Holiday Shopping Guide

4 Rider college StrollerAbout this time of year we enjoy sitting down over a hot beverage, perhaps with Bing Crosby crooning Christmas tunes to set the mood, and putting together our gift-buying list for the holidays. Here at Rosenberry Rooms we have something for everyone, to make your job easier than ever before. Shop with confidence among our award-winning children’s items and quality gift ideas that adults will love, too. Our purpose is to help you please everyone on your list, so we offer these ideas with wishes for a wonderful, magical holiday season for you and your whole family!

Let’s start with Dad. He’s usually tough to buy for, but we’ve got some ideas he’ll love. We all know how hard it is for Dad to ride – he’d much rather do the driving! So why not pick him up a new baby stroller to cruise the neighborhood, park or mall with? Sporty, handsome models can be found among our fleet of high quality strollers from today’s leading manufacturers. Dad will be proud to be found behind the wheel on the next outing!

Another fantastic option is to select an athletic-themed personalized canvas or wall plaque sporting the names of the kiddos, suitable for Dad to hang on the wall of his office, or next to his recliner in the family room. There’s a complete Dad-friendly collection right here at Rosenberry Rooms!

Audrey GlowWe’ve got what Moms love, too! While Dad is pushing the stroller, Mom is probably handling the diaper chores. Why not help her do it in style with a with a super-stylish Mia Bossi diaper bag? These designer bags look great and carry all the gear needed to meet the needs of the little ones. See the Mia Boss collection, or all our fantastic diaper bags right here!

Diapers aren’t much fun, so add something to it she can have a blast with – a wall mural kit that will give her the chance to express her creativity, while adding fanciful good looks to a bedroom or play area. Our large selection offers her a variety that suits her tastes to a fun-filled “T”!

If Mom is handy with scissors and thread, employing the sewing machine you bought her last Christmas, let her choose from one of the many fabrics we carry at Rosenberry Rooms. Fabric by the yard is perfect for bedding, valences, curtains, wall hangings and whatever else her ambition conceives. She’ll find a pattern, color, or style she loves in our collection.

Is there a little man in your house? Give him a rocking toy that will let him make good use of his inherent energy. These cool, sturdy rocking horses will lead to whoops and laughter every time. Our super cool collection of pedal cars and tricycles are well worth a look, too!

Every boy likes a place to store his gear. These chests and toy boxes will fit his style and give him the motivation to keep his room picked up, too!

Little fellas play hard, and then crash quickly. Our wide variety of bed styles let’s you outfit his room with a bed, trundle, or bunk he will look forward to hitting at the end of a busy day!

Girls are different altogether, and we’ve got them covered this holiday season. Does your little princess enjoy playing dress up? Our selection of items for pretend and dress-up will delight, and give her imagination room to soar.

Storytime RockerPerhaps her creativity is inspired by the written and illustrated word, and she needs a new chair to cozy up with her newest picture book or chapter book. We have the right chair or rocker for her reading corner, and the perfect lamp to illuminate the book, while it illuminates her thoughts and dreams!

For boys and girls of all ages, our collection of children’s art, from renowned artists, will strike a creative chord and add the perfect final touch to any room where children spend time. Peruse our large selection, and find the style, colors, and images to complement the room’s décor and your child’s tastes.

We know you wouldn’t forget the Grandparents when searching for the perfect gift. Why not start with a holiday frame to display this year’s holiday photos? We have several holiday-themed frames, and many others that will provide a welcomed and enduring keepsake. Or perhaps grandpa would enjoy a tent or teepee this year! Actually, if your little ones spend a lot of time with their grandparents, they might appreciate a little space to call their own while away from home. These fantastic products are well-made and very creative.

Gift CertificateWhen grandma sees the grand kids, she often remarks on how big they are getting. Now, the kids can prove it with a colorful, artistic, and inspiring growth chart. Personalize the chart with your child’s name for a truly memorable gift this holiday season!

If your list is still has a few bare spots on it, refill your mug and enjoy drifting through the colorful pages of our online catalog. You’ll soon come across the perfect gift for that certain someone. And don’t forget, Rosenberry Rooms gift certificates are always available when you just can’t make up your mind! Be sure to see our Top Gift Ideas blog for more great gifts!

Ornaments and Holiday Frames

Dash Holiday FrameDuring the holiday season our thoughts and feelings often drift back in time to our favorite memories of family gatherings, toys and sweets, or, if we are parents, the joy we’ve received over the years watching our children discover the delights of the season. Often those moments have been captured in photos, and all they lack is the perfect holiday-themed frame in which to display them. Rosenberry Rooms offers a variety of quality wood frames perfectly suited to exhibit that old black and white photograph featuring you and your siblings awestruck in front of the Christmas tree, or the full-color shot of your own little ones dressed in their holiday best, antsy with anticipation among the wrapped wonders that wait. When selecting the right frame, our Dash Holiday and Happy Holiday frames are a good place to begin. Traditionalists will love our weathered-wood frames, while fun-loving folks will opt for the Funky Holiday Stripe frame. Any of these can be customized at home with the addition of a festive bow and ribbon, or a personalized holiday ornament from Rosenberry Rooms draped over a corner.

Blue Holly Snowman OrnamentSpeaking of ornaments, they are not just for the tree any more. Today’s fashionable baubles are the perfect adornment for the wreath on the front door that welcomes guests, the garland adorning the banister, and the mantle where we place cards warmly received from family and friends. Personalized ornaments bearing the name of our children and featuring a Christmas tree, snow man, or other favorite images of the season, serve as wonderful gift labels that will find their place in the decorations for years and possibly generations to come. The ornament options at Rosenberry Rooms give you the opportunity to mark your little one’s first Christmas, including their name and year, in a variety of styles. Classic round globes, country-influenced wood squares, and other designs offer you the freedom to create the lasting memory you want to pass along and enjoy for years to come. Religious themes bring the significance of the season to mind, and whimsical scenes depict the festive feelings the holidays hold for each of us. Whatever your style, customs, or traditions, our ornaments may be tailored to express the way you celebrate the holidays. Choose a “Believe” star hanging ornament, a Blue Holly Snowman, an Angel Boy or Angel Girl personalized Christmas ornament, or a First Christmas Wagon personalized with your child’s name and the year. These are a few of the many frames and ornaments that will provide the personal touch that will be cherished each year, as you add to your collection of photographs and keepsake memories!

Unique Gifts and Toys for Kids

It may only be October, but at the same time it is already October, and many people have begun putting their gift lists together for the holidays. I am not one of those people. I am the person who is scrambling the week before, mailing things out late with a note apologizing again for the delay. Every year I plan on doing things different – taking advantage of sales and Black Friday, but first I would have to have my list done, which is the problem. I thought I would highlight some toys and games for toddlers and kids that stand out among the rest because they are unique, educational, incredibly stylish, or a combination of all these things. All of these products are just wonderful in my opinion and any little girl or boy would be happy to own them.

Big Rigs Semi Truck – This all wood toy is classic is style and structure. What a great toy that any boy will love, plus the added bonus is there are 4 different trucks in this collection, so you can give him a whole crew to play with!

Animal Parade Alphabet Cards – These alphabet cards by eeBoo are wonderful because they bring back the old schoolhouse tradition in a modern way. These 8×10 cards are perfect for teaching your little one the alphabet and the animals that they can associate with each letter. Keep them as they are, or frame them in simple wooden frames to border your child’s bedroom or playroom.

Play Coffee Maker – Every child loves to play pretend and most kids have a kitchen as well. This is the perfect companion for that imaginative space. This is just one of the many wooden toys by KidKraft that are sturdy and fun for kids of all ages.

Children’s Apron – I think this is a unique gift idea for a little girl who loves to play dress up. She can use it to back cookies and cakes in her kitchen, or perhaps while she cleans up the dishes. These are custom made by Pixie Dust Décor and come in their specialty fabrics, custom made for you – just another way they would make a special gift.

Sparrow Lilac Scribble Kit – What a great way to entertain kids at the restaurant, or when waiting in the doctor’s office or for the oil to get changed. This is every parent’s dream – a compact, easy to carry kit with paper and crayons to give them something to focus on when you need them to sit still for a few minutes. Plus, they are by Dwell so you get the fun and hip fabrics from their collection.

URoll Racer – The perfect gift for the child who likes things that go…fast! This will corner like no other and is ideal for tight or limited spaces…so consider this the urban answer for your active little one!

Kids Playing Cards – A great stocking stuffer, this group of playing cards will bring hours of fun for the whole family. Teach your child classic card games with these mini cards, and bring them along to grandma’s house, too!

kids-playing-cards

Natural Wishbone Bike – This is a running bike with a twist…and a very practical one at that. To begin, you can start of in tricycle mode for your one year old, then it will go to a two wheeler, but the best part is the body of the bike then flips over to accommodate for a 4 or 5 year old. Take about a gift that will get it use! A great pre-bike, this will help your child with balance, coordination and overall confidence. A must have in every household.

Back To School Basics

These days everyone is preparing for their kiddies to head back to school. We are preparing our toddler for preschool which starts in just 2 weeks…where did summer go?! Well, now that our focus is lunches, homework assignments, and carpools (among the sports and activities after school) I thought it would be good to highlight some of the fun school basics that Rosenberry Rooms has. You may or may not be needing a new desk, but there are also plenty of other fun basics that will make your child’s first day or return day to school fun and exciting.

Desk and Hutch – giving your child a place that is theirs will make homework and assignment time much more interesting and easier to get done. Now there are so many different styles of desks and hutches that you can go as simple as you like or get one that basically stores and organizes everything but your child! Choose based on your child’s age and how many years of school they have as well as how much space there is in their room. For a toddler who is just starting out, you can simply choose the desk portion and wait on the hutch until they are further along and will need the storage for books and other personal items. Don’t forget that many desks now have the option of a keyboards drawer that slides out, which is convenient and very practical especially as your child grows and will inevitably be using a computer. Lastly, style is obviously a big factor, but there is no need to worry there…traditional, modern, or somewhere in between you will find one you love. Personally I love the over all style of the Treasures Desk and Hutch by Alligator Enterprise – they have awesome color combinations and great features like a file drawer and slide out keyboard tray. Alligator Enterprise is a wonderful children’s furniture line altogether, definitely worth every penny.

Lunch Box – why not bring back the memories from your own childhood and get a cool personalized lunch box for back to school? Let’s face it, they are much more exciting that a brown paper bag, and in the end will save you some change. There are a few styles out there that are really cute, but one of my favorites is the Robot Personalized Lunch Box. Not only is the design great, it is personalized, and has a slew of features like being lead free, waterproof and food safe, plus having a dry erase sheet affixed to the inside of the lunchbox lid – perfect for leaving a note for your child. This designer offers plenty of other styles for both boys and girls…you will be able to match your child’s personality perfectly!

Memo Boards, Cork Boards, Chalkboards – Let’s be honest, the part about back to school that is not so fun is trying to keep everything organized, schedules straight and calendars in sync. So, what better way than for each child to have their own board to have reminders and lists of activities, assignments and other important dates for the week and month? I think it is the best way to keep on top of everything, and there are some really fun options out there to choose from these days. You can opt for something more simple just framed in wood, or if you want to really personalize it, you can go with something a little more “interesting”. I absolutely love the Pink Patent Leather Memo Board – what a great idea to use white patent leather as the background fabric…any girl would love this, it is just fantastic!

Some other things that would be great for back to school are items from eeBoo like their alphabet wall cards, counting cards, memory games, and language flash cards. You can check out all of the eeBoo line here. There is also some great art by Oopsy Daisy such as the mural banners of the world and the USA which are tools for learning as well as pieces of décor. Check out their mural banners here.

Enjoy the chaos of these back to school days and happy shopping!
