Me Two You

Each time I judge the New York International Gift Fair's Baby & Child division, I start off in the Press Room to see which companies catch my eye. I read the press release from a start-up called Me Two You and I knew I wanted to visit their booth. Me Two You is a new Boston-based, mom-founded company that offers luxurious, American-made reversible baby blankets with satin piping--and with every blanker purchased, one is given to an orphaned child. These children are identified through Me Two You's work with various foster agencies, and I got to watch a video of a "blanket drop-off" in action, showing young children snuggling and enjoying their new blankets. This is one of those things that we moms can take for granted--I'm guessing that many of you, like me, were inundated with baby blankets when your babies arrived. But many children don't get to enjoy this simple pleasure. I commend Me Two You on this unique business venture which gives something back to many children in need. Consider buying your next baby gift there--a blanket costs $72 but remember you are really buying two blankets, not one (plus, the blankets are deliciously soft "minky" fabric). Visit Me Two You.
