The year of the dragon is upon us and Skip Hop is celebrating with a special edition collection of dragon Packs and Bibs. Sorry kids, it's only available in Asia but we wanted to share the inspiration behind the collection.
Fun fact! In Chinese culture, it is considered good fortune to be born in the year of the dragon. A baby boom is expected and Hong Kong hospitals are booked up!
We love seeing celebrities out and about with their little ones and once in awhile, we'll spy a Skip Hop product! Selma Blair was recently spotted carrying Baby Arthur and sporting a new duo from our Jonathan Adler for Skip Hop Collection in Yellow Flame. See more pics here.
Get the look! Jonathan Adler for Skip Hop Duo in Flame Yellow

24 paper doll cut outs, 2 Jonathan Adler pottery pieces and endless amounts of construction paper later, we have completed our first stop motion video featuring our new diaper bag and pronto collection with Jonathan Adler!
Take a look at the entire collection here: http://bit.ly/AdlerCollection
AND here are a few behind the scenes pics of making the video!
The Jonathan Adler ♥ Skip Hop Launch Party is still all-the-buzz here at Skip Hop! After all, it's not every day we get to host top bloggers and unveil our new, über-groovy collection alongside Jonathan Adler + Team. A special thanks to Ali Wing and her amazing staff at giggle SoHo for hosting the event and making it a memorable evening.
Thanks to everyone for joining us! See the entire photo album here.

Favorite gift you received as a kid? The ULTIMATE Christmas gift I received as a child was a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle Crime Time Van! I mean this bad boy had the coolest features! It came with an army-like hiding tank covered in turtle shell yet still had a fem touch of April’s reporting vehicle! My favorite part was when the side door shot open my turtle of choice (usually Rafael!) would be sitting on this 'door-seat' feature and slime would shoot out attacking any of Shredders crew standing nearby! I know, so RAD! I always fell short when competing with my cousin, Enrique. That Christmas the lack of ability to win due to the shortage of gadgets was all over and I was ahead of the game!

Favorite gift you received as a kid? Food! If there was food around, I was always close by. I loved to pretend my mom was running a restaurant and I was her customer. My mom’s an amazing cook so I always got the best food and best service – on the house!
