On Sunday, we made our way to Babyccino Kids’ ShopUp event in Brooklyn and we are so glad we did… it was eye candy for me and super fun for my little Lola. I especially loved that there were so many cool activities that Sofia was able to get herself into… from waving a wand […]

hello there… from Brooklyn!
