FAQ

How do you buy a replacement battery for those big backyard ride-on toys?

It's best not to look in stores but instead to call the toy company's customer service #800 number. They sell these separately and keep in mind, it is always best to keep these recharged when not in use but they don't last forever.

New Mom Style and Comfort Guide

It is exciting for any new mother to prepare for the arrival of an additional family member. In addition to all the new gear a child requires there is also a lot of things a mother needs for her own comfort. Our new mom guide combines comfort and style to include products that help make mothers-to-be a little more comfortable. All products are tested using the Toy Tips methodology with mothers on a consistent basis. This ensures that continuous use of the product is favorable and useful.

Our rating system is based on a 3-5 star scoring table. This means all products surpass average scores and we do not publish any review that has received a score less than 3. After testing, all products are donated to The Toy Research Institute for children in need. For this study, we tested hundreds of products and the results of the best reviews are listed in our guide.

We only publish information on products that exceed our testing standards. We do not publish reviews of average scores.

Products listed in this guide are ideal for showers, gifts or just because!

Comfort:
There are a variety of products that assist a mother to be comfortable. Oils and creams are important to keep the skin healthy for both mom and baby. While there is absolutely no magical product that will make stretch marks disappear forever, there are products that assist in reducing the marks and providing smooth skin.

Style:
Every mom wants to look stylish during pregnancy and many manufacturers are now making that happen. We took a look at fashion and concluded that shoes are just as trendy as the pregnancy clothes a mother-to-be wears. However, shoes for pregnant mommy’s need to be easy to walk and have extra room for that added pregnancy cushioning! After testing and reviewing different brands and styles, these are the ones our pregnant testers found to be among the best.
