Peapods September Newsletter: Animals on Parade & New Fall Items

Animals on Parade We may have been a little overly excited about the recent birth of a baby giraffe at the Como Zoo. But then again, we've always had a soft spot for giraffes. And babies. In any case, it inspired us to display all of our giraffe-themed toys and baby goods all together. We were surprised to learn how much we have! From cloth diapers and baby blankets to Sophie and Gyffy, we've got giraffes! We've even got giraffe wrapping paper. Investigating further, we discovered that many other animals are also very well represented: Owls, monkeys, chickens, fish, horses, pigs... We've got them all over! And, since we're often asked to match a nursery theme or find a particular animal for a kid who really loves, say, hedgehogs, we decided to list as many as we could all in one place. So, be sure to take a look at our virtual zoo! Mark Your Calendars! We are proud to sponsor the 2013 Twin Cities Birth & Baby Expo! The Expo is the best way for new and expecting parents to connect with the incredible birth and parenting resources our community has to offer.  Mark your calendar and tell your friends; we'd love to see you there!
