It’s hard to believe already a month has passed since the New York International Gift Fair! We’re happy to say things have been very busy as we are also in production now with a line of new products! We had a great show meeting many new stores. Modern bright solid hues are on the trend now with fashion and our products are the perfect accessory! Our Matthew Langille Collection lunch totes were also shown at the Best New Baby and Child Product Display!

Who says packing a lunch can’t be fun? We had a great time shopping for interesting tasty treats for the whole family! Your snacks and lunch will look even better in a Stöh lunch tote!

5% of our profits from sales of our Bandits will be donated to the Center for Biological Diversity where they work to secure a future for all species, great and small, hovering on the brink of extinction, as they believe that the welfare of human beings is deeply linked to nature. We hope that our children, their children and so on will grow up in a world with the animals that we know and love today. For more information, please visit:  www.biologicaldiversity.org

K.I.D.S. brings hope and self-esteem to more than 4.5 million children and their families each year by providing new clothes, shoes, toys, furniture, books and juvenile products donated by manufacturers and retailers. The donations are distributed through a network of nearly 1,000 local community social service agencies in the U.S. and abroad. Their efforts reach children who are challenged by poverty, homelessness, domestic abuse, low literacy, military family service, major illness, incarcerated family members and disaster survival. Milkdot is a proud donor of our products to K.I.D.S.

ABC Kids Expo | Sept 23-26, 2011 | Louisville, Kentucky
As our first time at the ABC Kids Expo, and after exhibiting at ENK Children’s Club in NY, we weren’t quite sure what to expect, especially with the new location in Louisville, which could be considered a less enticing destination than Vegas where the ABC Kids Expo has previously been held. Being in the Modern Kids section, we were in a great location near companies like Skip Hop, Boon, Oxo, Bugaboo and Bloom. All in all, we were impressed by the number of booths and especially with the ones that modeled a retail boutique store. We definitely felt like a small fish in a big pond but we were definitely a small fish that stood out!
