Since we have family in different parts of the country, traveling is a must for us, so I am always looking for products that might make the trip, or being away from home, a little easier.  And I have to say the Go-Pod (pictured) was the number one product this summer for our vacations to see family and introduce our new little one.  This portable, lightweight activity seat folds up easily – a must when packing up the family roadster – but it is so convenient, I use it every day around the house as well. You can read all about it here, but I want to know, what was your must-have product for travel this summer, for your babies or young children?

Yesterday I came across another great artist who makes Customizable Baby Blocks. 

Not only are these blocks a hip twist on a retro idea, all materials used are non toxic – and that is a great update from the children’s blocks of the past.  These solid wood blocks are a great way to decorate the nursery or for helping your child to learn the alphabet.  And all of the blocks can be customized to create a truly unique baby shower gift. 

These hand painted blocks are offered in a variety of sizes and there is a huge assortment of styles so you can pick the colors and treatment that suits your taste.  Here are some great sample photos on Flickr.  Take a look at the Holy Craft blog for more information and to get your own customized baby blocks.
