Win a Gorgeous Baby Sling for as Little as $5

We're raffling off 2 of our slings, the Chinese Lilac Silk Mei Tai and the Summer Breeze Silk Ring Sling. Each season our owner chooses 2 slings to keep for herself, as marketing tools. She's made her new selections and is grudgingly parting with her Spring/Summer accessories.
If you order more than one ticket for either or both slings, you will have that many chances to win. The raffle will be held until December 13th. On the 13th a winner will be randomly chosen for each of the slings.
Buy as many raffle tickets as you'd like. Buy 1 ticket for each sling, 10 tickets for 1 sling, 1 ticket for you and 1 for a friend, whatever you'd like! It's all going to a good cause (several good causes, actually). The proceeds from the raffle will be split between the 3 charities to which we donate. Read more about our charities here.

Interesting Info
As always, we’ve been busy adding some very interesting content to our site. Here is a sample of one of our new articles:

Why slings are better, for you and baby, than popular front carriers


Did you know evidence has been found at ancient dig sites to prove that the oldest human invention is not the wheel, but the sling? This means that the first human inventor was almost definitely a woman. Women have known for literally millions of years, in every continent in the world, the convenience, comfort, and versatility of the sling.

Research has shown that the popular front carriers are not good for the development of a newborn’s back, hips and pelvis. In this position, all their body weight is compressed onto the base of a spine that is not yet ready to bear this weight. And the legs are held open at an unnatural angle, possibly causing problems with pelvic alignment and future walking. A sling, however, holds a baby in a very similar position to what they held in the womb. Their weight is distributed across the entire body, as they lay curled in the sling. Then, as they grow older they are able to assume as many as five or more positions in the sling, including comfortable and discreet breastfeeding. And you are able to continue using most slings up to an amazing 40 pounds, making it the most versatile baby carrier there is. You can’t even use most front carriers until 8 pounds and by about 12 pounds they absolutely kill your back. A sling’s weight is distributed across your entire back and shoulder, making it the most comfortable carrier available. I was easily still slinging my two year old son through my eighth month of pregnancy. Plus, it is the only way to carry twins. You can carry both newborns together in one sling, as they are used to from the womb, then later each in their own.

Plus, slings are better for your back. Rather than placing the full brunt of baby's weight on your upper back, the sling evenly distributes the weight across your entire back, shoulder, and upper arm. This is why front carriers can carry up to about 20 pounds, but slings are usually good for 40 pounds.
