suzy's picks for kids

I have mentioned my friend Suzy in other posts.

You must check her out on 

Pinterest

then start following her.

She has a super keen eye for all things cool.

I asked her for her list of favorite

things for kids.

Here it is:

the EzyRoller moves like a snake, 

without chains or pedals, 

using easy right-left leg movements."

Suzy's adorable daughter Kate

carries her doll everywhere.
