Today is the last day of our “Spring Fashion & Beauty” focus. It has been fun learning about various products for moms. However, I just have to include this one product that I found for young kids – babycapes. Created by two West Virginia moms, these capes are both practical and adorable!


On the practical side, the capes address the challenge of getting active kids into car seats without having to deal with bulky coats and jackets. It’s not just for car seats though (I know that many of us city dwellers don’t drive as much). They capes also work really well with strollers and front carriers. Although it’s officially “spring”, we’re still having some cold days (not to mention the upcoming rainy ones!) so this is still a great product to keep kids warm and safe.
We all love the sensible side of things, but it also helps if we like how the product looks. Trust me; you’ll like the appearance of babycapes. When I opened the blue one that I received to review, I couldn’t believe that it was 100% polyester because it felt and looked so luxurious. (It appeared to be a soft suede product.) There was a group of people at my house when I opened it and I gave it to one of the moms to test on her daughter. (She loved it.) What was hilarious though is that one of the guys was even more excited about the cape than we were. “This is great. It’s so pretty. It’s so practical. Look what you can do with it…” he gushed. (His wife is SO going to need to have a baby soon!)
The last thing that I want to write about this product is that it is “one size fits all” from newborn to preschooler. That is especially great budget-wise. Babycapes is currently holding an “American Economic Recovery Sale” where they are discounting all of their styles 40% off their regular prices. So, get over their quickly!
