Blinky
Studio Blinky is another amazing mom-owned boutique based out of Gainesville, Florida. Blinky has the coolest and probably most unique kids pieces ever. The beaded berets are to die for! Their one of a kind acrylic baby mobiles are so special and the toddler craft aprons could not be cuter. This small shop specializes in handmade which we love!
York Park
📍 Highland Park
4948 York Blvd Los Angeles, CA 90042
York Park is right off of York Boulevard in the heart of Highland Park. The fully enclosed and gated park is ideal for ages 5-12 but little ones tend to really enjoy the musical instruments, from wind chime poles to colorful drums and a xylophone! There’s even a free library for kids for little book lovers. Bonus points for Donut Friend being down the street!
