I was 6 months pregnant strolling the streets of Rome with my husband on our belated honeymoon. We came across a man who'd I'd thought asleep, yet as we passed he perked up, joyfully pointed our way and exclaimed, "Ahhh, Bambino!!!" If everything had gone as I'd dreamed I'd have brought more back from Roma than a love for gelato, sparkling water and this memory. I'd be speaking fluently to my bambino, and he in turn would be uttering his first phrases in a foreign tongue. Thankfully, Donna from Il Cocco di Mamma was inspired to share her roots with all children, bilingual or not.
Her signature tees [$22-$24], available in conventional and organic cotton are snuggly soft and beautifully made. Each tee sports a popular international saying, from Ciao! to C'est la Vie. The bilingual beauty doesn't stop there, if you need a toy to go with your tee, be sure to peruse Il Cocco di Mamma's collection of toys. You'll find a wonderful selection of international books and CD's as well as timeless wooden blocks [$35] available in Italian, Spanish, French, Greek, Hebrew and Russian.
