Well, in all honesty it will be the parents (who have a heavy wallet/purse) who will love the store! If your little one is in the "who's whoo" of the sand pit, then he or she would lose a great deal of playground cred if they weren't decked out in the latest from Bambini. They stock a specific (and exclusive) list of brands that ensures quality and swanky looks that will make all of the toddlers dressed in last seasons bibs green with jealousy....that and they may also be sick from eating dirt.

Kids Who is a great little kids' clothing store with fun, appealing clothes and accessories at…read morereally good prices. I particularly love the little girls' tutu skirts (only $10! Pity I couldn't get my niece into one in a pink fit), and gorgeous summer dresses. The dresses range from $10 to $35 for the larger sizes and different styles, and are nicely made. The boys' clothing is simple and hardy, which are its two main purposes in life. There are some cute boys' clothing sets including a t-shirt and denim shorts for $19.95, and plenty of t-shirts for $10. What initially caught my eye were the Angry Birds towels. Those birds are everywhere! But I can think of a few little boys who would love an Angry Birds beach towel. Then of course there is Tinkerbell and other Disney towel designs for the girls, and even Justin Bieber. Great. There are other cute accessories like bags and hats, most with similar designs to appeal to children. I just love picturing how cute my little niece would look in those dresses.

What a stunning array of lovely items for the little ones to wear. A bit of a luxury at some of…read morethese prices, but gorgeous stuff nonetheless. Set away from the busy main street of Melbourne Street it is in a spot where there is usually some parking around and always some place you can go and have a drink afterwards. The styles are common but the details are not, there are some very lovely fabrics with a lot of mixes that feature just a touch of unnatural blended with cotton, like polyester usually and the designs are often replicates what mum or dad may be wearing; it's almost a designer shop for tots with the prices reflecting that, although the quality and price match quite well and it is not super expensive, just high end. These days you can pay that little extra if you know it is decent quality and the kids are going to show some respect for the wear and tear as well. You know, a nice dress or shirt is a nice one, and a muck about one is a muck about one - once that distinction is clear things should last. Not a shop where I would buy for other peoples kids unless I know them very well. A great shop to bring your own if they are at that age where shopping is a new novelty and you want to teach them manners and respect. You can also check things out on line, cost included and then come in and buy. There's lessons in that.

This place screams show-parents…read more Who gives a flying fox what a kid wears? First of all, who are THEY trying to impress? Kids don't care what other people think of them. It's the parents who care. They're trying to show them off like dolls. It's terrible. I'm telling you, it KILLS me. Second of all, it takes away from a child the future experience of looking back at the shitty clothes they were made to wear by their parents. Instead they get to look back and say, 'Oh, gee, look at me. I'm like a fashion magazine.' The only way I can justify this place is for birthdays, weddings or any other special events.

Nothing but the best in name brand sneakers and the latest styles to suit any under age connoisseur. Before we go any further yes designer brand names do cost more than your average run of the mill sneakers, but they're so cute! Plus a range of clothing is also stocked from a tiny 0000 to twelve, socks, nappy bags, various accessories and more of this and that. The shop is spacious so the little ones can run around without causing too much damage and test out their new rocket charged booties.

Seed is a welcoming little shop on the Parade that specialises in baby stuff. Cue squees…read more It's immaculately decked out both in terms of product and shop fittings....but surprisingly that's what appeals to me the least. It's too polished: I prefer a little bit of mismatched homespun charm when it comes to kids stuff (and life for that matter). What can I say, I'm a Frankie girl through and through. Prices aren't cheap either: you're looking at $30 - $40 on average for tee or romper. That said, you can find some adorable stuff for the cutie patooties in your life, especially around sale time when they have up to 50% off. I nabbed some lovely chunky knits and adorable all-in-ones for my niece at good prices. They also stock women's clothes from what I can tell but it's really not my personal flavour. As well as all the usual tiny clothes, Seed have a good range of toys and accessories - I especially like the wooden toys and woodland critters. They also had a fox mask om sale the last time I dropped by: does it get any cuter?

If you're comfortable paying fifty dollars for a jumper that your child will outgrow in three to…read moresix months then this is the place for you. This is the sort of store that makes it's money from the Keeping Up With The Jones philosophy. Oh, your kid is wearing Wayne Cooper Junior? Check out the price tag on this baby! Seed is a beautiful store with beautiful clothes. I pop in to buy gifts and the sales are excellent and happen regularly, so regular less competitive parents also have the chance to make their kids look Seed fabulous. But I don't buy clothes for my daughter from here because she thrashes them! How could I let her paint and skateboard if she was wearing forty dollar tights! It's impractical parenting. But birthday dresses that get worn once and then handed down? Sure. Great service too, the girls never seem to notice when I go in there and scoff at the prices and then buy the cheapest sale item in store. Bless.

If only I was eight again…read more.. Kiddy House Boutique is a little girl's dream (and boys too but only for haircuts) where she can be pampered and pandered too. This is the only place in Adelaide where kids can have pamper parties from makeovers to having a private disco. It's been going strong since the shop opened on Glen Osmond Road well before the shopping precinct became popular. There are three packages to choose from for that special occassion: Glitz Girls Glamour Spa, Pamper Princess, Pamper Hollywood Pop Star, catering to ages 4 and up. Yes they can be primped and preened from head to toe, from haircuts and styling to manicures and pedicures. How is that for service and being spoilt rotten?! The shop also exclusively stocks one off designer clothes in various sizes from babies to 12 year olds. Clothes are sourced from Australia, America, France and Holland, are quality made and organic materials used. For the difficult little one in your life who won't have their hair cut at any cost, they might just change their minds once they see the awesome novelty seats in the salon!

I am so glad that I found this little gem of a clothing store, because despite its location just…read moreoff Rundle St, its prices are really reasonable, even cheap and that is a big tick in my books. Pari stocks an odd array of different items. There is a babies and children's section which has cute little pink clothes and fabric teddy bears and little painted bags. Then there is a range of quirky jewellery including brooches made from bottlecaps, where were cheap at around $15.00. The clothes are really well priced and good quality. Unfortunately, a lot of them don't have sizes on them so some trying on might be in order which is easily done by the two small change rooms at the back of the store. The dresses and tops were all nice and very colourful and the sale rack was amazing with some skirts and shorts down to $15.00. Definitely considering making a trip back there and buying up big!

Pari has been standing within the Ebenezer Place district (Vardon Ave) for some time, and in my…read moreopinion the store is a classic sort of women's clothing boutique, which is targeted primarily to those in their 20's and 30's. The clothes here are rather on trend, however not entirely typical. There is a healthy balance between in-style and same old. The fabrics are often delicate, sheer and lace-like. Hence Pari pieces are usually found in a range of soft and feminine colours. I like Pari because I find that the items fit rather nicely into the clothes likely (slash desirably) found in my wardrobe. The décor is also nice, with a black chandelier, white walls and (floating) floorboards depicting a pretty and fresh yet feminine sort of vibe. Another perk is the price, with many items here including dresses, tops and shorts are only around the $25 range, and it is possible to shop via the Pari facebook page upon request. There are also shipping options unavailable,including free shipping Australia wide for purchases over $50. Pari is also found at the Gilles Street Markets, and many exclusive finds to be discovered! Additionally for those Pari fans left wondering, after a short hiatus over the Christmas break, Pari is recently back open for business. Lovely.

This cute kids clothing store and hairdressers opened in 2010…read more It offers cute baby and children's clothing, but the highlight is the kid's cuts. They are one of few places in Adelaide that have a fun car children sit in while the hairdresser works her magic. Kids are mesmerised by cartoons and before you know it, the trim is done. As many parents will a test to, children's hair cuts are notoriously challenging. This service makes a difficult, but necessary job that little bit easier. While you're there you can pick up clothing for your own or perhaps a cute gift for a birthday or newborn. You'll find Kids Where on Glen Osmond Road Eastwood in the traditional discount shopping area.
