ABC Kids Expo 2008: Calla High Chair

Chris Ford — Mon, 15 Sep 2008 16:48:00 GMT

The Calla High Chair is kind of a puzzle for me, because while the shape of the chair really makes it stand out, even from all the other "modern" highchairs at ABC, it's still just a high chair. It's still just a piece of furniture with a very limited practical shelf-life that your kids are going to inevitably make very, very messy. But your kid has to sit somewhere and eat, right? More details after the jump.

The Calla highchair was designed by Yves Behar for Fleurville and has all of the normal high chair type stuff - a tray, a foot rest etc. It's also height-adjustable, raising all the way up to bar height (which is a nice feature). But what you're really purchasing is the look. It really was something to look at - I'm pretty sure there isn't a ninety degree angle on any part of it.. And although they didn't allow me to take a picture I still wanted to write about it.

The chair is a bright yellow and will undoubtedly stand out in your home, so it might be a hard fit with the rest of your decor. I suppose though that if you've got a room full of furniture already that the Calla would be at home in, then you probably aren't worrying about it standing out. And you probably aren't sweating the price either.

The Calla highchair will be available in the Spring of 2009 from Fleurville for a retail price of $580. Check it out at callachair.com.

Star Baby: Do Lunch Just Like Violet Affleck

SunnyChanel — Fri, 12 Sep 2008 18:34:00 GMT

My daughter is about to start preschool in two very short weeks. One of the items on my to-do list is to find her a sporty yet stylish lunch carrier of some sort. Me thinks we’re going to have to “steal” Violet’s (daughter of Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner) look with this Lunch Pak by Fleurville (essential designs for modern parenting). Not only does it make lunch all that more appetizing but it is insulated throughout, has a separate pocket for things like artwork and petite class projects and is PVC-free. If you’re little one isn’t feeling the Oso pattern below, it also comes in blue, green and navy. $32 here.

Fleurville Kid’s Messenger Takes Packs Off Backs

Heather Kuldell — Tue, 12 Aug 2008 12:25:00 GMT

I dunno if messenger bags for kids are a parental preference or a rite of passage to show you’re old hat at the whole school thing. Fleurville Kid’s Messenger Bags are smaller than most adult bags (10 inches by 12 inches by 4 inches) for comfy carrying by the elementary-school set (ages 5-10).

Each bag features two exterior water-bottle pockets, organizational pockets, and comes with a reusable lunch bag. In case homework gets too heavy, the bag also has stowable backpack straps for a more agronomic haul. As with most Fleurville products, the materials are lead-free, PVC-free and Teflon-free.

Available in black with camo skulls, pink with “ogo” print, and brown with “ogo” print from Fleurville for $50.

Lighten Up with Fleurville Re-Run MicroPod

Heather Kuldell — Thu, 24 Apr 2008 13:45:00 GMT

If you can’t get to spring-cleaning the house, do yourself a favor and clean out the good ol’ diaper bag. Or better yet, scale down. Fleurville Re-Run MicroPod has room for just the crucial stuff.

The MicroPod is just a wee bag with room for a couple of diapers, the changing cloth, wipe case and zip-out pocket for sippy cups or bottles. The outer pocket is fleece-lined for parent gear like cell phones or mP3 players and even features a pass-through for ear buds. It’s probably a little purse-like for pops, but he can wear it as a waist pack. On second thought, just attach it to a stroller.

The MicroPod is made out of trademarked Re-Run fabric, which is created by recycling about three plastic bottles. The bags are available in olive, pink, red, chocolate or black for $28 (including changing cloth and wipe case). If you prefer a girlier pattern, the ogo is available for $30.

Finding a bag that both fits your child's body and is large enough to carry their books and school supplies can be a challenge. Not to mention also be appealing to their sense of style.

This messenger style bag by Fleurville fits the bill on all accounts. Versatile, this bag can be carried messenger style or with the back pack straps that tuck into the back of the bag when not in use. It also comes with a matching insulated lunch bag.

It's also PVC- and teflon-free, meaning this bag is environmentally friendly as well as attractive.
