Would you like to expose your child to a language beyond his native one? With a collection of ‘international’ clothing, blocks in foreign alphabets and books and CDs in various languages, Il Cocco di Mamma has something for you.
When Donna Bottari’s nephew was born she looked for clothes with an international flavor for him, but had a hard time finding what she wanted. Sensing a need in the market, she launched Il Cocco di Mamma (’he’s the apple of your eye’ or ’she’s your pride and joy’), an online boutique offering baby gifts that promote the world’s languages, cultures and people.
Popular international sayings in Italian, French and Spanish such as C’est la vie!, Ciao! and Que pasa? are featured on buttery soft signature tees in sizes six to twenty-four months. Il Cocco di Mamma’s new organic line of onesies featuring Spanish, French and Italian phrases on the front and English translations on the back include ‘dolce come il miele’ (Italian for sweet like honey), ‘cielo’ (Spanish for heaven sent) and ‘bonjour’ (French for good day - or hello).
Looking for something beyond clothes? Pick up a set of custom made blocks embossed with foreign alphabets available in English, Spanish, Italian, French, Hebrew, Greek and Russian. Or, want a little more guidance with the learning process? Pick up some of your favorite Dr. Seuss classics or browse the selection of compact discs all available in various languages.
