swank|review & giveaway: HappyCrawlers Leg Warmers

UPDATE: Congratulations to Christina Brundick!!  She won 3 pairs of HappyCrawlers leg warmers of her choice!


I'm the type of mom that does extensive research for anything I buy for my kids - especially Lil J.  Miss S is much older so I mostly put my trust in the kids clothing stores that they will have exactly what she wants.  But for Lil J, there is so much variety - enough to make a mom go mad!


Which is why I was happy when a cute little company came to me!  I didn't have to do any research.  I didn't have to spend hours looking for the perfect one.  HappyCrawlers contacted me!

Well, it was sort of a fluke.  Desi, the owner of HappyCrawlers, tweeted me on Twitter and we just sort of started connecting through the Twitterverse.  I checked out her website and was pleasantly surprised to see a variety of the cutest leg warmers for my Lil J.  And I was so happy to see that they are also universal - meaning they fit older kids and even adults.  Miss S would be so excited!

HappyCrawlers leg warmers are a wonderful addition to any baby or toddler's wardrobe - especially when babies start crawling.  They help protect their knees from hard floors and prevent them from chafting.  Plus they are super stylish and come in many different colours and designs.  Older kids can wear them to make a cool fashion statement.

I was generously sent two pairs of Happy Rainbows (one for Lil J and one for Miss S) and Areas of Argyle (for Lil J) to review.  They are very, very soft with lots of room to grow and stay up, protecting Lil J's knees.  Both kids couldn't wait to put them on for our impromptu photo shoot!

Here are Lil J and Miss S monkeying around:

All of HappyCrawlers leg warmers are made of a high quality blend of cotton, polyester and spandex.  As I said earlier, they are super soft to the touch so I have no doubt that they are comfortable for my Lil J.  He didn't want to take them off and he's usually picky about what I dress him in.  For a 2 year old, it's hard to imagine but that's my Lil J.

Here's another shot of the kids:

Miss S even found a new way to wear her leg warmers:

And here is Areas of Argyle:
