Today's sale items include our No-Slip Playard Sheets, Supersize Toddler Blankets, Satin Pillowcases, and Waterproof Mattress Pads.

New Fabrics and Product Updates!

We have 2 new fabrics added to our website for the fall/winter 2010 season.
Sweet Hearts features sweet little hearts in all different colors in a patchwork type design. The color scheme includes pinks, purples, a dash of turquoise and yellow - a great fabric option for those girls who don't want something that is just pink. Our second fabric is Monkeys/Teal which is the same pattern as our previous fabric Monkey/Yellow, just with a beautiful teal colored background. This is a great neutral fabric for those wanting something other than just the standard green/yellow prints that are usually available in neutral items.

For product updates, after a long search, we finally found a new supplier for our satin fabrics (our previous fabric mill stopped producing the satins we were using). So the good news is that our Satin Extra Pillowcases are coming back! For those of you who are fans, make sure you preorder them now. For those who have never tried satin before, it's a great luxury and is said to help with hair tangles while sleeping. Rumor also has it that sleeping on a satin pillowcase helps reduce face wrinkles as well! I doubt our toddler customers are worried about that, but some of our adult customers may want to try it out.

We are also very close to announcing the date of arrival for our crib sheets. We finally have a design done and samples tested, etc. We will be cutting and sewing the crib sheets very soon so if you have any requests for which fabrics we should carry, let me know. Thanks again for checking out our blog!

For Immediate Release - July 22, 2010

Mr. Bobbles’ Blankets announces re-branding of products under BobbleRoos™ name brand

GAITHERSBURG, MD – Mr. Bobbles’ Blankets, owned by RS Kids, Inc., announced today the re-branding of their baby bedding product line under the new brand name BobbleRoos™. The new name better reflects the growth of the product line to include more than just blankets, and positions the brand for future growth.

“We started out over 7 years ago making only our signature blankets. Over the years, our product line has expanded to include other popular products like our toddler pillows and playard sheets. We have plans to grow our product line further and wanted a new brand name that can grow along with our products,” said Renee Sirulnik, CEO and founder of RS Kids, Inc. “Many new customers see the current name and assume we still make just blankets, or think that the products are just for boys (because of the Mr.). The new BobbleRoos™ brand will allow us to branch out. In addition to new growth, we have a very loyal customer base – I want to make sure to note that other than the company/brand name change, everything else remains the same – the same designs/products, same ownership, same quality, same sewing.”

BobbleRoos™ offers unique yet practical gifts for babies, toddlers, and preschoolers. All BobbleRoos™ products are professionally sewn on a small scale in the USA using high quality fabrics. BobbleRoos™ current product offerings include:

 Toddler and Youth Pillows
 No-Slip Playard Sheets
 Toddler size blankets
 Baby swaddling blankets
 Security blankets
 Nap Mat Covers
 Burp Cloths
 Washcloths
 Gift Sets for Twins/Triplets

Upcoming product growth plans include the addition of a crib sheet. “We have started incorporating the name change in our new tags that are sewn into our products. We have also started updating our packaging, website, Facebook page– everything else will remain the same. I am really excited about unveiling the new logo and brand name. Originally, Mr. Bobbles Blankets was named using my first son’s nickname. Now that I have two sons, I have the chance to incorporate both of my kids into the new name. As most parents can understand, you can’t do something for one child without also doing for the other!” said Sirulnik.
