CoPilot Lift
Sports and back strain have an unfortunate way of blending, especially when we're picking up kids who are constantly falling as they learn to ski or skate. Time to invest in the CoPilot Lift—a fitted harness that helps keep kids, and you, upright while they learn new skills. Made by a BC company, it was originally designed for kids learning to ski and navigate the chairlift, but it's also helpful when learning to glide on the ice.

Smittens
We're smitten with Smittens from Canadian company, January Baby. Slide one hand in and wrap the length of the cozy fleece around to the other side. Their hands won't come out and the mittens won't fall off. It's easy to be—and stay—in love with this idea.

Babies love games, particularly the “I take my hat off and throw it down” game. We know you never tire of your little one, but the games they play can be exhausting… and cause frostbite (not a good combination).The solution?
