Activity #330: Claim your toddler’s hood with a t-shirt

by Whitney

Soon we’ll have a Rookie Moms holiday gift guide. Or maybe we won’t. It sorta depends on how many naps I can eek out of Scarlett this week. But I don’t want this gift idea to get lost in the shuffle of the potentially super dense and helpful gift guide to which you may or may not ever have access.

Order your favorite toddler a personalized shirt from your favorite make-your-own tshirt web site (mine is customglamgirl.com) and instead of his name, put the name of the tot park where he likes to hang. Whether its with you or a nanny, you know there’s that special place where, when your kiddo arrives, everyone stops and stares. “Oooh, Holden’s here!” says every Jacob, Maddie and Emma to one another, eyeing his Maclaren and Snack Trap. And when he gets up and stands atop the slide, pausing before his rapid descent, they’ll all see his shirt and know that he owns the place.

My kid goes to Totland in Berkeley. I made this shirt at neighborhoodies.com.
Simply colors has better prices, but less font choices.

Hey ladies,

I learned about your site from the babycenter bulletin boards. As a sahm with an 8 month-old, your site has kept me sane on many days! Thanks!

That is a cute idea!

OK, I LOVE this idea, but I can’t seem to find that t-shirt design (baseball swoosh) anyway on the website. Was it discontinued?
