Stork Craft Hoop Glider and Ottoman
I still love the glider that I bought when my first son was born 7 years ago. I think this is one of the most functional purchases you can make when you are pregnant. When you no longer need it in the nursery, you can move it to the family room. This model has ample cushioning on the arm rest, which provides comfort when your baby falls asleep on your arm. There are also pockets on the sides so you will always know where the important items are. Finally, the ottoman is included, which is a good thing because you will definitely want to put your feet up at night!

Bonsai Book Caddy
We think the Bonsai Book Caddy is a great option for your child. It makes it so your child has to really work to throw them on the floor, and yet it is easy for him or her to get the book she is looking for on her own. You don't have to worry about drilling it into the wall like tall bookcases. And we love the simple and modern look to it. It assembles without tools and is wholly designed and manufactured in USA from North American materials.

I love the look of this Owyn Toy Box from Mod Mom. This is definitely furniture that could find a use in nearly every room in the house. The nice and simple theme could complement nearly any nursery. This toy box is 30 inches wide, 15.5 inches high, and 14 inches deep. It's made from eco-friendly birch plywood and painted with non-toxic paints. It has Mid-Century Modern style tapered legs and the wood veneer "branch" is drawn and cut by hand.

Does your child want to sit back and relax just like you? If so, you may like the Toddler Recliner. It looks just like the adult version, and it's available in five colors. It's great for reading, video games, watching television, or just copying Daddy as he watches the game!

Legare Bookcase
I've been hunting for a bookcase for a while now. I want one for all the books we've accumulated, preferably one that fits into our tiny nursery. While the blueberry and strawberry colors aren't a perfect fit for us, the look of the Legare Bookcase certainly is. This bookcase is only 18 inches deep but 59 inches tall. It's easy to put together and has adjustable shelves. If you need a bookcase in a small space, this might be a good option for you.

notNeutral Tetra 1 Collection
The notNeutral T4 collection was inspired by the Greek prefix tetra
(meaning 4), and the 80s computer game, Tetris. Each piece in this collection uses 4 drawer sizes to create interlocking storage structures.
The Tetra 1, shown above, is a 10 drawer unit made from the four drawer sizes in a 5-row, 2-drawer wide configuration. It is made from birch euro-ply and features one brightly painted drawer (with a choice of colors) and three dark sable painted drawers. The remaining drawers are finished in the natural birch euro-ply.
The accessory tray, available separately, can transform the top into a standard sized changing table. And when your child grows out of his nursery, you can continue using the Tetra 1 as a dresser, or in a linen cabinet, or even as a storage unit in your home office.
If you like the Tetra 1, be sure to check out the Tetra 2, Tetra 3, and Tetra 4.

Woody Chalkboard Table
I think this next product, the Woody Chalkboard Table, would be a ton of fun for any child. The surface is a chalkboard with a bowl in the center to store chalk. It would be great in any play room! If your little one likes to draw with chalk but you are concerned about the elements or don't have a good place for him to draw, this is a perfect alternative!

Panton Junior
When I was young, I loved a little rocking chair that I had. It was made for toddlers, and I found it so exciting to have a piece of furniture just for me. If you want toddler sized furniture for your little one, here's a great chair. The Panton Junior is 25% smaller than the original and has a fun shape, smooth curves, and has color that won't fade over time. If you have a few, they also stack easily. It's available in two colors, orange and white.
