Most highchairs are abominations of style and ergonomics, and certainly don't adapt with the child's growth. The Tripp Trapp from Stokke ($200) supports your youngling's back and feet from 6 months all the way up to early adulthood, and features a stylish and sturdy beechwood frame that won't look out of place at your dinner table.

If you have a little Uncrater running around the house, you probably also have their bath toys and supplies strewn all around your bathroom. Get things under control with the Frog Pod from Boon ($30). Not only does it function as a shelf, hanger, and bin for all their bathing necessities, but the detachable bin acts as a scoop for the toys, and has holes in the bottom so the toys can be easily rinsed off after playtime, err... bathtime, is over.

Leave it to the air maestros at Dyson to create a fan with no blades. The Dyson Air Multiplier ($300-$330) uses a fairly ingenious design to suck air into the base, accelerating it through an small aperture in the device's ring and then over a ramp to channel its direction. As it happens, this also causes the air behind and around the machine to be drawn into the airflow, creating a smooth stream of air amplified 15 times, without the unpleasant buffeting caused by the blades of a traditional fan chopping the air. The only downside? It's a $300 fan.

Forget simulated wood grain — Shwood Sunglasses ($95) are handcrafted from actual wood. They're available in two basic styles, the Wayfarer-like Canby and the more squarish Govy, and can be ordered in a variety of different woods, all with your choice of Carl Zeiss lenses. Just remember: these probably aren't the best shades to wear to the beach, water park, or campfire — we're guessing they're at least a little flammable.
