A hero costume for Jojo needs to be high-quality, so that it can withstand multiple washings and daily hero adventures.
Little Capers fit [...]

My preschooler has an active imagination. He loves “heroes” of any variety, and practically lives in costume, aspiring to be a hero himself
I noticed that our collection of costumes was being played with more frequently and consistently than any of our other toys, and I began the search for something better than those [...]

I always wondered why “someone” didn’t make a “baby’s first shoe” that could actually be useful outdoors.
I should have invented Smaller, the distinctly hip line of soft-soled baby booties for [...]
