Bitty Style: King of Harts New Kids Fashion Line
Actress Melissa Joan Hart and her husband Mark Wilkerson have teamed up to launch their first ever kids’ line, King of Harts. As the parents of three young active sons they were motivated to create a line of cool, functional, and resilient clothing options that could keep up with their frog catching, mud-puddle jumping, tree climbing boys.
Melissa and Mark wanted to start their vision with a simple jean and T-shirt boys collection but couldn’t resist featuring other pieces to complete the outfit such as military inspired outerwear. All items are manufactured in America, which was a huge priority for them while developing this line.
Melissa says, “With this line we not only wanted to create a really great durable product for boys but we made it a priority to keep the production of the line local to where we live. Our country isn’t only represented in the clothing design but every piece is also made in America.”
The duo reached out to veteran kid’s designer Souad Acha, who immediately came on board. Souad used modern details with a vintage feel to create a collection that is fun, edgy and different from anything in the market.
King of Harts will be working with Youth Villages, a national nonprofit dedicated to providing the most effective local solutions to help emotionally and behaviorally troubled children and their families live successfully, by donating a portion of sale proceeds to the organization.
The line will range from sizes 2-12. The Winter 2014 line is currently available for pre-order online at Kingofharts.com. The Spring/Summer line will be available in specialty stores in March 2015 and is currently available for wholesale.

Disruptus™ – which asks players to look at objects and ideas and use different approaches — as determined by the roll of a die — to innovate. Disruptus draws inspiration from the very important practice of ‘disruptive thinking’. Disruptive thinking is one of the most powerful ways to innovate. It has been used to create ideas and objects like digital music, camera phones, and car sharing programs. Not only being used in corporations to help employees and teams be more innovative, it’s also beloved by families and has won the Party Game of the Year 2013 by Creative Child Magazine and a Laugh Out Loud Award by Tillywig Toy Reviews.

Smitten for the Wee Generation Toys/Decor
Kerrie Vacalis of Austin, TX launched Smitten after realizing quickly into parenthood that the fascination, whimsy, and wonder of childhood was being degraded by fast paced over-stretched world. People were too busy, too plugged in, too stressed to enjoy it. She believes children’s things can be unique, long lasting and inspire children to create, discover, and imagine; that they can allow parents and grandparents to reconnect with the magic of their childhood and, in turn, share it now with those that matter most.
Smitten’s mission is to help bring the magic of childhood back – where kids can be kids, interact with others and revel in the pleasure of simply spending time together. The e-shop carries items from local and international brands including Jess Brown, Corby Lindersticks, Janod, Oeuf and Lille Huset.Smitten for the Wee Generation (www.perfectlysmitten.com)
