Real Moms’ Reviews of Everything for Mom and Baby

Mom’s Favorite Stuff, founded by Jodi Grundig in 2007, is the premiere resource for everything that makes moms’ life easier – from video tips, articles, and product reviews. We review a wide range of family-friendly products including children’s clothes, children’s shoes, kids’ DVDs, music CDs, books, and toys. We also find ourselves talking quite a bit about family travel, family dinners, and beauty products. Tuesdays is Tip Tuesdays where we write parenting tips, and on Thursdays, we post a video review.
