New shop alert! πŸ‘•πŸ‘—πŸ«Ά

Today we stopped into in Wilmette to get Crunchkin's buddy a birthday gift, and couldn't have been happier we did!

Owner Stacy showed us around and advised us on some great gift ideas. Stacy is a local mom who has curated a mindful collection of kids' clothing (plus accessories and toys) based on what she wanted her own daughters to wear.

Most brands here are European or US-made. Plenty of organic options too!
