A Splattering Look

Pukies Camouflaging Baby Gear

Traveling with kids means many mishaps.

Schedules go haywire; binkies tumble into puddles; outfits get destroyed by spit-up.

They’ll be no worse for the wear if you dress them in Pukies, a cleverly patterned collection of baby gear that hides the most common blobs and slobbers (think kiddie camo for spitters).

The Edmonds-based company makes onesies, bibs, and blankets from super soft soy and organic cotton. Just pick the color palette of their fave food — yellow (for milk), green (for peas), orange (for carrots), or purple (for berries) — and you’re ready to take off.

Bet you’re just drooling in anticipation.

Available at Lemon Meringue, 7720 Greenwood Avenue North, suite 101 (206-297-6071); Boston Street Children’s Everything Shop, 1902 Post Alley (206-634-0580); online at pukies.com.
