Express Yourself
www.babywit.com

Nothing says cool like a pint-sized band tee. Whether your little tyke is a Classic Rocker or an Indie Baby, Babywit.com offers some of the hippest tees around. Founded by a SAHM who refused to dress her daughter in bland t-shirts covered in cute rainbows or bears, she launched the Baby Wit line and has been providing serious style for babies and toddlers ever since.

There are so many great styles to choose from, with the largest selection of comic tees on the net, Baby Wit is a one-stop shop for authentic rock attire. Some of our favorites include the classic Jimi Hendrix Electric Baby toddler tee and the popular Deathcab for Cutie black onesie. Be sure to check out their entire Rockin’ Baby collection for one-of-a-kind items like Sonic Youth t-shirts and Willie Nelson onesies.

If you think these band tees are fantastic, you’ll love the rest of their collection. Their Politico Baby section offers a wide range of hilarious designs for parents and tots with a sense of humor. Be sure to check out their Favorites section for some unique and uber-stylish ensembles. We also love that Babywit.com uses sweatshop free materials made here in the U.S. by American Apparel, making you feel just about as good buying these tees as your baby will feel wearing them.

Dads and Diapers Rock
www.diaperdude.com

More and more, dads are taking the driver seat when it comes to caring for their babies. The idea of a Stay-at-home-dad is now commonplace and retailers have eagerly responded to this parenting gender flux. With entire lines dedicated to Mr. Moms, the look of baby gear has taken a definite shift toward cool.

One of my favorite Dad-centric brands is the Diaper Dude line of super-hip diaper bags. Specializing in street ready, messenger style diaper bags, any dad will look and feel great wearing one. Perhaps our favorite style in the Diaper Dude line, and definitely fit for the Rockstar Daddy type, is the Guitar Diaper Bag. Strap this awesome bag on dad, and let him rock out to the tune of Diaper Duty (and us moms will agree, that idea totally rocks!)

Just Dinkin’ Around

If you’ve picked up an Us Weekly or People magazine lately, you may already be familiar with the fresh look of Inky Dink Tees. After seeing Maddox, Angelina Jolie’s son, in the adorable Human Cannon Ball tee, I had to find out who made it. Lucky for me (and now you), I found Inky Dink Tees and was pleased to see they have an extensive line of these irresistible tees.

If your little girl has a penchant for rockin’ gear but still wants her clothes to be a bit girly, she will flip for their Child of Rock’n Roll long sleeve tee. Little boys will love the simple “coolness” evoked from their Mod Drummin’ short sleeve tee, and even the little ones can rock these designs that are all the rage. My favorites include the baby blue, R.O.C.K onesie for baby boys and the Rockin’ the House 24/7 onesie in pink for little girls.

*Inky Dink offers free shipping on all orders over $50.00 and if you order 2 tees, you get 1 FREE! How cool is that?

Poster Child
www.rattle-n-roll.com

We agree with the creators of Rattle-N-Roll that all kids are born Rock Stars and that the greatest show on earth is their future. That’s why we’re crazy about their gig posters and announcements which illustrate your little one’s show in true Rock Star fashion.

Family and friends will be blown away by these awesome announcements; it’s the perfect way to introduce your cool kid to the world. These concert poster inspired announcements also make great birthday invites. Each order is specially designed for your child: you choose from several hip designs, pick your colors, send in your favorite picture of your little rocker, and voila! Rock’n Roll magic. Frame the poster in your child’s nursery and their bedroom will be rockin’ too.

Rock On!
www.babyrockapparel.com

When I had my son, I was in search for something a little more cutting edge, a little less baby blue with ribbons. The creators of Baby Rock Apparel shared in my dilemma and created a line of clothing that caters to the Rock ‘N Roll lifestyle of babies and toddlers.

“When we had our son, we were frustrated in our search to find hip baby clothing so we decided to develop our own line,” said Kimberly Strayer, co-founder of Baby Rock Apparel. The delightful tees and onesies featured in their line could not be more hip, and the catchy sayings that adorn several of the items will have you laughing aloud. One of our favorites from the line is the No. 1 Rocker t-shirt, available in a onesie style for infants too.

Baby Rock Apparel continues to add fresh new designs to their onesie and t-shirt lines. As they continue to expand their brand, Baby Rock Apparel now offers music in the form of CDs (Full Metal Diaper) and an incredible line of footwear for both babies and toddlers. This growing company also believes in making more than just a fashion statement, donating a portion of its profits to the Pediatric Cancer Foundation of Tampa, FL each quarter.
