Seasoned mamas: how quickly do babies outgrow their clothes?! For the newly minted mamas here, let us tell you: babies outgrow their clothes so fast it sometimes happens overnight! Grokinder is a rental subscription service for baby clothing that solves that problem by giving you the chance to clothe your little one in a practical, more sustainable way. The subscription offers essential basics for babies such as onesies, pants and comfortable sleepsuits, with sizes from newborn up to 2 years old. Choose between the Lite, Standard and Premium bags, each containing 6-20 pieces of clothing that you can keep until your baby needs to size up – which is when you swap for a new bag!
All the clothes in Grokinder’s collection are sourced from sustainable and ethical brands locally and worldwide, and are mostly organic (GOTS-certified). Brands include Finn+Emma, Sapling Child, Hunter+Boo and more. You can rest assured that the clothes you’ll receive in each Grokinder bag are as clean as they can be – every piece of clothing returned to them will be inspected and sent for professional cleaning before they are rotated out to the next family. Tough stains will be treated, and items that can’t be reused will be recycled.
Oh how we wish this existed when our little ones were still little!
Grokinder’s subscriptions start from $29/month for a Lite bag (6pcs), $49/month for Standard (12pcs) and $69/month for Premium (20pcs).
Enjoy 50% off your first month’s subscription fees with the promo code SASSYMAMA at checkout.
There’s a new indoor playground in town and it’s specially for little ones! The Rocking Horse Playhouse at Horse City, Turf Club is a play space for babies to crawl in a safe environment and for toddlers and preschoolers to be surrounded by age-appropriate toys. Kids can explore their creativity through pretend play as well as engage with other children or their caretakers through play. You’ll get the chance to bond with your baby, or simply kick back and enjoy a break on the sofa with a cup of coffee while meeting other mamas! What’s great about Rocking Horse Playhouse is that they also offer adult-accompanied classes and playdates focused on international languages.
