Scooter Atitude for Kids



Now, here's a shirt that I wish came in my size! This camo shirt for kids has a big, busy scooter graphic on it of a sassy lady on a Vespa. The shirt has shoulder snaps for easier on/off for the little ones. It is a product of ArmyKid a London children's boutique clothing company. ArmyKid's site has it in sizes from 0-11 years, but I doubt that the snaps come on the larger sizes. :) You can also order it in a long- and short-sleeve version. The ArmyKid website but I also found a les expensive, yet likely more limited variety version at Not on the High Street website. Either way, they are both in the UK and shipping charges may be cost-prohibitive. But, check it out for yourself.

You can also get the shirt in another style, although the photo doesn't make it look comfortable.

Smart Baby Bibs


Modified Clothing's new baby bbs are very cute. Just what the budding scooterist-to-be needs! This would make a great shower gift for the expectant parents. It's 100% cotton and comes in two colors. Since Modified is brand neutral, the bib comes in a Lambretta and a Vespa version. Perfect for those "mixed" households. :)

Gymboree Scooter Collection




Thanks to Nicky and Susan for tipping me off to the new Gymboree "When in Rome" collection. It is clothing for newborn to 24 month old kids that has cute scooters on them. If I had a baby, I'd be in trouble. The whole line appears to be on sale at their website. If you don't have a Gymboree near you, logon now and get that credit card ready...I'll have a full report on the items in the next Scooter Collector column.
