Dallas’ PBJ: Play. Baby. Juvenile. Offers Innovative Gifts & Gadgets

Dallas Market Center today announced that its juried trade event, PBJ: Play. Baby. Juvenile., will offer the most innovative gifts and gadgets across the baby and juvenile industries for its second show held Thursday, March 27 through Friday, March 28.

The once-a-year event is held in conjunction with the Total Home & Gift Market and Dallas KidsWorld Market, among other shows (March 26-29). Dallas KidsWorld Market draws specialty retailers from across the country and internationally to the 200,000-square-foot marketplace on the eighth floor. PBJ further expands the existing selection of children’s products inside the marketplace, including apparel, accessories, toys, textiles, furniture, bedding, educational gifts and much more.

“The gift and gadget offerings in PBJ, combined with the resources in KidsWorld, create the perfect opportunity for buyers to expand their merchandise mix and increase sales,” said Cindy Morris, COO, Dallas Market Center.

PBJ will feature a unique array of new products from emerging companies and recognized names from PBJ Temporaries and open-daily, permanent resources in The Studio at KidsWorld. Several new exhibitors include:

Bugaboo USA: Twenty years ago, Bugaboo designed the world’s first modular stroller. Iconic, innovative and loaded with functionality, all Bugaboo strollers ensure a smooth and smart ride, and are built to last.

InchBug: MyDrinky™ by InchBug is a two-piece juice box holder that adjusts in height to accommodate small 4-ounce juice boxes, all the way to larger juice pouches. The top locks in the drink to prevent squeezed juice from leaking. MyDrinky is made in the USA, comes in four colors and is BPA and phthalate free.

Infanttech: Always In View is a wireless, video baby monitor designed for use inside the car. An HD camera inside a plush toy transmits images to a color monitor placed on the dashboard of the car.

Little Dundi: Little Dundi’s flagship product, My Early Steps, is an award-winning, soft-structured baby walker. At PBJ, Little Dundi will reveal a line of boutique-quality, charming and sturdy paperboard clothes hangers for babies and toddlers.

Mixie Baby: Mixie is the only self-contained 2-in-1 formula bottle, making feedings possible at any time. Formula and water are stored in separate compartments. For feeding, simply press the button on the bottle’s bottom and shake to mix. Mixie is BPA, phthalate and PVC free and is dishwasher and microwave safe.

pNeo/Baby Shusher: A revolutionary new tool for parents using an ancient, but doctor-tested and approved, technique to help soothe a fussy baby.

PunkinWrap: The only single, made in the USA wrap purposefully designed to function safely and easily as a nursing cover, stroller blanket, sunshade, car seat cover, changing pad, chest carrier wrap and tummy time mat.
