We love the new Mamas & Papas Lotty Playmat!  It is super soft and comfortable for your baby and there is so much to keep them entertained and occupied.  Lotty has music and lights and interactive stuff galore.

Lotty has 20 toys and activities for babies and includes eight melodies and fun phrases.  Your little one can roll into their tummy and explore as Lotty has to offer! Lotty has detachable dangling Garden party friends that are bright and colorful and will your encourage your baby to reach, grab and kick!  Babies can also press the sensor keys on Lotty’s shell to activate music and fun phrases help to build hand-eye coordination.  Lotty is also great for tummy time which babies need to help strengthen neck and chest muscles.  Some of our favorite features of Lotty include her crinkling trees, a pull and vibrate flower and a baby safe mirror. Lotty come with batteries included and can easily be turned off and one by pressing her antennae.

With lots of playmats on the market to choose from, we love Lotty because she has so much to do and has such a unique style!  Check her out!

Mamas & Papas Sola Stroller

We are thrilled here at StrollerMama to be one of a few exclusive Mamas & Papas authorized dealers in the U.S.  Mamas & Papas is one of the leading brands and retail stores in the UK.  They are a family business, just like us, that looked at what parents needed and made wonderfully stylish solutions for them.  Our first Mamas & Papas stroller was the Urbo and we just received the Sola. 

The Urbo is a sleek, reversible seat stroller with clean lines, a shiny frame and a distinct European look.  It is great for parents that want a stroller with a reversible seat but don’t need a bassinet.  The Sola is similar to the Urbo but morea bit more affordable.  It also has a reversible seat and is suitable from birth with a flat recline.  It can also take an optional Graco or Maxi Cosi adapter bar.  We carry the Urbo in Black and the Sola in Black and Flora which is a combination of purple and florals.  We actually received our first shipment of Solas to the store yesterday and while a family was looking at other strollers during the truck delivery, we then set up the Sola, they put their beautiful eight week old daughter inside and shortly thereafter, walked out the door with the first Sola to navigate the streets of Cleveland!  They were sold and so are we! 

We are so excited about carrying the Mamas & Papas brand.  I will blog about their other wonderful products that we carry soon and check them out on our website!

Graco Snugride 30 in Metropolis

For quite sometime, the Graco Snugride infant seat has been one of our best sellers here at StrollerMama.  At the recent ABC show in Fort Worth, we decided it was time to add another Graco Snugride model to our store.  We decided on the Graco Snugride 30 in the specialty pattern - Metropolis.  The Snugride 30 joins the other models we carry (Snugride 22 and Snugride 35) to give parents another choice.  One thing we love about the Snugride 30 is that it has a lower starting weight of 4 lbs. so it is perfect for premies or parents expecting twins.  We love the Metropolis pattern – it is a sophisticated and understated combination of grays, silver and black.  Another thing to note about the Snugride infant seats for any parents out there looking to use one with the 2011 BOB Duallie – the yet-to-be-released 2011 Duallie adapter bar will only work with the Graco Snugride 22 and Graco Snugride 30 models (not the Snugride 32 or 35).  So, the new Snugride 30  is a great option for parents looking at the BOB Duallie! The Graco Snugride 30 is available now at StrollerMama!

Orbit Color PacksBlack Orbit Color Pack

You already love your Orbit Baby Stroller but sometimes you long for some color other than your black, mocha or ruby, right?  Well, the folks at Orbit Baby have come out with a terrific new accessory for the G2 that easily adds a splash of color to your stroller.  The new Orbit Color Packs will be available soon and will sell for $120.  When we stopped by the Orbit Booth in Texas we thought the canopies looked like a pack of skittles (in a good way!)  I am always a fan of fun colors for strollers and having add-on accessory color packs is a great way for parents to add color to their stroller.  I think this is especially great for parents with girls who want a more feminine look for their Orbit.  It is also a great way to completely change the look of your stroller without investing in a new stroller – just get a new color pack and you have a whole new look!  I actually chuckled to myself when I saw them on display because it reminded me of how I have multiple bumpers for my iPhone (pink, green, black, etc.) depending on the mood I am in. I am guessing I am not the only mom out there that feels the same way I do!  We are excited for their arrival!

Evening in Innsbruck

Ergo Baby Organic Petunia Pickle Bottom Limited Edition

We stopped by to see our friends at the Ergo Baby booth to see what was new and we are so happy to see the three very limited edition organic

carriers patterned by Petunia Pickle Bottom.  Many of you know that Petunia Pickle Bottom does some very stylish diaper bags and they decided to partner up with Ergo and do a few limited edition carriers with their fabrics.  The fabrics are organic and the style is the original carrier.  They will be available in three fashions: Heavenly Holland, Evening in Innsbruck and Peaceful Portifino.  I love all three patterns and would have a very hard time choosing which one is my favorite.  The limited edition carriers should be available early summer and will be $159.99.  Check the website soon for preorder information!
