Fresh: Let It Snow!
By this point in the winter, your children have probably lost multiple hats, scarves and gloves.
Maria Callahan of Chicago, mother of twins, knows the feeling—that’s why she invented Snowman Scarves, which include a hat that connects to the scarf with a loop and a snap, and mittens made to fit into pockets built into the scarf. The whole package is made in Chicago, using high-quality fleece.
Snowman Scarves, approximately $45 at The Country Cobbler, 1708 Glenview Rd., Glenview, 847-724-3131, Ellen’s on Elm, 841 Elm St., Winnetka, 847-441-5240, and snowmanscarves.com
