9 Cool Things For Parents & Kids
Bear & Beau
Bear & Beau creates luxury home decor for children, featuring an exclusive range of hand-inked illustrations, premium wallpapers and lifestyle objects. Founded by award-winning creative director Corinne Caddy-Townshend, each illustration is created with bespoke bamboo pens in her home studio in south London. Accompanying each design, you’ll find quotes that provide an insight into the inspiration behind the artwork she develops for Bear & Beau. We really like the nature-inspired ‘Mini Beasts’ wallpaper, which is decorated with creepie crawlies. Perfect for a playroom.

HATCH
Flattering and adaptable, HATCH’s clothes are designed to look and feel great for expectant mothers on the go. The New York label’s collections are defined by chic, billowy silhouettes that will remain everyday favourites, even after the baby is born. Ariane Goldman launched HATCH with a goal of helping women look and feel their best during every stage of pregnancy and beyond. Of the lot, we love the ‘Alice' dress, which is cut from airy cotton-voile that's perfect for balmy days and has pressed pleats and a shirred back for a flexible fit. The best part? You'll still wear it long after your little one is born.

JetKids by Stokke
JetKids has created the first ride-on, carry-on, sleep-on suitcase, offering premium travel products to make both long-haul and short-haul journeys less stressful for the whole family. Combining Scandinavian style and aviation-inspired design, Stokke offers two different products. RideBox is a suitcase with ample storage. Once packed, your little one can ride it (or pull it) through the airport, train or ferry terminal for stress-free transportation. BedBox is exactly the same, but once the seat belt sign is off, transforms from a suitcase to an in-seat bed in five simple steps.

Little Tummy
Little Tummy is a new paediatrician-developed baby food brand. Meals are cold-pressure processed to ensure freshness and are delivered direct to your door. Developed by Dr Sophie Niedermaier-Patramani and backed by supermodel, philanthropist and proud mother of five Natalia Vodianova, this product is designed to support busy mums by providing an alternative to traditional, on-the-go baby food, which – whether organic or not – is generally older than the baby itself and cooked at high temperatures to make them shelf stable. Comparable to home cooking, Little Tummy meals include the likes of cauliflower and kale-filled ‘Brain Food’. Cooked up with your baby’s brain in mind, the ingredients help to develop learning, motor function and memory.
