Sleepykins // Birthday Bunk Beds

By Rachel Fox Kipphut, Contributor Leave a Comment

“Happy Happy  B I R T H D A Y   Eva Dear.  Happy days will come to you all year.  If I had a wish , that wish would be …. A very Happy Birthday to you from me!”

#ExtracuteEva just turned S I X !  What is this girl all about?  Bunk beds, dolls , books , her very special chalkboard wallpaper, traveling and  Hello Kitty. This cutie has more than an extra chromosome, she has spunk + MOXIE !  We decided to create a room for Eva that plays to her strengths, her talents, fosters creativity and is filled with all of her favorite things.  Last winter, Eva was hospitalized for a few weeks with Pneumonia. At the time, Eva was sharing a room with her little sister Elsie.  It wasn’t until the two were separated (during this time) that we noticed a huge personality difference in the girls.  Eva, being alone with one of us at the hospital became a little more confident, overly funny and goofy! A side to her we had never seen before.  Elsie became more independent around the house, and didn’t go out of her way to get attention.  Now don’t get me wrong, these two are very close as sisters, at times inseparable.  It became clear that Eva ( being the older sister) needed her own space and her own room.  That’s when we started planning moving Ethan out of his nursery and moving him in with Elsie, giving Eva her own room.

It took a little over a year to get Eva’s room just right.  She had been in a larger toddler bed and with her growing legs, it became necessary that we look into bigger beds for Eva. This past Christmas, we visited Grandma + Grandpa in South Carolina.  They had set up some old Bunk Beds in the spare room for the kids to sleep on.  We were certain that Elsie would be the first one to the top, but she wanted nothing to do with the bunk beds.  To our surprise, Eva climbed right on up and slept on the top bunk the whole vacation and then took it over again for Easter break.  She loved being up there, and her confidence shined as she knew her usually adventurous little sister didn’t want to climb up.  We decided, Birthday Bunk Beds for Eva! We not only found a new-in-the-box pink bunk bed set on Facebook Marketplace ( for under $100 ! ), but a similar mini bunk bed set for her dolls ( also found on Facebook Marketplace).  These bunk beds would be the perfect birthday gift for Eva’s 6th birthday, and the final touches on her new big girl room.  A special room for a very unique little girl.

Featurekins // MINIMUHUU

By Rachel Fox Kipphut, Contributor Leave a Comment

 “Children are free spirits, nomadic in the sense that they move so lightly through life. When they nestle down to sleep I want them to be wrapped in a cocoon of softness, nature and love – with a whisper of adventure in the dreams to come.”  A closer look at MINIMUHUU  .

“Minimuhuu was created in 2015 with the intent of creating stylish, durable, high quality, organic bedding specifically for children.
Our products are inspired by cultural symbols and aim to capture the essence of nature.  Minimuhuu is located in a French bastide in the city of Aix-en-Provence, which is enchantingly known as the city of a thousand fountains. At Minimuhuu, we make duvet covers, cushions, and bags in soft, luxurious, pre-washed linen especially for children. We believe that safe, ecologically friendly materials are the best gifts for your child. MINIMUHUU is a  French atelier , producing the highest quality linens for babies and children.
Inspired by Native American culture and embellishments, the Minimuhuu collection features traditional emblems of protection, journeying and wonder, patience and strength.
Created by Spanish designer and stylist Monica Durban in Aix-en-Provence in southern France, Minimuhuu reflects Monica’s perfectionism, authenticity, passion for nature and joie-de-vivre. The Spring-Summer 2017 collection is inspired by Native American symbols and the expression of ideas through images. We have chosen two symbols this season: arrows and stars. Arrows are a popular symbol, denoting direction, protection, and travel. Our star pattern is styled after art created by Native Americans after witnessing the especially astounding Leonid meteor shower of 1883. On our products, stars are a symbol of magic and wonder. The SS17 color palette, from light grey to soft pink, is gentle and fresh, with timeless, elegant tones that fit into any child’s room. Minimuhuu offers both solid colors and fabrics printed with subtle copper stars or arrows. Mix and match to create your own style!” – Minimuhuu

Copyright © 2023 · Babiekins Magazine | A Trendsetting Kids' Fashion Magazine and Online Community for Parents and Children Alike · Since the Southern California birth of Babiekins in 2010, the magazine has grown from into an internationally-recognized print publication with a global circulation and now a thriving online community. We are more than a kids’ fashion magazine. We search everywhere for inspiration, and go beyond trends to bring you fashion, style, decor, design, books, DIY, parties, and playthings. Our readers look to us to keep up with the best and most up-to-date concepts in the children’s market worldwide. We have an eye for quirk. We’re high-fashion, but we value whimsy over tradition. Playful childhood is more important to us than making kids into copycat adults. We believe life is beautiful, life is valuable, and life changes when you see it through the eyes of a child. We seek to transcend skin color, language and zip codes and bring out the real, wild, magical creativity inherent in every child. And behind Babiekins is an optimistic team of mothers-turned-editors, working from home, often with our own little babiekins climbing on, under and around the desks. We want to encourage you, and challenge you to see something different — something special — in yourself and in this world we all share. Welcome to Babiekins!
