Our Grand Prize giveaway item at our July 18th All About Baby event here in Charlotte, NC is none other than a brand new BabyPlanet Sahara timi & leslie stroller!  It’s gorgeous, it’s compact, it’s going to be the talk of the town!  Before our event {BTW, we started a Facebook page for AAB too, check out all our amazing sponsors} and for those of you not local to us, we wanted to introduce you to all the new designs from the 2010 BabyPlanet Stroller collection; there’s 7 and they are all stunning!

Above is the Sahara timi & leslie I mentioned that we’re giving away on July 18th right in the Belly Elan shop for AAB.  I had the ultimate pleasure of receiving this giveaway item at my house to look over and put together for our winner.  Yes, I actually said that putting this stroller together was a “pleasure”.  I’ve had, I don’t know how many strollers over my 9 years of parenting and it’s always been pure torture putting plenty of them together.  This BabyPlanet stroller went together in minutes, the boys even helped, and it’s so easy to open and close…and of course looks so darn stylish and fresh!  Two fav features that stand out, for how compact the stroller is {which is NOT a bad thing, compact is good…bulky is bad}, the storage space underneath is awesome and LARGE.  AND, the beautiful stroller liner is reversible, that’s both unique and ever so convenient since kids are messy and have a fun habit of destroying stroller liners with stains and gum and leaky diapers and lollipops.  And sometimes, mommy or daddy just need a style change…simple flip the liner over and it’s like you have a whole new stroller!

The other new collection from BabyPlanet is the Endangered Species line like the Monarch Butterfly below {3 total in this line}.   “At Baby Planet we take our role of preserving and protecting the planet for future generations very seriously.  Although there are so many avenues through which conservation efforts can be championed, we have chosen to do our part through raising awareness of animals in peril around the world. With this in mind, we have developed the newest line of our signature Endangered Species strollers to focus on and draw attention to the plight of three animals which are threatened by extinction. Unfortunately, Monarch Butterflies are suffering the consequences of the destruction of their roosting grounds by logging operation, and the chemical destruction of the milkweed plant on which the female lays her eggs.” BabyPlanet makes an annual contribution to organizations fighting to preserve and protect endangered animals.  Feel good about your purchase with them.
