For us, photo shoots can be tough. Not only do we need to worry about getting a great picture, we need to make sure our little ones are up for the challenge which means they cannot be hungry, tired, teething, dirty or generally uncooperative. With six kids between us, let me tell you - we've seen it all. And it certainly doesn't always go as planned. This is our very first sample that I

It was a big week for Playpants as we headed down south for our Hollywood close-up! We mentioned earlier this month that we received an exclusive invite to take part in celeb event planner Jayneoni Moore's Pre-Oscar Studio alongside other baby and kids brands for what would be the ultimate Oscar weekend playdate - and it was. It was a whirlwind weekend of making friends, making contacts and

It was a dreary day, cold and wet, with my two children in the back of the car, when I got the phone call. Answering my handsfree phone call from Anna while trying to jam a pacifier into Hazel's mouth and answer Violet's questions about what we're having for lunch because she has informed me 18 times that "mommy, I have an insatiable appetite." At first I take the high pitched squeal on the

Well it has been quite a busy winter for the Playpants team since our successful Create Change fundraiser in December. After raising over $700 for our cause (enough to send four girls to secondary school for an entire year!), we found ourselves juggling holiday plans, our spring line production, and for me personally- an infant with no interest in sleeping for more than a couple hours at a time.

You're Invited! { Join Chill Monkeys & Playpants Modern Bloomers for the playdate of the season }   During the holiday season, as busy moms ourselves, we know it takes a lot of effort to shop for gifts, fit in a playdate for the kids, celebrate with friends, and support local charities. So we decided it was time to throw a party that includes it all! Get families out for a fun afternoon to

But when we received her thank you along with this photo we were in love. This is why we love what we do. Meet Poppy, pictured below in Sunday Brunch. Congratulations to Tamara and her beautiful family!
