Time-Out Missy
This adorable time-out animal will help your child transition through the rough two or three minutes of being in Time-Out. They have a bear, a lamb, a frog, and this adorable little puppy. If you're not a fan of time-outs you can also use these adorable little buddies for time-up (we didn't know what this was either), but it's setting the timer for activities such as cleaning up the playroom, etc. It could even be used in a school classroom for keeping track of when to switch centers at center time.

Spotlight: Cooking for Monkeys
The Trendy Mommy recently found this amazing website - Cooking for Monkeys. Pam Galenkamp, creator of Cooking for Monkeys dreams up & makes these simply fabulous toddler lunches! Visit Pam's site and soak up her great ideas and techniques to make your own very special lunches for your toddler.
HOW DID COOKING FOR MONKEYS BEGIN?Pam asked herself, "How do I get my toddler to eat different foods? How do I keep myself interested in making him new and exciting foods? Anyone who knows me, knows that I am a sucker for presentation. I love good food, but I love looking at pretty food almost as much. And I love nicely packaged pretty food most of all. When I saw these I could not resist."

Spotlight: Project Nursery
Recently we interviewed Pam Ginocchio & Melisa Fluhr, founders of Project Nursery, and they provided us with some fabulous tips to share with all you trendy mommies out there on the current decorating trends as well as some other nursery design tips. We'll share a few with you here on the blog - but you'll have to go to the actual interview on our site to see the rest and to see some of their fabulous room photographs!
1. Start small. Designing a nursery can be overwhelming. Start with a favorite piece of anything as your inspiration or jumping off point and design around it. Whether it be your ideal crib bedding or something as small and as simple as a meaningful piece of art.
2. Always add an area rug to finish the room even if the room has wall to wall carpet. Nothing is sweeter than a small, fluffy, white sheepskin rug for tummy time.
3. Complete the room with proper window treatments. While a little valance is cute, try window panels. It will add a bold design presence and make the room look and feel taller.
