We’ve been doing a little shopping as of late for Marc, its time to start thinking about Fall… its been a long summer and there have been plenty of ketchup dropped on his current lines of t-shirts. First let me admit I’m a jeans and t-shirt guy 90% of the time thats what you’ll find me in… Threadless [Link] filled a great need for me cool t-shirts at good prices and not ones that everyone and their mother have, but really cool unique designs… Now that back to school shopping is starting to get into full swing Threadlessannounces their new Kids line (CROWD GOES WILD!) [http://kids.threadless.com] following similar awesome designs the kids store opens with 12 new designs on top of the 12 classic designs that have been available for a little while. Parents can snag any tee, hoody, hoodsie, or onesie for the kiddos and get free shipping anywhere. Sizes will range from zero to three months all the way up to size 12. These also make awesome birthday gifts (I’m sure Marc will get one for his 2nd birthday coming up later this month).
To kick off the launch of the website Threadless will also be holding a contest through their Facebook page where parents of kids crazy for crayons, mad for markers and tickled by tees can download a tee template and have their kids draw a design of their very own on it. Parents can then scan it or take a picture and post it to the Threadless Kids! facebook wall. Threadless will choose a winner from three age groups (4 and under, 5-7, 8-10 and 10-12) to win a $50 Threadless gift certificate. They’ll also choose an overall winner to receive a pack of 12 Threadless Kids! tees and a $100 Threadless gift certificate. Winners will be chosen based on the three A’s- Awesomeness, Adorability and Artistry.
But if you dont want to enter that giveaway – we’ve got an awesome one here… 4 lucky fans will win a $25 gift cards to Threadless.

Mad men, which is set in the 1960’s around the men (and women) of Madison Avenue who develop the art of spin and really what advertising is today. Is set to return for another season starting Sunday on AMC (check your local cable/satellite listings). I love this show, first its total guy/dude/dad sprinkle in the women (who were still fighting for equal rights at the time this is set is clearly being shown). Beyond that its just awesome how much cooler things look then compared to now… yes I’m a total retro junkie but you know what everything was made better back then (heck even iphones were made better a year or two ago – lol [I’m an apple lover just needed to put it out there])… But really the cars built there are still running today, the furniture built then was solid like toss two toddlers on the desk and let them jump and not a dent – today you’d have two kids on the floor crying with splintered polyboard wood chips around them.
One thing I love about Don Draper is in the show which we’ve now reached mid-1960’s we only seen Don unshaven like once! So I gotta ask how does he get that amazing shave?! it must be the Art of Shaving, I’ll admit I’m not a razor user daily I’m really more of a once a week kind of guy… I like the stubble – my wife hates it.
I’ve used Art of Shaving products in the past – they really make shaving something a little retro and something very cool. I could never get as close with my electric razor then I can with a straight raiser and using some of the products in this art of shaving kit makes that shave last a little longer and get a lot closer because if you can raise the hairs, then you’ll cut them closer (which will help save off that 4 o’clock shadow a few hours longer).
Sure this could be your fake business card… or you can use
The Art of Shaving Fusion® Chrome Collection ProGlide™ Shave Set (SRP: $40)
Includes 8 Fusion ProGlide Power blade cartridges PLUS starter sizes of The Art of Shaving Pre-Shave Oil, Shaving Cream, Badger Shaving Brush, and After-Shave Balm. These products combine The Art of Shaving aromatherapy-based products, handcrafted accessories and expert shaving technique to guarantee optimal shaving results while relieving and preventing ingrown hairs, razor burn, tough beard and sensitive skin. Here is a similar Art of Shaving Starter Kit – Unscented on Amazon [Link].
Also today starts the chance to get 20% off luxury shaving products from The Art of Shaving beginning tomorrow (July 22).

I’ve always loved the simple fact that my sons loves music. Its something about a toddler and music that just go together like peanut butter and jelly. For the last few months its been all about pianos because the keys are way safer then string guitars.
Enter the modern age guitar by paper jam – this thing rocks! With a great senors that play cords and songs. It really is paper thin and I must admit although its marketed as a kids toy – I’ve totally found myself playing it again and again. The sound volume is great and clear, which isnt always the case with kids toys. The art on the guitar is awesome and the response from the senors is magical.
Really one of the biggest concerns with little kids and guitars is that’ll they slice their finger if they hit the string in a certain way, but there is no strings here. This would make an amazing gift for any kid that is even the slightest musically inclined. While I was demoing the guitar they also make a drum and a amp. I’m sure the quality that is in the guitar is also in the drums and amp.
Each instrument comes with a set list of songs and they’re coming out in series so they’ll be a factor of collectible on top of the fact you’ll want some different songs. I’m totally down with my kid learning to love classic rock, as I’m sure my wife would love him to learn country music (dont forget she’s from Texas). My set list was Born to be wild, Mississippi Queen, and Smoke on the water all songs that I truly love!
Here is the commercial that will be airing on TV (if you haven’t already seen it!) but then again it just came out, so maybe you haven’t!

Summer is in full bloom in NYC as the weather has been in the high 90’s for a solid week plus now (thankfully it seems a little cooler at mid 80’s). Since Dada Rocks is about getting out and playing with kids (before I melt in this hot NYC weather)… Its time to break out the stuff for the older kids… Introducing the Whiplash , Its the Waveboard and a scooter mixed into one awesome new outdoor toy (sure if you have enough room like say Google Headquarters you can use it inside).
The coolness factor on this awesome hardware is that once you get your skill level up you never need to touch your feet to the ground like their waveboard you can use your body/legs to keep the scooter continually moving. We’ve been playing with the unit in Arizona and its been a blast for the kids ranging in ages from 7-15… While our 15 year old had a little trouble footing the board due to his size (he’s a giant!) the other 3 kids had no problem and quickly got to a level were they didnt need to touch the ground.
I’m going to put this out there that a child should always wear some type of protective head gear (and maybe wrist guards) to protect themselves. While thats not shown in the picture above. this is more of a do as I say not as I do type warning!
If you’d like to get your own you can purchase one from Amazon [Link] and other major retail locations. Here is a quick promo video showing off the whiplash.
The Whiplash website is loaded with great videos that make it easier for kids to see what they need to know to get their skill level up [Link] you’ll learn to drift, cut and self propel.
