Shout-Out Tees Allow Kids to Express Themselves

LilSugar — Tue, 03 Feb 2009 13:00:37 -0800

Express yourself - it's not just the title of a Madonna song, but the catchphrase for tots ready to tell us what's on their minds. Shout Out Clothing ($29) allows lil ones to tell us exactly what they want with t-shirts that feature changeable letters, numbers and symbols. Each shirt comes with a zipper pouch filled with three copies of each letter and number and one of each symbol. Your kid can then spell out their feelings of the day on both the front and back of their shirt, and change their message when they wish. Created by former All My Children actor Colin Egglesfield, these interactive tees also encourage spelling and vocabulary skills in older kids.

Does your tot like to show off? One California mama is making tees for lil ones "that floss." The founder of High Gloss had a hard time finding unique duds for her sons so she created her own line of urban shirts ($12). There's a Now I Know shirt with an edgy alphabet print, Match 'Em Up tee that kids can wear and play the popular game with graffiti art tools, and a truck top that showcases a modern ice cream truck. These threads make for a great out of the box gift, but buy one size bigger - they run a bit small!

If you've got a wee one that is enthused about our newest president, Barack Obama, then let him wear his or her pride in the form of a soft genOtee onesie or tee that proudly exclaims, "I am Generation O." The darling duds are the brainchild of a mama who is cashing in on the Obama craze after she made one for her baby in a moment of inspiration on election night. Fellow parents kept asking her where to buy them so she made selling them her business. The soft cotton garments say "CHANGE" on the back and are priced at $18 - $20. If you're a parent that is into family dressing, pick up the line's adult shirt ($15) for yourself!

There are lots of vintage graphic tees for tots but few for their doting mamas.

Parents dress their tots in "My Mom Is Wonder Woman" onesies or "I love Daddy" tees, but rarely do they reciprocate the bragging via cotton shirts. Show your kids the love with this I Love My Kids ($34) T–shirt. Your babes will know you're proud of them and so will the rest of the world.

Unless you can tolerate rolling teen eyes, you might want to retire it to the pajama drawer when baby turns 13.
