Spring Collection 2015 Brittney Bubble Skirts - One Small Child

Our New Spring/Summer Collection 2015 Part 1: Brittney Bubble Skirts

We are so excited to begin our Spring/Summer Collection 2015 reveal! First up is a modern skirt and headwrap combo for babies and toddlers. The new Brittney Bubble Skirt is now available for purchase from One Small Child!

All About the Brittney…

One Small Child Spring Collection 2015 | Brittney Bubble Skirts

Snag a new Brittney Bubble Skirt in each color! Available in sizes 12 month -4T.  So adorable.

Why your little princess will love our new bubble skirts…

She’ll be able to move freely. Since the skirt ranges from baby to toddler sizes, we’ve taken into consideration the mobility needs of all stages in this size range. Your 12 month old will be able to crawl and teeter totter like normal. Your toddler will be able to hop-scotch as usual. A knee-length skirt is a happy compromise for mom and her little debutant.

Made from super soft taffeta. Remember when your mom dressed you all up in that frilly, fluffy dress with thousands of itchy layers? Remember trying to sit still in that loud, swishy material? We’re all about ‘looks amazing and feels great’, now. We love the bold, patterned material, but we made sure it was soft and comfy. Your little one will love wearing it as much as everyone loves seeing it on her!

She’ll be the envy of all her playmates. Bubble skirts are so cute! She’ll adore all the comments and compliments from her friends. She’ll feel like she’s playing dress up when you tie her hair in the matching headwrap! It gives such a modern statement, she’ll have all the pride and confidence in the world!

Why you’ll love them…

Life is easy with a simple slip-on skirt. An elastic back waistband makes for easy-on, easy-off dressing. That means it’s quick to dress your baby, and your big girl can easily dress herself! The perfect statement bow is already tied and securely attached to the front. No re-tying a sash every time it comes undone.

A durable fabric and design. Don’t be deceived by their soft, comfy feel. These bubble skirts are designed to hold their shape. They’ll keep just the right amount of pouf, all day long.

Classy color choices. Choose white for a modern look. Going for a vintage vibe? The ivory skirt is for you. Pink is always a classy, feminine choice for a pretty princess! Whichever color you prefer, coordinating accessories is a breeze.

Available in sizes 12-24months and 2T-4T. Admit it. You love dressing your little girls to match. We think it’s ridiculously cute ourselves! We’ve extended our standard sizes for the Brittney skirt. Now you can dress all your girls in the same adorable skirt. They’ll love being ‘twinners’, too.

Complete the look with our monogrammed bamboo camisole bodysuit and leather ballet moccasins.

Psst… check back tomorrow to see what else we have in store for you!

Baby's First Easter Ideas from  - One Small Child

Baby’s First Easter Ideas from One Small Child

Looking for some fun ways to celebrate with your little one this year? The crazy Easter egg hunts and egg-dying are still a ways down the road for your tiny tot. That doesn’t mean your snuggle bunny has to miss out on all the fun. Here are some baby-approved activities that will add delight to his first Easter holiday. Take a look at these creative baby’s first Easter ideas.

Baby's First Easter Ideas from One Small Child

For the littlest of littles:

Dress your precious little one up in a new dress or outfit. One of the funnest things to do with new young babies is dress them up! Aren’t holidays great excuses to put on something cute and fancy? Check out our adorable holiday outfits for boys and dresses for girls.

Put together an at-home photo shoot. You’ll want to remember all of baby’s firsts-including his first Easter holiday. There are so many props and poses you can use. Scatter Easter eggs, put baby in a large Easter basket, get a snapshot of her in a pretty tutu and bunny ears. Get creative! The possibilities are endless.

Do a fun Easter craft. Who doesn’t love baby foot and handprints? Drag out some paint and stamp baby’s little limbs on some thick paper or canvas. You can even decorate them to make Easter-related pictures.

Make Easter egg shakers. Little ones love rattles! Why not make a fun holiday shaker out of a plastic Easter egg and whatever you have in your cupboard? Rice, dried beans, and popcorn kernels make awesome noise makers. Just be sure to seal the egg well and test it before passing it off to your little guy.

For Mobile Babies:

Egg hunt in a kiddie pool. Fill a kiddie pool with Easter grass. (You can even make your own by shredding paper). Scatter plastic eggs inside and mix it all up. Baby will have so much fun crawling through the ‘grass’ looking for eggs. With a big enough pool, you could even invite his playmates over to join in the fun!

Egg scoop. Fill a large bowl with plastic eggs. Add a spoon that’s large enough to scoop the eggs well. Your little one will love emptying the bowl over and over again.

Have an Easter Egg bubble bath. Float some plastic eggs in the tub for a fun new bath time toy. To make it extra fun, add bubbles and extra rubber duckies!

Teach baby a fun Easter song. Remember your mom singing ‘Here Comes Peter Cottontail’ when you were a kid? Warm up your singing voice and belt it to your babe. It may be awkward for you, but she’ll love it!

Make egg popsicles. Fill a couple plastic eggs with a yummy puree for your little one. No need to be unhealthy. Baby food freezes just fine! We recommend using eggs with a small hole in the top for ease. Fill the egg using a syringe and top it off with a sucker stick. Your older kids will love these too!

Any other ideas? We’d love to hear how you celebrated baby’s first Easter.

Kids Easter Activities 2015

It’s always fun to try something new around the holidays. With a million kids Easter activities to choose from, we’re shooting for three new ones this year.

Kids Easter Activities | One Small Child

I love the idea of growing our own Easter grass. I know my kids would enjoy watering it every day and watching it grow. …And wouldn’t it be fun to decorate with? Here’s a great tutorial from How Does She?.

Easter Kids Activities 2015 | Cascarones from mom.me

These cascarones look like so much fun! I know I’d be in for a mess, but the kids would have a blast making and breaking them. Mom.me has a great picture tutorial on how to make these.

Kids Easter Activities | One Small Child

I really enjoy doing fun service activities as a family. I think it’s important to incorporate service into our family time. Especially around holidays. I love the idea of ‘egg’ing someone for Easter! I’ve seen several variations of this: scatter treat-filled eggs in their yard and leave the sign on their door; leave a basket of candy-filled eggs; or my favorite-put together a simple plate of home-made Easter treats and do the ring and run. This activity offers extra family time since we’ll make the treats together. Family Ever After has a cute “You’ve Been Egged” free printable.
