Fab Finds from the Fab Four!

Beatles baby and kids tees will assure your little rock n' roller will never be embarrassed when you pull out the baby photo albums! Rowdy Sprout's comfy Beatles lounge wear is perfect for catching up on some golden slumbers, while Jannuzzi has some rockin' t shirts for future yellow submarine captains. No matter what crazy adventures you're getting into, remember that all you need is love... and maybe one or two of our rockin' Beatles tees!

Thanks a lot, dad!

Ohhhh, poor Sean! Even puppies hate their leashes! Goes to show you that even the hippest parents can fall victim to poor fashion choices when it comes to their kids!

Irish For a Day - the Psychobaby Way!

St. Patrick's Day baby and kids' gifts are a hit with lil' leprechauns! Legend goes that wearing green makes you invisible to leprechauns... who will sneak up and give you a pinch if they see you. Yikes! Don't take any chances, Psychobabies, we've got plenty o' tees to keep you safe this St. Patrick's Day. Whether you're on a quest for the gold at the end of the rainbow or just kickin' back with some green beer milk, we've got the gear to make your St. Paddy's Day sham-ROCK!

Need some great St. Patrick's Day ideas for the kiddos? Well it's your lucky day cause our Psychobaby team rounded up some great crafts, recipes and even some crazy cool nail art to get everyone in the spirit! See all of our finds on Psychobaby's  St. Patty's Day Pinterest Board.

For our local friends, the Chicago St. Patrick's Day celebration kicks off with the annual dyeing of the river at 10 on March 16th, followed by the parade at noon. See you there (we will DEFINITELY be wearing green)!

Catchers, Pitchers, and Psychobabies...

Sports gifts for kids score big - like grand slam in the bottom of the ninth to win the game, big! Baseball is back y'all, and when baseball returns spring and summer can't be far behind. (Join us in a collective "Woooooo-Hooooooo!") Pitchers and catchers are reporting for duty, so it's time to get your Psychobaby geared up for the season ahead! Games can be chilly in those first few weeks, so a baseball blanket is a must. And when those ballpark hotdogs get a little out of hand your Psychobaby will want a bib to catch all of those spills. Since the season hasn't started yet every team is tied for first place - and every team's colors can be personalized in the Psychobaby Custom Shop! Do you think this is the year the Cubs will take it all the way??? Yeah...maybe not... Hey, we can dream! Anything is possible when it's still Spring Training!

Need one more reason to love baseball? Peep this multitasking mom, Tiffany Goodwin, showing us how to catch a foul ball with style!

Mr. Messy, Meet Lil' Miss Manners...

Personalized gifts for kids will introduce your Psychobabies in style! Whether your name is Mr. Messy, Pretty Princess, Slim Shady, or just a regular ol' kid name, it belongs on a cool Hello My Name Is... custom design! These personalized gifts are for kids, so we spruced 'em up with bold colors instead of boring ol' name tag red. We suggest one shirt for your kiddo and one for your Psychobaby's alter-ego a la David Bowie/Ziggy Stardust or Beyoncé/Sasha Fierce. It's okay if your kid's alter-ego is more Mr. Horrible, and less Mr. Adorable - your secret is safe with us!

Caught by the Fuzz!

Mustache clothing for baby and kids is the best way to get caught by the fuzz! Jump on the facial fuzz bandwagon and take your kiddo from clean-shaven cool to handlebar hip with the addition of a cool t-shirt or bib. Don't stop there! We have hats, flip-flops, frames - the list goes on and on, much like a lengthy 'stache.

Speaking of lengthy 'staches, the current world record for the longest mustache belongs to Ram Singh Chauhan of India, with facial fuzz measuring 14 feet! One of Ram's grooming tips for growing a super-long mustache is to start early, so you better get on it, Psychobabies!

Unrelated to mustaches, remember the great 90's track from Supergrass, Caught by the Fuzz? Such a classic British sound from that era. Peep the vid below while you are shopping our 'stache of fuzzy goodies!

Appaman: Spring Style with Street Cred!

Appaman baby and kids' clothes have hit our shelves for spring! The Spring 2013 collection is so awesome - think lots of bright colors, ombre dip-dyed looks, and rad hats to bring that street cred and make your kiddo the coolest on the block. All the fashion trends that are hip for adults shrunken down to Psychobaby size - we love it! In addition to the hippest clothing, this collection brings...wait for it...SWIMWEAR!!! That can only mean warm weather is near, right? Put away that Appaman Puffy Coat and tie on a sundress - spring is here! (Well, almost.)

Rock-n-Roll Tee Headliners: Dylan, Zeppelin, Journey and More!

 

Rowdy Sprout always brings the hits, and the latest spring styles are no exception! Every time we receive a new batch of these kids rock-n-roll concert t-shirts we always pretend we are selling merch for an amazing tour. Headlining this time around: Bob Dylan, Led Zeppelin, and Journey are on the north stage, and The Beatles, the Grateful Dead, and Johnny Cash (with a guest appearance by Debbie Harry from Blondie) are rockin' out on the south stage. IF ONLY!!! See what we mean about pretending you are at the concert of a lifetime? For kiddos who are too young to have experienced the awesome live music of the 60's and 70's Rowdy Sprout tees are the next best thing!

And of course you don't have to take our word for it - check out these celeb tots rocking the Rowdy Sprout this past weekend (via The Daily Mail):

 Abel, Amy Poehler and Will Arnett's kid, knows how to wear a Yellow Submarine t-shirt with style! (Who says redheads can't wear red?!) We can only assume piggyback riding son Archie is wearing a tee that is just as cool.

And Denise Richards' daughters Sam and baby Eloise rock the Blondie tank with every rockstar's favorite accessory - ice cream!

Dance & Sing with Little Miss Ann this Friday!

Little Miss Ann, her guitar, and her fun, folky sound are headed to the Psychobaby brick & mortar this Friday, February 8! Join us at 10:30am and bring your dancin' shoes for a morning of fun! A talented musician on the local Chicago scene, Little Miss Ann will have us wiggling and giggling along to her awesome songs about how wonderful it is to be a kid.

The latest one-pieces and bibs from Jannuzzi have lil' ladies raising their pinkies with their bottles (as only the most proper baby etiquette dictates).

Wear some babyproof bling on your top and you'll be sure to impress at your next Park Avenue playdate!

Inspiration for a Rockin' Baby Shower!

Every great baby shower needs a theme, and we can’t think of a better one than good ol’ rock-n-roll! From rock and roll baby gifts to tips for the shindig itself, we’ve got picks to make your party rock. Rockers never stress (they are totally chiiiiilllll) so adopt the same ‘tude and grab a worry-free gift that is sure to please. Give our Personalized I am a Rockstar Gift Set or our Guitar Playing Baby One-Piece a try at your next rockin’ shower and your friends will be demanding an encore - as in they’ll want you to gift them with one too!

The best part of every baby shower has got to be sitting around watching the mama-to-be unwrap and endless stream of gifts, right? NO! Ugh. We've all been to showers that are a snooze, so if you are throwing a fete, step it up and celebrate with an afternoon that will rival a Stones backstage party circa '72! (Hey, just 'cuz mom can't drink doesn't mean the guests have to suffer, right?)

A few ideas for baby shower games that won't get you booed off stage:

• Compile a photo collage and match the baby photo to the rockstar for an easy game that guests can participate in while they wait. (Who doesn't love looking at baby pictures? Especially ones of adorable rockstars?!)

• For a twist on the “Don’t Say That!” steal the necklace game, print out VIP backstage passes for each guest. If anyone gets caught saying "baby" their pass gets taken, and the guest with the most passes at the end of the party wins a prize.

• Serve random food and drink and match the rocker with their backstage rider request (rumor has it Aerosmith demands corn on the cob, fresh, cooked for 3 minutes only, and Iggy Pop needs broccoli....???)

• A backstage baby bottle chug always gets any party started! (But you didn't hear that from us!)

Check out our Baby Shower Gifts and Party Ideas on Pinterest for even more inspiration. From rock-n-roll cakes to ticket stub diaper raffle tickets, it's time to get this party started!

Spend $50, Get $10. Appaman Presale Starts Now!

Appaman kids' clothing is en route back to the Psychobaby shelves - the presale starts NOW! 

Look no further for the coolest colors and hippest styles, Appaman is bringing street cred to every kid on the block with their stylin' 2013 Spring collection. From wind breakers and board shorts to floppy hats and dip-dyed dresses, it's out with the Appaman Puffy coat, in with the breezy warm-weather styles!

Yes, we know it's still cold mostly everywhere (our Chicago staff just might be wearing their coats inside the office today!), and yes we know winter is far from over. However chilly, we also know there's no better way to put a little spring in your step than shopping for hip duds for your kiddo. Just looking at swimsuits makes us feel a little less freezing and a little more beachy. As if styling your Psychobaby's seaside wardrobe wasn't enticing enough, we've sweetened the deal by offering $10 in Psychobaby Crazy Cash for every $50 you spend on an Appaman Spring 2013 purchase! Fifty bucks gets your kiddo some new swag, and gives you the chance to save some moolah on a subsequent purchase. Snag a personalized placemat, put it toward your next baby shower gift, or stock up on more Appaman - the choice is yours! Appaman Spring 2013 will be in-stock and ship on, or before, February 18, so stock up on street cred and get to shoppin'!

Parents, you can enjoy a relaxing drink or two; the Beat Kitchen's bar will be open and serving. Grab tickets to Winter Fest at the Beat Kitchen and get ready to rock out on Sunday!

Game Day Swag Scores Big!

Sports gifts, football one-pieces, touchdown tees, HUT HUT HUT! It's time to watch Balitmore and San Francisco battle it out on the gridiron. Get those lil’ weenies in the crock pot and gear up your Psychobaby for the big game on February 3! You’ve got just under two weeks to plan what your littlest fan will be wearing for the Super Bowl. Your Psychobaby doesn't have a choice of who to root for (at least until they are 3 or so), but you have tons of choices when it comes to cool sports clothes for your football lovin’ kid. We can whip up a personalized t-shirt in Raven's purple, 49er's red, or any team color - perfect even if your favorites didn’t make it to the big Bowl!

Beyoncé is performing during halftime at Super Bowl 47 so you know little Blue Ivy will be rocking her cool baby style to watch mama- maybe in a cute Football Belly One-Piece??? Get on it, B!

How are you celebrating the big game? Hopefully it involves something from the chilli or cheese food group - maybe both, if you’re lucky! Check out our Super Bowl Party ideas on Pinterest for more game day goodies!

Coming to a Kid's Room Near You...

Personalized picture frames for kids are the latest addition to the Psychobaby Custom Shop! We are crazy excited about these frames and can't wait to add more styles in the weeks to come (psst...sports frames are on deck!). Tired of all the babyish decor, we thought we would make a little something for Psychobabies who would rather deck out their rooms in monsters, superheros, and cupcakes instead of ducks and bunnies (why are there so many pastel room accessories with ducks and bunnies??!). These sturdy wood frames will showcase a 4x6 photo of your cool kiddo in style! We know you always say your Psychobaby should be in pictures, so what are you waiting for? Get to snappin' those photos...or just print out this adorable pic of Paul and baby Mary taken by Linda McCartney and pop it in one of our frames. Awwwwww!
