Buying Guide: stylish child-proofing for National Safety Month
With Halloween next month, you're probably already thinking about your kids' costumes. While the Halloween-costume connection makes sense, costume distributor Arkmipa Costumes thinks we should broaden our view. Why not costumes in January, or May or August? And it makes sense. How often does your kid pull pieces from your closet for a game of dress-up? This type of play fuels creativity and imagination, and the costumes from Arkmipa are outstanding anytime of year. Choose one of the Wrap-N-Ride styles from Australia or a snuggle sack-style costume for your infant. There are styles and sizes to fit everyone, including adults.
