We may or may not have squealed when we discovered that Lauren Child (illustrator of Charlie & Lola) had illustrated Astrid Lindgren's classic, Pippi Longstocking. We're rooting for a remake of the ill-synched 70's foreign movie series.
SubscribeThe Hotspot originally started out as a monthly-or-so feature written by our favorite storytellers. Usually products or services were highlighted that tickled us. Over the past year delightful innovations and introductions in the maternity and parenting space have increased, and we feel we need a space to share our discoveries with you. Daily news stories on parenting also inspire us to communicate with you. As such, the Hotspot is now the Alpha Mom daily blog. Finally!
From time-to-time we will feature products that we like. Since there is no pay for play, we only feature products that excite us. However, we do want to know about new product and service introductions and innovations so feel free to drop us a note at contact@alphamom.com.
