Baby It's Cold Outside

Okay, well it may not be cold just yet ... but it IS getting there. The first week of fall is upon us and we've got just the thing - fleece/blanket sleepers for boys in size 18 months and 2T. They never seem to stay under the covers at night. Footed sleepers help keep their little bodies warm on those chilly nights. Check them out here!

We're at it again! Adding new items that is. So we thought we would spotlight the darling Gymboree socks we just got in. There are several pairs of brand new girls socks in several different colors: mint green, lilac, white with flowers and fruit patterns just to name a few. Check them out here!

If you haven't stopped in to see what's in store lately, come on by! We'd be delighted to assist you!

The newest thing isn't always the BEST thing! DVD vs. VHS

Several years ago when DVD's hit the scene, I started to worry that my huge collection of children's videos on VHS would soon be obsolete. So, just like many parents out there I'm sure, I decided to sell off all my videos at a huge loss at garage sales and such thinking no one is going to want these when then can buy DVDs - the newest and supposedly BEST thing.

Well, as a mom of four with two children under 5, I have come to realization that I goofed! I used VHS videos for years with my two older sons. They could easily operate the VCR and I don't believe I ever had a VHS tape damaged by them. However, after purchasing numerous DVDs in last several years and entrusting them (foolishly) to my daughter to playon the tv in her room - many turned up scratched, snapped in half and otherwise totally unusable.

Obviously, I have come to the conclusion that for preschool aged children, VHS tapes are the way to go. And, with other families selling off their children's videos for steal, VCRs for sale in retail chains for $20 or so, you can't go wrong. No need to worry about scratched and ruined dvd's...and you'll save tons of cash entertaining your child.

For those of you who have DVD players in your family car, I say...stick with the dvd's in the car and play the videos at home. DVD's will take up less space in your car and won't be warped by the heat. VHS tapes can easily be stored with you children's books and cost just pennies on the dollar compared to the DVDs.

We've added a number of children's video son VHS, from Pooh and other Disney Favorites to Dr. Seuss to Pokemon to Pandas! Some of them are still sealed in original packaging. For new babies, we even feature Baby Einstein Videos. Feel free to check out our Playtime section to browse through the newest additions.

Thanks for stoppin' by!

Reading with your children - Gently Used Books

Most of you already know BabyOutfitter is a great source for quality gently used children's clothing at afforable prices. But, did you know that we also offer gently used Children's books as well? We feel very strongly about reading to/with younger children. The benefits of spending one on one time with your children, learning and sharing about the stories is absolutely one of the best gifts you can give your children. Books are expensive - especially the trendy ones.

We have made it our mission as of late to pursue a greater selection of stories, characters and themes in our book department. We have focused on toddler tough carboard books for the younger kids and some wonderfully illustrated story books for the older ones.

Yesterday we posted over 25 gently used children's storybooks in amazing condition. You can check them out here www.babyoutfitter.com/index.php?cPath=36. We've priced them affordably - most of them are between $1.99-$3.49. Those are incredible savings over cover / retail prices.

With hectic schedules and dual income families, mom's are busy these days. Many of our books are shorter in length but still offer the same opportunity to share a book with your little cuddlebug. Give them a hug and read to them today!
