The ‘Boom Boom Room’ Makes its Way to NYC

April 8, 2010 by Jen Rabulan-Bertram

The Boom Boom Room, the luxe gifting suite for celebrity moms in Hollywood, made its way to NYC yesterday to showcase some of the most innovative baby and toddler gear. The Baby Issue highlighted over 45 baby & toddler products for media, bloggers and celebrities to take it all in.

The Baby Issue event was hosted by Jayneoni Moore, who made the lavish Baby & Toddler Boom Boom Room Gifting Suites the go-to spot for celebrity moms to check out the latest and greatest in gear. I was excited to attend the Baby Issue Event to learn and network with some of the brands that I already feature on The Next Kid Thing. There were several brands that I can’t wait to introduce to you as well. Here’s just a few of the brands that were at The Baby Issue Event Yesterday:

Stokke, Teutonia strollers, Umi Shoes, Shutterfly, Skip Hop, Fisher Price, Plum Organics, Scholastic, Mustela, Happy Heinys, Nourish, nursing clothing line Larrivo, Organic Kidz, Loved Baby, Goodnight Light, Aprica, Origany, Dapple, Organic Kidz, Mabel’s Labels, Zoli Baby

And in case you missed it, I posted a few more sneak peek pictures over on the NKT fanpage.

The Baby Issue event got me thinking, too… With all the events that I’ve been attending (which is good!), but have been falling WAY behind on updating posts (not so good), I almost overlooked The Next Kid Thing’s 1st birthday! Those that know me well, probably know that I’m not big on over the top parties for first birthdays, but I wanted to do something special to mark our big 1-year celebration next week. I have a few things lined up and will make an announcement to share with you tomorrow!

Myzos BFF bling

Remember your BFF necklaces—those too cool half-heart pendants that you’d give to your best friend for evah? Well, the styles might have more bling, but those charms, like great friendships, are timeless. I’m loving this cool friends forever bracelet from Myzos:

Etsy find: Buttered Toast

il_430xn62816427 Speaking of Sunday Best, I’ve been on the lookout for a fun, funky kiddie tie for Jack. Of course, Etsy always comes through. This time, I stumbled upon Jessica’s fun shop, Buttered Toast. She makes handmade, unique ties and bowties for the little guys. With all of her selections, you can choose between pre-tied tie, big boy tie and bowtie.
As hard it was to choose which tie to go with, this was my second choice tie. I love Michael Miller prints, especially these bold colors, making it perfect for a Spring outing. For you Anchorman fans, she even has a Ron Burgundy tie–you know, because your little guy is king of a big deal and all. Be sure to check out all of her fun patterns.

I just ordered mine, barely getting it in to ensure we get it before Easter. She does all the work herself, so be sure to contact her if you need yours by a certain time.
