Two Faves from ABC Kids Expo 2009

I can’t wait to show you all the cool things we shot video of at the expo. I promise, as soon as I’m done wading thru all the video tape I’ll start posting it. Til then, here are two of my faves from this year’s show. I’ll begin with Munchkin, the company known for making clever products for parents and kids. It’s getting set to realease a new Diaper Pail. It teamed up with Arm & Hammer Baking soda to create what it calls a “smell proof” pail. I haven’t had much luck in the diaper can department so I’m hoping this one “really” works.

imagesMy next fave comes from mom and dad inventors, Cyndi and Paul Pedrazzi of California. They’ve created the wonderfully hip and colorful Yubo lunchbox. I love them because they’re eco-friendly, bpa-free and dishwasher safe. Kids will love them because they can design, customize and swap out faceplates.

ABC Kids Expo 2009

abc_logoIf you’re a new mom than you know firsthand the baby products industry has gone gangbusters! But for moms like myself, who are past the newborn stage I was shocked. Last weekend I attended the All Baby Children (ABC) Expo at the Las Vegas Convention Center and couldn’t believe my eyes. We’re talking more than a million square feet of vendors showing off all things baby-related. We’re talking furniture, clothing, bedding, baby gear, etcetera. You name it – it was there!

Unfortunately, my two little (size 6) feet weren’t able to cover it all but I did my best. I even brought a videographer along with me. In the coming weeks I’ll give you a firsthand look at some of the newest and coolest products to hit the market. Some were really, really cool and others left me wondering “…what the hell were they thinking!?”
