RESTOCKED and COMING SOON

Earlier this week, I introduced you to some of the NEW items we are stocking at Tiny TreeHugger. Next I would like to fill you in on some of your favorite products that have been recently RESTOCKED...and even some items that are COMING SOON!

Where to begin? Let's start with these gorgeous Infintymom 3 in 1 scarves. Your favorite colors are back in stock - grey, mustard and plum chevron. The feather print was in stock too - but it disappeared pretty quickly! This is one of our items that's great for any woman - you don't need to be nursing - or even a Mom - to enjoy the fashion of an infinity scarf!

And guess what? Back in stock are TreeHugger Cloth Pads [as seen on Dragon's Den in January!]. These are available in Bamboo or Stain-resistant Minky and you can choose from pantyliners, light flow day pads, heavy flow day pads and overnight/post-pardum pads. Psst...you can save when you buy multiples too!

And I don't know about you...but I drool over Tulas all the time! And your babe probably does too! So what better way to drool-proof yours than with our Tula Droolas. These are still somewhat new to our shop, but we have also restocked them with more patterns.

And while we're on the subject of Tulas...we are constantly ordering more of the newest designs to bring you as many options as possible! On the way SOON [or maybe they even have arrived by the time this post gets published!] is the much sought-after Anchors pattern. Just a hint when it comes to Tulas - if you see one that you want, don't wait too long to snatch it up! We never know when certain patterns will become unavailable/discontinued. We don't want you to be disappointed, so when you see one that calls out to you - GET IT!

And also COMING SOON to online ordering [available only IN STORE right now] - a new line of skin care! Anointment is the new kid on our block. I don't know about you, but I'm curious to see what this stuff is like & try it!

Which product is YOUR favorite from the ones listed?

NEW items to TTH

Well, peeps - Pam is doing it again. Adding even more wonderful NEW products to our TTH shop. I wanted to give a quick re-cap on the newest items so you're sure to not miss anything!

For a few weeks now, we've been stocking Acorn and Leaf bandana bibs - and let me tell you, these are moving quickly! We have a wide variety of patterns to choose from, and they are available in singles or ready-made packages of 3. These make a great gift - or a simple and fashionable addition to your own child's outfit! More arriving this week!

And you are probably all familiar with our selection of Colibri bags - either in snack & sandwich bags (including the wide snack bag!) or the different kinds of wet bags: regular, double duty or X-Large. But what you may not have known is that Colibri now has a pocket wet bag. Made in the same size as the snack bags, these little beauties are lined with PUL and are perfect for cloth pads, nursing pads or anything else wet & small! And as a side note: Check out this new Dahlia pattern. You can see some of the other new patterns (including elephants, frogs, trucks, cats and more!) in the snack & sandwich bags!

Next: Can I get a show of hands - who's currently pregnant? What about not only pregnant, but nearing the end of the pregnancy and still wanting to squeeze into your regular winter jacket? Well, we've got you covered because we now carry the Make my Belly Fit Jacket Extenders! Us Manitobans especially know how important a good quality winter jacket is where we live. So when you're pregnant and need a little extra room for just a few months - why go out and purchase an entirely new jacket when you can use your regular one? Great for winter baby wearing as well!

And okay - have I mentioned before how envious I am of all of you baby-wearing mamas out there? See, when I had my girls (9 and 11 years ago!!), babywearing wasn't really much of a thing, so I totally missed out on that experience. Now I just live vicariously through you (and by wearing the #tthfakebaby in the shop, of course!). But come on...can you say delicious? We now carry Wrapsody wraps - including the Wrapsody Hybrid Stretch Wrap, the Wrapsody Breeze Gauze Wrap, and the Wrapsody DuO Water Wrap!

That's just a little peek at what we have in store for you next time you come and visit. Stay tuned for another post to see what's been RESTOCKED and what's COMING SOON!!

Fall Faves: Part I

 With the change of seasons, we are saying good-bye to sunscreen, mosquito spray & sunhats...BUT that doesn't mean we still don't have products to meet your fall needs!

By now you're probably already aware of the adorable Pookie Toquie that we sell at the shop, right? Totally adorable. And really effective at keeping your little one warm in the cold months that are coming up right around the corner.

Well, we are happy to say that we have increased our Pook collection for your shopping pleasure!









First of all, now it's not just your toddler that can have the luxury of such a multi-functioning hat! Now the rest of the family can too! Yes, it's true! We have them in a bigger size now that fits from age 4 and up! The same reversible feature, the same multi-functioning...the same Pook, just bigger!





And your head won't be the only thing cozy and warm this fall/winter. We are also pleased to introduce Pook Dukes to our store. Available in 3 sizes - Baby Dukes [with no thumb holes to worry about!], Junior Dukes & Adult Pook Dukes - grab a pair for everyone in the family!

 

And finally...calling all Jets hockey fans...we have Hockey Sockeys available in kids & adults sizes. You don't want to miss out on getting one of these bad-boys!


So what are you waiting for? Head on over to Tiny TreeHugger (online or visit us in-store!) to get yours!

New to TTH: Spring Edition Part II

Yesterday we posted about some new products in our shop that are perfect for the spring/summer season and promised that more was yet to come! So without making you wait any longer...

Let's see a show of hands...who is ready for picnics in the warm sunshine? Of course these next two items are also useful for everyday school/work lunches, but I can't get warm weather out of my head so that's how I'm imagining them being put to use!

There has been a lot of buzz about these SmashBox Collapsible Lunchboxes which are perfect for on-the-go outings. If you are using them for indoor uses, they can go from freezer to microwave - but how perfect are they for picnic lunches? These boxes are collapsible which is great for storage, and they even come with a reusable "spork". What more do you need?



You have all heard me rant and rave about the Snack & Sandwich bags that we carry...but did you know we now have a third size to offer you? Colibri (formerly known as The Sling Sisters) came out with the Wide Snack Bag to add to the collection. These are perfect for packing wraps, or to hold utensils for your lunch. Of course they can be used for non-food-related things as well, such as a toothbrush and toothpaste or make-up accessories.

[You can find other Litterless Lunch options here...]

And how many of you are counting down till your first beach day?? Of course you all know about both the AMP and AppleCheeks swim diapers that we stock - but we now carry a third option...you know, just to make your decision that much tougher! Introducing the Bummis Swimmi, available in 3 different sizes and 5 fun prints. Your babe is sure to be the talk of the waterfront with their stylish bottom!


Bummis didn't stop there with their swim line, though. We have carried their sun hats for awhile already, but new to their line are these co-ordinating UV tees and tankinis! With a UPF rating of 50 and specially woven fabric to offer natural protection, these are some beach attire items you can really get on board with!




So there you have it! Yet another amazing selection of BRAND NEW products that you can find at Tiny TreeHugger.

**And don't forget that not only can you order online [as always]...BUT we are now open Tuesdays 10am-6pm and Wednesdays-Saturday 10am-3pm [CLOSED Sundays & Mondays] at our new storefront in Winnipeg! Find us at 230-600 St. Anne's Road in the Seine River Professional Building on the second floor.**

New to TTH: Spring Edition Part I

I think it's safe to say that we are all waiting on the edge of our seats for spring to arrive - you know, weather-wise, not just calendar-wise. It's been a long haul this winter [at least for us Manitobans!], and we deserve a quick change of seasons to reward us for what we've had to go through the past several months.

So while we're getting ready to dust off our ballet flats, lawn chairs and BBQ's, what about adding to your spring repertoire with some of Tiny TreeHugger's newest products?

That's right...we have MORE new goodies available to you. Pam just doesn't stop with bringing in new and exciting products to meet the needs of our valuable customers. And a lot of them have come in great timing since they can be put to great use in spring and summer!

First up are two new Boba accessories that are a must-have for the in-between seasons. If you're wearing your baby/toddler on a walk to the park but just need an extra bit of cozy warmth - why not choose to snuggle in together with either the Boba Hoodie or the Boba Vest.  Complete with comfortable material, convenient pockets and other features, these are fabulous to have on hand. We have been cooped up far too much this winter - get ready to break out as soon as possible!

[And don't forget about the new Boba 4G too!]

What about when you get hungry or thirsty while out with your kiddos? We've got you covered! We now sell GORP bars in our shop - endurance bars made in Manitoba full of locally grown ingredients. Perfect for when you're on the go and need a filling yet healthy snack!

And nothing beats a cold drink of water on a hot summer's day [okay, well maybe a Pepsi slurpee...]. When you reach for that water bottle to quench your thirst, why not make it an Eco Vessel water bottle, available in two sizes and several colors. Whether you're at the gym, the park or the beach, these babies will keep your water cold for many hours. The "Boulder" Insulated Bottle is able to hold up to 750ml and will keep your water cold for 36 hours (!!!). It will also retain heat for up to 12 hours, if you want to use it for soups or hot beverages. If you like loose tea, then this is the bees knees for you - it has a remover tea strainer! Or an ice dam for those who like their drinks chilled with ice. And of course we have a smaller version, the "Frost" Insulated Kid's Bottle (400ml) for the kiddos, including an easy-sip straw.

Believe it or not - that's not all we have new in the shop! Stay tuned for Part II coming soon...!!

**And don't forget that not only can you order online [as always]...BUT we are now open Tuesday 10am-6pm and Wednesday-Saturday 10am-3pm [CLOSED Sundays & Mondays] at our new storefront in Winnipeg! Find us at 230-600 St. Anne's Road in the Seine River Professional Building on the second floor.**

NEW to TTH: Accessory Edition

At TTH, we're not content to just stay with "the usual" when it comes to our stock. New products become available and we receive feedback from our customers on what they'd like to see us carry. We're okay with stepping outside of our box to bring the people what they want! This edition of  what's new to TTH is all about accessories.

The first accessory is one of the more, uh...personal nature. A new trend in the area of women's personal care is The Lunette Cup. This is one of the products you suggested...and we delivered! Save money in the long run AND help the environment by no longer throwing away pads and tampons. Another win-win in the world of living green. Not only do we stock the cups, but also the Lunette Feelbetter Liquid Wash and the Lunette Cupwipes. We're a one-stop shop for this area of personal care - and don't forget about our Knickernappies Menstrual Pads for those who prefer going that route.

Now moving on to some accessories that you won't want to keep hidden...oh man, have you checked out these beauties yet? These are knotted statement necklaces that will provide your teething babe with something safe to chew on while still being a gorgeous accessory for you! Who says being a mom has to be drab? Not us! [Side note: These are great even if you don't have a nursing wee one. In fact, Andi picked one up for herself earlier this summer and she is W-A-Y past the nursing stage!]

You can also go from drab to FAB with one of these beautiful Zolowear Pleated Breathable Mesh Slings. Perfect for any season, the 100% polyester mesh dries quickly and is very breathable. Available in Midnight Eclipse and Summer Solstice, these have become a sought-after carrier for many moms and their sweet babe. Comfort for baby and style for mama? Talk about a win-win!! It is a must for your winter vacation or for heading to the pool.

Advocacy bracelets are now in our TTH shop as well! Choose from 3 different phrases (Keep Calm and Use Cloth, Breastfeeding is Bestfeeding and I Love Cloth Diapers) and wear your mantras on your arm!

We haven't forgotten about the kidlets; they need fun accessories too! That's why we now carry the Pookie Toquie - perfect for those cooler fall temperatures. Available in pink and red, these hats are not only super sweet - but versatile! Get this...The unique design can be worn in countless styles, including The Executive, the Donald Trump Comb-Over, and the Princess Leia. Wondering how? Check out the YouTube video for the how-to...and for a good giggle!

Check out these items - and many more - on our website, or set up a time to drop by our shop to see these items in person. There's something for everyone!

NEW and RESTOCKED: sleeping & teething

Ahhh...sleeping & teething. Two things that can cause the biggest headaches for Mamas with little ones. Well, we're here to help in both of those areas!


Tiny TreeHugger is happy to reveal some brand-new products that we now offer in our shop, beginning with Lulujo Baby Swaddle Blankets.  Their dual-layer muslin is finely woven from 100% cotton and come in a large size (48"x48") which allow for multiple uses. Use these blankets for swaddling, nursing, as a crib blanket or even a portable crib sheet! The light-weight material also helps your baby from becoming over-heated.





While we're on the subject of sleeping, check out the ErgoPouch Natural and Organic Sleeping Bag which we now carry.
The natural fibres [bamboo and organic cotton] absorb and wick away moisture, keeping baby warm but not sweaty. Stretch inserts in the top and side panels allow freedom of movement and reduce the risk of entanglement, while a two-way zipper gives easy access for diaper changes. Easy to use, easy to wash, and great for sensitive skin, these sleeping bags should go on your wish list!

As for the teething aspect -  well, we've got you covered there too! Not only do we of course regularly stock various sizes and colors of amber and hazelwood, but we also recently got a brand new stock of these adorable must-have jChews teethers! 100% BPA free silicone teethers that babies really want to sink their teeth into! Choose from the milk-chocolate chocolate bar or one of the bright, funky colors of either the skateboard or the smart phone.

And last - but certainly not least - is a restocked item that is a good aid for both sleeping AND teething. Yes, I'm talking about the oh-so-popular Wubbanub Pacifiers! We are stocked up with all sorts of friendly animals just waiting to become your baby's friend. My [Andi's] personal fave is the giraffe, but you should really check out the variety of other options too - they're all so cute!

Any of these items would be great for your own little ones OR they also make great gift ideas! Head on over to our website to get more information on these and many other products that we carry.

New & Restocked October 20th 2012

What is new and restocked this week? See below!

Rockin' Green - Funk Rock - [restocked]
Do you have the funk? Stinkies? Ammonia problems? Diapers that make your eyes water? Dealing with the dreaded toddler pee? You need funk rock, guaranteed to knock out your ammonia problems in 30 minutes or less (or your pizza’s free!) This 100% natural compound is unlike anything you have tried before. It targets funk at the source and leaves no prisoners. Just 4 tablespoons is enough to de-funk up to 20 diapers in one sitting.

Rockin' Green Laundry Detergent - [restocked]
Are you sick and tired of battling with stinky diapers? Then Rockin' Green should be on your cloth diaper playlist! It comes in 3 rockin' formulas and tons of sweet fragrances, which is music to anyones ears.

[NEW] to Tiny TreeHugger - water test strips. The terms “hard water” and “soft water” refer to the concentration of ions in water. Very hard water can wreak havoc in a household, and washing cloth diapers in hard water is often a challenge. Some detergents are specially formulated to deal with hard or soft water. Rockin’ Green’s Hard Rock or Soft Rock, for example, can make life (or at least laundry) much easier. Click this link to read how fast your water can be tested.

Boba 3G in Dusk [restocked] - [all other prints and colours already in stock too!]
The new Boba Carrier 3G is designed for babies and toddlers alike with its incredible features not seen on other soft structured baby carriers. Available in 4 beautiful patterns and 3 stunning solid color combinations, the Boba Carrier 3G is the perfect option for any baby wearing family!
~and this week I am lending my dear friend our Boba 3G so she can give it a test drive with her 5 day old!

BobaAir [pictured on the left] - [restocked]
BobaAir is the lightest, sportiest baby carrier out there and we hope that this first-of-its-kind addition to your baby carrier collection will make that freedom together you have with your family even more effortless (and help spread the benefits of babywearing, too). This innovative new baby carrier is a real game-changer for active families!
~Just today we walked to the local restaurant for dinner with Gramma! And SHE wore babyK [15 months & 20ish pounds] there for the first time ever.

Did you know that we also stock Boba Teething Pads?

They’re completely safe for babies who want to chew everything in sight – particularly your Boba Carrier. 

Have a fabulous weekend!!
