With Spring in the air (it has to be, we just know it!), we're ready to freshen things up around here — and in your home, too. From a fun new line of bath products that will get your kids as clean as can be and fresh new kids' bedding collections from two of our favorite kids' decor stores to a new book from one of the funniest authors we know, we think you'll love these great finds to help revitalize things in your home this month. Read on for our must haves for the month of April!

The Pigeon Needs a Bath!

The Pigeon Needs a Bath!

Available today, Mo Willems's 11th-anniversary Pigeon book (Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus made its debut on April 1, 2003) is just as funny as you'd expect. In The Pigeon Needs a Bath! ($17), Pigeon refuses to get washed up — he took a bath last month, so why does he need one again?

Avon Naturals Kids Rio 2

Avon Naturals Kids Rio 2

Getting kids into the bath just became a whole lot easier, thanks to Avon's new collaboration with Rio 2. Timed to coincide with the release of the film, Avon Naturals Kids is introducing a Rio 2 collection that not only features natural ingredients that are safe on little ones' skin, but also stars one of the movie's most popular characters, such as Blu, Jewel, Gabi, Luiz, and Rafael, on each bottle. The collection, ranging from $1 to $5, includes a full range of mango- and coconut-scented cleansers, including a body wash/bubble bath, shampoo/conditioner, a detangling spray, and the most fun product of all: body paint that kids can roll on themselves and then wash off in the bath!

Pottery Barn Kids Elyse Collection

Pottery Barn Kids Elyse Collection

All we could say was "wow" when we laid eyes on Pottery Barn Kids' latest line of babies' and kids' bedding. This Spring, the kids' room decorating emporium is truly upping their game with more sophisticated patterns that scream timeless rather than temporary. Among our favorite designs is the new Elyse Duvet ($25-$99). Indian inspired, the elephant and paisley print is perfect for dressing up little girls' sweet rooms with some grown-up style.

Evenflo Platinum Symphony DLX All-in-One Car Seat

Evenflo Platinum Symphony DLX All-in-One Car Seat

This month, Evenflo introduces one of the most innovative car seats to hit the market: the Platinum Symphony DLX All-in-One Car Seat ($250). The easy-to-install seat (which converts from a five-point harness seat to a booster), features NASA-developed Outlast technology, a temperature-regulating fabric that keeps kids comfortable during both hot and cold weather, making for a more enjoyable ride for everyone. But perhaps my favorite feature on the seat are the seatbelt pockets that store the lower portion of the harness when the seat's not in use, because any parent who has fished around for those pieces while her child is in the seat knows how frustrating (and hot!) it can be.

Stay tuned for a full review of the seat on the site later this week.

Jonathan Adler Infants' Circus Socks

Jonathan Adler Infants' Circus Socks

Our hearts did a quick little flutter after discovering that Jonathan Adler, our favorite happy-chic designer, is now designing socks for the littlest toes out there! Available in three styles, like these Infants' Circus Socks ($14 for three pairs) as well as fruit and animals, the Turkish cotton socks are one of the sweetest things we've ever seen for modern tots!

100 Things to Do Before You Grow Up

100 Things to Do Before You Grow Up

We love lists, and while the idea of a bucket list for kids sounds a bit odd, there's nothing morbid about National Geographic Kids' upcoming 100 Things to Do Before You Grow Up ($10). Available beginning April 8, this inspirational list of things to do within the first 6,570 days of your life (before turning 18!) is one that both parents and kids can refer to when the calendar shows an empty day!

Itzy Ritzy Nursing Happens Infinity Breastfeeding Scarf

Itzy Ritzy Nursing Happens Infinity Breastfeeding Scarf

Fussing with your nursing cover in public is a thing of the past, thanks to the new Itzy Ritzy Nursing Happens Infinity Breastfeeding Scarf ($25). Just throw on the scarf (it's available in three colors and wraps just like a traditional infinity scarf), and head out for the day. When you're ready to nurse, unwrap it, sling it diagonally across your body, and you've got your very own nursing cover — genius!

Oh Joy! For Nod

Oh Joy! For Nod

We love it when good people make it big! And that's exactly what's happening to Joy Deangdeelert Cho, better known online as Oh Joy!, one of our favorite lifestyle bloggers. This month, her collaboration with The Land of Nod launches, and it's adorable! The Oh Joy! for Nod collection includes kids' bedding (like this Sundae Best bedding set, $24-$129), crib sets, rugs, plush toys, and more!
