From bathtime to mealtime and every time in between, Boon has an innovative product to meet the needs of parents and kids alike. The team over at Boon constantly strives to design user-friendly, problem-solving, aesthetically-pleasing gear and gadgets that make parenting more fun and at least a little bit easier. In the bathroom, we’ve tried out the multi-functional Frog Pod for keeping toys organized in the bath and are fan of the sleek design of the Potty Bench - though we wish it came with a fool-proof no-more-diapers guarantee. We also like the modern sentiment in color and style of their new layette items - onesies, footed pajamas, rompers and two-piece sets that come in such patterns as DNA, Pacifier and Squircle. But it has to the be kitchen where Boon has impressed us the most. Their feeding products truly live up to their motto - innovation for modern parents - and blend simple, clean designs with “why-hasn’t-someone-thought-of-this-before” originality. The Flair Elite high chair offers a pneumatic lift device to ensure that your little one is always at the perfect height while the Squirt is an ingenious product that allows for one-handed infant feeding and easy food-on-the-go.
Once they’re off the mush, we’re fans of the Catch Bowl and Benders utensils for slightly more advanced eaters. And food is just so much more fun with the Groovy interlocking plate and bowl set, the Snack Ball or the unique shape of Fluid. Add to these innovative products a super-friendly staff and incredible work ethic (10% of Boon’s profits are donated to charity) and you’ve got a company you just can’t go wrong with. Find all of Boon’s products at one of our bookmarked retailers - Pokkadots.com.

If you’re new to Etsy, start off slowly by perhaps checking out some kid-friendly products like this Wooden Fire Engine Puzzle or the Doodle Caddy, but consider yourself warned: Etsy is addicting. Search by category or color for unique finds, unusual gifts and one-of-a-kind pieces to beautify your life. Tags: Etsy, Favorite Things, PPB Pick of the WeekRelated posts |
eamlessly with the modern decor of their home and now have a collection of six pieces that combine exceptional construction with sleek, contemporary exteriors . We’re especially fans of the 
Owner, VP and Director of Brand Development Korie Conant recently picked up the two pieces shown here for the arrival of her new son. “I admire their no frills approach to design,” says Korie. “My husband and I live in a small space and it was important to me that our ‘baby furniture’ fit in with the aesthetic of the rest of our house. Modern furniture traditionally is known for being hard and cold in their look and feel, but Ralph and his team were able to find the happy medium. Clean lines mixed with comfort and coziness.”
