We think this suit is especially great for urban families who need to keep their little ones warm as they walk throughout the city.

Skip Hop Playview Expandable Enclosure: Featuring six adorable cloud mesh panels, the Skip Hop enclosure is a perfect safe space to put baby down when you need to give your arms (or back) a break. Easily customizable, you can choose to use as a freestanding play space or against the wall (mounts included) as a room divider. Plus, there is a clip on activity surface to grow with your little one.

Press Pause Project: Press Pause Project products are formulated with Cannabidiol (commonly known as CBD), which is a non-psychoactive cannabinoid found in the cannabis or marijuana plant. Press Pause Project uses CBD in the line to help alleviate problems many new parents face; stress, anxiety, depression, pain, etc. Specifically geared towards women, they have formulated 100% organic creams, oils, and capsules that will help new moms and old moms alike! Plus, as they continue to grow, they are invested in giving back to women-based organizations.

Cozy Caterpillar Crib Mattress Protector: When it comes to gifts for new parents, and often overlooked gift is a study and safe mattress protector – and we’re big fans of the Cozy Caterpillar Mattress Protector! The Cozy Caterpillar Crib Mattress Protector was designed by parents who tried every crib mattress protector out there and were disappointed with them all. The Cozy Caterpillar Mattress Protector is unique in that it uses the highest quality bamboo velour, which means it is softer and more plush than any others on the market. Let’s face it, babies are going to pee and drool in their crib, but having a secure, safe, and comfy mattress protector is key –  the waterproof backing on The Cozy Caterpillar ensures no leaks get through and onto the mattress.

With the busiest travel season coming right around the bend of the year, we wanted to share some of our top travel picks for you, mama – these are must have items to make your travel experience as a mom just a little easier and in style, too. Check out our top picks for travel gifts for moms, these make fantastic baby shower gifts for any new mom who loves to travel! Check below for exclusive Gugu Guru discounts, as well!

Enter, the Sofia Fima Handbags, which help you effortlessly go from office to off-duty. Created by moms for moms, this handbag is your ultimate utility bag, which also happens to be made of gorgeous leather – ideal for work, mom-life, and of course, traveling!

What makes Sofia Fima bags completely unique and ideal for travel are their one-of-a-kind organizers; these organizers, are made exactly for your different life needs, work, mom-life, and a mix-of-both – and easily snap in and out of the Main Squeeze Tote, making it easy to shift gears in your life in a cinch!

Teat & Cosset: When it comes to travel style for breastfeeding moms, we’ve found the ultimate must-have clothing item for any nursing mama. Is there anything more necessary for travel than a comfy sweatshirt? The Teat & Cosset Gemma Sweatshirt has everything you need for a perfect travel style accessory; made from 100% cotton, the sweatshirt features natural fibers which are gentle and safe on baby’s delicate skin. But, the coolest part of these stylish sweatshirts are their two hidden zippers which provide discrete, easy, and fast breastfeeding access anywhere including buses, trains, planes, and boats!

Marama Naturals Calendula Spray: When you’re traveling with baby, it seems as though everything is always sticky, sweaty, dirty, or prime time for dry-skin! We have the the perfect travel companion for both baby and mama – the multi-purpose Calming Calendula Spray from Marama Naturals.  Calendula is touted for its anti-inflammatory properties, ability to improve and hydrate skin, and for speeding healing. It restores and cleanses. Marama Naturals has made calendula even easier to use with this convenient spray, which you can throw into your diaper bag. Combined with other therapeutic oils, this powerful, but gentle, spray is perfect to cleanse baby’s diaper area, and keep baby feeling clean in a natural way. If you’re traveling, this is a must-have item for both mom and baby; you can spray directly on the baby’s diaper area, or even use a baby cloth or wipe to apply the comforting liquid. Need hydration or a facial toner? This is great for that, too! You can even skip the baby’s drying bath and use the spray as a quick baby wash. If you’re on the road sans bath, it doubles as a no-rinse wash for baby, and keeps your skin feeling hydrated and clean, as well. Plus, who doesn’t need an extra reason to de-stress? The natural ingredients with soothing qualities of Calendula help to de-stress and reduce redness in your skin, so if you’re stuck in the car with many miles to go, simply spray this convenient bottle from Marama Naturals and feel at ease, clean, and refreshed!

Cold-Fix For Children: While traveling can be a true joy and a lovely experience, doesn’t it always seem like someone picks up some sort of sickness while traveling? We’re big fans of Cold-Fix for Children – formulated to help relieve cold and flu symptoms. Cold-Fix was brought to the U.S. by Dr. Shahram Jacobs, a father of 3, after nearly 20 years of popularity and success in Europe and Asia. It is a physician-formulated and doctor-approved remedy that helps to temporarily relieve cold and flu symptoms (congestion, cough and fever) and works to strengthen the immune system to help prevent sickness in the first place! It’s safe for kids six months and older and is a non-drowsy, homeopathic formula free of artificial dyes, gluten, and sugar. Plus, it has no reported side effects or interactions with other medications. Cold-Fix for Children is the choice for parents who are ready to help their children make it through cold and flu season – happy and healthy! For anyone who loves to travel – this is a great gift they can take with them to help their little one feel his/her best on every adventure! Use code cfguguguru for 25% of your order (expires 1/1/2019). 

ToteSavvy: The key to being able to travel with a baby is organization – so, how does one stay so organized with a baby in tow? ToteSavvy! The ToteSavvy Deluxe transforms your regular totes into an organized masterpiece, chock full of spaces, pockets, and more to hold everything you need in exactly the right place. We love that the ToteSavvy Deluxe works with all of your totes from pre-baby life, so you can still use them, even when they’re full of diapers and bottles! Having everything organized will keep you feeling less stressed on your flight or travels, and everything is super easily accessible as well. ToteSavvy Deluxe holds unique features no other bag organizer has including a laptop sleeve, zip-top insulated cooler pocket, and rose gold hardware. We love that the ToteSavvy has eleven total multi use pockets, so if you’re traveling with baby, traveling solo, heading to the gym, work, or for fun – there is a pocket for everything you need, and you can switch your ToteSavvy from one tote to another without any muss or fuss! Use code GUGU for 20% off your order. 

LugBug Handle: If you’re traveling with a baby, it can get very heavy, very fast carrying the carseat with the baby around from place to place. We came across the LugBug Handle years ago and it is still one of our very favorite must-haves for traveling parents.  Baby carriers can be tough on the arms – so tough that daily lugging can put parents at rick of strain-related injuries, chronic pain, and even accidental drops. In fact, nearly half of parents experience shoulder, back, and neck pain due to the strain of lugging a baby carrier. The LugBug handle is a helpful device which attaches to you baby carrier and offers a range of better, more comfortable (and enjoyable) carrying positions that support your arm and wrist. The creator of LugBug, a first time dad, set out to design a sturdy and easy-to-use handle designed to keep parents comfortable and kids safe. The handle’s innovative and ergonomic design reduces tension on the shoulders and arms for a more comfortable lugging position. If you’re out and about with a baby carrier, the LugBug is a must have necessity for your family!

Unbuckle Me: One of the most frustrating parts of travel is getting the kids in and out of the car seat – but, we found a way to ease up the whole production of the carseat drama with the new Unbuckle Me. UnbuckleMe is the award winning solution for anyone who struggles with car seat buckles! So, how does the Unbuckle Me work? It easily slips around the buckle and uses leverage to make it 50% easier to unbuckle. Does not attach to the car seat & works on ANY car seat buckle. The Unbuckle Me was invented by a Grandma with arthritis (who is also an Occupational Therapist) and her daughter (a mom of 2 toddlers!). UnbuckleMe is intended to be used under adult supervision, which means it should remain out of reach of children while the vehicle is in motion. It is recommended that you store in a convenient location that is easily accessible, like the side door pocket of your car. UnbuckleMe includes a small loop on the “neck” that can be used to attach it to a convenient location, such as a key chain or diaper bag. This would make a perfect stocking stuffer or new mom gift – keep one in every car and make travel just a little easier on yourself! Head to their website and use code ‘guru’ for 15% off. 

Travel Tray: When it comes to traveling with kids, it seems like there is always a toddler in the backseat asking for a snack! How can you solve this snacky problem? With Travel Tray! Travel Tray extends your current cup holder to hold your cup PLUS a tray to hold food or toys. Travel Tray fits into car seats, strollers, outdoor chairs; anywhere a standard cup holder is utilized! Made in the USA, easy to clean with a wipe and dishwasher friendly! Travel Tray are made in the USA, easy to clean with a wipe and dishwasher friendly, making it easier on parents. Plus, the Travel Tray is BPA, PHT, and PVC-free so it’s safe for your little snacker in the backseat. You won’t want to leave home without your Travel Tray, perfect for all trips, whether just down the block or across the country. Use code GURU for 20% off and free shipping on any order through 12/31/18. 

Earth Mama Mini Deodorant 4-Pack: It’s no surprise we are huge fans of Earth Mama, their products are ideal for pregnant moms, post-partum, breastfeeding and beyond. So, when it comes to travel, no one should be without their Earth Mama Mini Deodorants! Four flavors in one box! Earth Mama’s mini deodorants are travel-savvy and squee-cute. Pop one in your purse, the diaper bag, your gym bag or keep one in your travel bag – they are the perfect size for road trips or flights! You get all four flavors in one fun-filled box! Refreshing ginger-lime Ginger Fresh Deodorant, tangerine-y Bright Citrus Deodorant, unscented Non-Scents Deodorant, and fresh, soothing Calming Lavender Deodorant. Think you’re too sensitive for deodorants with baking soda? You got another thing comin’! This formula was made for extra sensitive skin with the perfect balance of baking soda and magnesium. Just enough to work, not enough to hurt.

Thank you to Sofia Fima, Teat & Cosset, Unbuckle Me, LugBug, Earth Mama, Cold Fix, Travel Tray, Marama Naturals, and ToteSavvy for making this sponsored post possible!

Dadchelor Party : Domino’s

by Gugu Guru Leave a Comment

New dads need a chance to celebrate the baby too! Dadchelor parties – sometimes called diaper parties – are becoming increasingly popular and Domino’s makes them even more fun.

Order in some Domino’s Pizza and make it a night with dad’s friends; we rounded up some dadchelor and dad-life must have items below.

ABBY & FINN Diapers: If you’re throwing a Diaper Party for dad, ABBY&FINN is the ultra-flexible diaper subscription company with a give back model that is a great gift for a dadchelor send-off. The brand’s hypoallergenic, affordable, high quality diapers are available through its easy-to-use online platform, and the company donates a Diaper-a-Day for every subscription purchased.

Mom Life Must Haves: Every new dad needs a shirt to show off his new status! We’re huge fans of these Love This Dad Live shirt and Dad Fuel insulated mug from Mom Life Must Haves.

Spring Gift Guide

by Gugu Guru Leave a Comment

With Springtime just around the corner comes an influx of baby showers, first birthdays, and special events for babies and mamas – we rounded up some of our favorite gift items for Springtime celebrations – although, we admit, we would totally buy these for ourselves, too!

Tiny Tags: When it comes to gifts for moms, whether for Mother’s Day or for a baby shower, personalized is always the way to go! We are huge fans of Tiny Tags jewelry, as it is not only gorgeous, but totally customizable. Pick your style, gold or silver, and then figure out what names, dates, or meaningful sayings you want engraved on your piece. Whether it is the date you first laid eyes on your partner or child, or all of your children’s names, or the time your baby was born, Tiny Tags turns memories into heirloom jewelry pieces. Their bar necklace (which our editor in chief Olivia has and loves) is a classic piece and goes with your everyday mom-uniform and looks chic enough for date night. They’ve recently introduced a script necklace as well, which is gorgeous and makes the perfect gift for your best mom friend, babysitter, sister, or yourself! Read more about how much we love Tiny Tags here.

Baby Merlin’s Magic Sleepsuit: What’s the best gift you can think of giving a new parent? Sleep, of course! And, if you can’t give the gift of sleep, the next best gift is a Baby Merlin’s Magic Sleepsuit! Transitioning from being swaddled to not being swaddled can be difficult on some baby’s sleep; Baby Merlin’s Magic Sleepsuit gives baby a warm, cozy, and comforting feeling to help them fall asleep faster, and stay asleep, too! The Magic Sleepsuit is designed for babies who are ready to transition from the swaddle, yet still need that cozy and contained feeling to aid in their sleep. Made with soft, comforting materials, the Magic Sleepsuit will give your baby the sense of security and warmth they need to sleep well through the night. Plus, it’s ideal for any time of the year because baby won’t get overheated – even if you’re looking to transition baby from the swaddle in summertime, it still works, as it features open feet and hands to help keep baby at a comfortable temperature. Coming in three adorable colors, the Baby Merlin’s Magic Sleepsuit is our one must have item for any baby registry – you can learn more about it in this handy video, too!

Ubbi Bath Toys and Bath Toy Draining Bin: If you’re looking for a fun Springtime gift idea for a toddler or first birthday, we’re huge fans of Ubbi’s assortment of bath toys and toy draining bin. Ubbi has a variety of toys to choose from for bath-time play, and what we love about all of their toys is that they are PVC, BPA and Phthalate free, plus you can even wash them in your regular dishwasher! No need to be afraid of moldy toys any longer, as you can open these toys up and wash them in the dishwasher. With all of these wonderfully fun bath toys, you’re going to need a place to store them! The Bath Toy Draining Bin allows you to conveniently contain bath toy clutter. Simply scoop the toys out of the tub using the whimsical handles, and place the bin on its base. The large holes in the bin allow for fast drying, and the base collects excess water that can be poured out later. Easy to use and wash, this drying bin makes bath time clean up a breeze. You can read more about Ubbi’s bath toys here, too.

pediped: Springtime means new Spring Styles and shoes for your little one. When it comes to baby and toddler shoes, we always turn to pediped!  pediped footwear has been awarded the American Podiatric Medical Association Seal of Acceptance for the promotion of healthy foot development, and orthopedic medical professionals deem pediped shoes an excellent choice for parents who want their children’s feet to develop naturally and healthily. We’re excited to introduce you to the Norm Nautical Originals and Jake Pink Originals for Spring. The Norm Nautical Originals feature a microfiber leather upper, breathable leather lining, and all leather soft-sole with slip resistant diamond tread. These dressy shoes have a velcro closure and can be used for play, parties, or school. The Jake Pink Originals are bright colored for Springtime, and feature an all leather soft-sole with slip resistant diamond tread for running around or simply learning to toddle around. These casual style sneakers are ideal for summer adventures and backyard fun.

Purple Rose Bows: There’s simply nothing cuter than a baby girl or little girl with a bow in their hair, right? But, when a new season, such as Spring, rolls around, it’s high time for a new set of bows! We’re totally in love with Purple Rose Bows, which is a subscription of 3 handmade bows delivered to your door monthly. Isn’t that the best idea? No need to browse through tons of bows, or shlep the baby to a store; simply choose whether you want your bows on a nylon elastic headband or alligator clip, next Purple Rose Bows designs and hand makes 3 unique bows, and then just wait for your purple package to arrive right around the end of each month. We love that Purple Rose Bows was founded by two sisters, and as they say, “We think that every baby girl needs adorable bows, and we want to make it easier to keep them looking cute and charming all year long. We created Purple Rose Bows so your little rosebud is perfectly styled for every occasion!” You can subscribe to Purple Rose Bows here, and check them out on Facebook and Instagram. PS. Special deal for Gugu Guru followers, use code SPRING5 for $5 off your first month of bows! 

ErgoPouch Layers Sleepwear: We love gifting soft pajamas for new moms or as a first birthday gift – and what better time of year than Springtime to change up your pajama game! We’re huge fans of ErgoPouch and the ErgoPouch Layers Sleepwear is not only adorable but will help your little one sleep comfortably. This luxurious sleepwear is made with organic cotton for breathability and are Tog rated for warmth.  They can be mixed and matched underneath the ergoPouch range of swaddles, sleep bags and sleepsuit bags for year round comfort.

Lactation Link Complete Breastfeeding Online Video 3-Course Bundle: If you’re looking for an amazing gift for the minimalist mama, or a mom new to breastfeeding, we’re super excited to tell you about Lactation Link! Lactation Link offers online breastfeeding classes to moms; their complete 3-course bundle features videos on Breastfeeding Basics, Breastfeeding Hurdles and How-To’s, and Pumping and Storing Breastmilk. These courses will show you exactly what you need to get started breastfeeding and manage common problems, including learning how you can pump and store your breastmilk for planned or unplanned time away from baby. When you purchase the bundle, you get lifetime access to the videos as well as to a special Facebook group to chat about breastfeeding – this is such a great gift idea for a new mom – it may be hard to leave the house with a new baby while learning to breastfeed, and this bundle will help instill confidence all from the comfort of their own home!
