Time for Tulle

When Tadpoles introduced The Tulle Collection for Crib and Bed Skirts, Valances and Curtain Panels 3 years ago, we thought it was a timely idea. We saw how much little girls  loved wearing tutus and dancing around. We thought “Hey, this is a great idea for our Princess room!”, which was all the rage back then. ( I suspect it could make a resurgence again with a new princess Kate waiting in the wings.)

Little did we know that this trend was only just the tip of  Tulle’s rising popularity. We’ve noticed more and more tutus and tulle on the flash sale sites recently. Well this weekend while running around and shopping, we noticed that the Gap had tulle for kids in full force. Printed with stars, layers of border tulle, gathered as ruffles and dip dyed. Tulle is hitting peak (again!). . . and my toddler could not be happier.

Look out later this spring for the expanded collection of colors and styles in Tadpoles Tulle room decor.

Tadpoles Test Drive Babies

The Baby Test Drive program is a way for Mothers and their Newborns to get early access to the newest Tadpoles items while we get valuable feedback before we move products into mass production. Our Test Drive Moms have been overjoyed and we have received spectacular feedback that we have been able to use to improve and enhance  our products.

The program sends sample items that are either in production or still in development to new moms. Moms and their babies are able to put our products to the ultimate test: real situations; real use; real wear and tear. They then give us feedback on how we can improve the product and use that information to improve the items.

Our TDMs have been very appreciative of the opportunity to try new products for free and to have their needs and opinions heard. They are our best ambassadors for the brand. And the Test Drive Babies? Well, they seem to be having a great time themselves…

Tadpoles ABC Floor Mats

Following up the success of the Tadpoles Playmat Set, we are pleased to announce the arrival of the newest Tadpoles items, the Tadpoles ABC Floor Mats. Using the same soft and colorful foam that we use in our other playmat sets, the Tadpoles ABC Floor Mats cover a full 36 square feet and are available in 3 fantastic colorways. Unlike most ABC playmats, we decided to make our floor mat colors more subdued and elegant, for a more upscale look. As with all Tadpoles items, these have been tested for safety and will provide your toddler with a soft and engaging place to play.

And to celebrate we are giving you free shipping on any ABC Floor Mat order! Use the promotional code “abcplayship” to get a $10 discount on your ABC Floor Mat order. This means your shipping is free!
