A moment of mourning for a 2-year-old little girl who was fatally wounded by her 5-year-old brother. While children accidently shooting one another is a unfortunately a recurring story, this little boy wasn’t tinkering with his parents’ unattended firearm collection. Not in the least. This kid had a rifle of his very own, designed specifically for kids. Record scratch. More
In yet another adage about makeup aging a person (see Courtney Stodden for examples), a photo of “Barbie without makeup” is making the Internet rounds. And without her schlack of war paint, I dare say Barbie doesn’t look a day older than 17. Okay, maybe a hard partying 17. More
Karen Green Braithwaite of New York, NY is petitioning Mattel to offer party supplies featuring Barbies of color. Apparently, if a little girl wants to throw a Barbie-themed birthday party, she’d better be cool with her banners, tablecloths, plates, cups and napkins featuring blonde-haired, blue-eyed Barbie. Because that’s all they have. More
It started with the Monster High dolls. I remember seeing them in the toy aisle with their Bratz-style bobble-heads, short skirts, and fishnet stockings. I immediately didn’t like them and steered my daughter away, vaguely mumbling something about inappropriateness when she asked to look at them. Now, there’s a younger-skewed monster doll line called Vamplets, and it seems like I just can’t get away from these trendy little creeps. More
Let’s all take a second and pray to whomever you choose for the sanity of parents everywhere. We are about to be tested. But if we stand together and support one another, we might make it through the latest Furby toy launch with our minds in tact. More
For two months, toy stores have been updating their aisles with the newest 2013 offerings. They’re done with the “Hot Holiday Toys.” They know you’ve already bought all those. They want you to have new options for the new year. And one of the biggest new releases for 2013 toys has to be Barbie blocks, formally called Barbie Build n’ Style. More
Ugh, I keep forgetting I don’t have a uterus, so no baby for me, but this will be the gift I buy for all the people I know who have babies! I was perusing some of the offerings of the 2013 Toy Fair held recently in New York and although the plush testicles are another adorable option, and I so want the plush Breaking Bad dolls, the Mustachifier is hilarious and reasonable and would make an awesome new baby gift.

There are a whole lot of really awesome hi tech toys for little kids. This amazing dollhouse comes to mind pretty quickly. But there are also some serious tech fails when it comes to digifying the toy-making process. This newest offer from Mattel definitely counts as a fail. More
The holiday season has every parent considering the best toys to give their good little boys and girls. Lately, we’ve thought a lot about toys that look like weapons, and whether they’re the right choice for our kids. But no toy discussion is complete without a mention of gender balance. And in the increasingly gendered world of children’s toys, my family’s solution is simply to provide a wide range of girls’ and boys’ toys, then let my daughter choose what to play with. More
