Okay Gen X’ers…after 226 design submissions and 186,296 votes, the Muppets T-shirt design challenge by Threadless has a winner. This means that it’s officially time to start brainwashing your children with characters from kid’s TV shows that you actually enjoy!

The challenge was to design a t-shirt incorporating Muppets around the theme of friendship. The winning design titled “Together Again” is available in Men’s, Women’s, and Kid’s sizes.

I received a few emails this morning from people wondering about Father’s Day gift delivery, so I thought I’d make a special post for our last minute customers. Any order shipping to a U.S. location completed by 1:00 pm PST on Wednesday (June 15th) will

arrive in time for Father’s Day.

We were nearly out of Stork Tools daddy diaper bags and The GoodFather gift CD-ROMs for new dads at the time of this posting, but a fair number of The GoodFather daddy t-shirts were still available in Lg, XL, and 2XL. Every order ships USPS 2-3 Day Priority, so don’t delay if you would like a Dr.MOZ daddy gift for your GoodFather in time for Father’s Day!

Happy Father’s Day!

It’s Saturday May 7th which means that something very important is just around the corner. Here’s a hint…it happens on Sunday and it celebrates someone that put you on the planet.  That’s right life fans, tomorrow is Mother’s Day! To help you create the best day

possible, your favorite moose M.D. whipped-up the best of the Mother’s Day gift guides of the year. Don’t thank me…I did it for your mom.

• Green Gift Guide for Mother’s Day: If the mom on your gift list would appreciate a eco-friendly gift, I recommend visiting TreeHugger’s Green Gift Guide where you’ll find everything from vintage jewelry to upcycled Hydrogardens. That’s right, I said “upcycled”. (~> TreeHugger’s Green Gift Guide for Mother’s Day)

I’m not one to use the “a” word frequently, but adorable could be the only way to describe the collection of handmade prints, onesies, and t-shirts offered by Minneapolis-based Too Many Suitors! As seen above:

• Ah Nuts: This two-color screen-print (9″ x 9″) on white French paper would look great in just about any nursery or play room wouldn’t you say?
• Lady Owl T-shirt: Because I know you like owls, I present to you this American Apparel classic girl tee (#2102) made of 100% fine jersey cotton shirt. Did I mention it was on sale for only $10?!!!
• Lady Owl Onesie: Printed on an American Apparel onesie with Red/Pink ink on light blue fabric. You have a very limited number of cute  “matchy matchy” years ahead, so you better get started right away and pick-up this Lady Owl onesie to match your shirt!

I could go on and on about additional cute finds at the Too Many Suitors Etsy store, but with a sale like this…it wouldn’t be responsible of me to keep you away from the savings any longer.

Bonjour baby fans! Today’s feature is a short and sweet introduction to the new French baby line that I think you’ll want to keep your eyes on in the coming years, Dis Une Couleur. As the name implies, it’s a colorful collection and you’ve gotta love the vintage-

inspired athletic styling! In their words:

“Des vêtements lookés vintage, aux couleurs vives et mixtes, faits de matières douces et écologiques pour les cocos et les cocottes de 0 à 6 ans“

Bright colors on soft organic fabrics, what more could a sporty baby ask for? See their entire line at DisUneCouleur.com or become a fan like I did on Facebook!

Au revoir,
Dr.MOZ

As regular readers know, I’m not usually one to promote geeky gifts for babies and toddlers…okay, maybe I am. Superhero snapsuits are moving fast, so you better put down the coffee cup and close that riveting game of solitaire before ThinkGeek.com is

completely cleared-out for the holidays! In a related note, it’s good to see The Flash and Green Lantern making a comeback…not that I care about that sort of thing. What?

Have fun and stay healthy,

I must be on an animal kick this week because I can’t stop featuring cool animal products for the nursery. Today I have a healthy dose of baby cuteness in the form of baby animal prints by Sharon Montrose. Prices start at $25 for 8.5″ x 11″ open edition prints and

go all the way up to $5,000 for large 40″ x 52″ limited edition prints. Each piece is printed on fine art photo paper (luster finish) using archival pigment inks…no pun intended. Looking for a different baby animal to fit your nursery’s theme? No problem, Sharon has over 33 different baby prints available at TheAnimalPrintShop.com!

Have fun and stay healthy,

As super fans may remember, we did a post back in 2008 “Nursery Art with a Twist” highlighting the fantastic husband and wife duo Berkleys. According to a recent tweet, they’ve entered the pillow business…and just in time for holiday shopping!

I don’t see their pillows available in their Etsy shop quite yet, but the word on the streets is they’ll be part of this weekend’s Crafty Wonderland in Portland, Oregon until this Sunday December 12th. In the off chance you can’t make it to the Oregon Convention center this weekend and need to score some animal madness of your own, I’ve assembled the ultimate linkfest for all things Berkley below:

Somewhere out there in Mozville, a Psychologist is about to become a parent. People are searching high and low for an appropriate baby shower gift, but where would you go to find a specialized gift like this? Well…I’m afraid you’ve come to the wrong place if you’re looking

for something appropriate, but I suggest the Lil’ Freudian Baby Slippers. You’ll find them at the Neatoshop in sizes 0-6 months and 6-12+ months for $13.95! Did I mention that Sigmund’s tongue moves when the baby’s toes wiggle?

Today’s feature could be an irresistible purchase if you are a grandparent, so stop reading now if you aren’t prepared to spend another $35 on the grand kids.  Animal-shaped pillowcases by Milo and Gabby make perfect gifts for the dinosaur and pony lover in

the family. Designed to fit over any standard to queen-size pillow, these soft 100% cotton pillowcases will quickly become a kid’s best friend in the “big kid room” and might even be a useful companion when adjusting to the dark. That is…unless they are afraid of dinosaurs, then you might want to consider the pony, fish, bunny, dog, or cat pillowcase instead.

Have fun and stay healthy,

We’ve all seen extravagant clubhouses in catalogs, but have you ever seen a tree house that comes with the tree? The $15,575 Mackey’s Mansion Tree House (Deluxe Model) is built on top of a 6 foot-tall log with it’s own porch and door. Features for the “deluxe”

model include:

• Real oversized log (approx. 5′ dia)

• Log porch, door, and window with eave

• 5′ x 6′ oversized clubhouse floor

• Qty 4 crooked windows

• Qty 2 belt swings

• Monkey bars

• Rust accent package

• 6′ x 6′ oversized balcony floor

• Roof dormer

• Spiral turbo slide

• Staircase with landing

• 15′H x 28′W x 12′D

If you thought that was expensive, it actually gets worse. Shipping isn’t included, so you better expect to pay a pretty penny if you want a massive log, a clubhouse, a staircase, and a full-sized jungle gym shipped to your home. On a better note, a Mackey’s Mansion Tree House might be cheaper than a pony in the long run.

Have fun and stay healthy,
