Stuff We Like: Weather or Not


Oh, the weather outside is frightful, but our feet are so delightful! Keep your children's toes toasty warm this winter with a pair of these worthy boots that are both cute and functional, handpicked (or shall we say foot-picked?) by NYMetroParents editorial director Dawn Roode.  

Booty Love

These precious shearling Love Winter Bootiesfrom Elks & Angels (available in sizes 3-6, 6-9, and 9-15 months; $39) help regulate baby’s body temperature with soft sheepskin.  

Walking on Air
