Summer is almost here and getting out and about, traveling and spending time with the family in your own backyard are where memories are made.

Cool Little Ones, is cool little moisture wicking clothes for all day play and they are perfect for Summer, travel or really, anytime.

Cool Little Ones is inspired by the idea of little ones playing outside, being creative and exploring all that the world has to offer.

During the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, Glenna Devonport did what most were doing and went on multiple walks a day with her kids. Despite trying to take early or late walks before it got too hot, Glenna noticed that both her boys were always sweating. She thought, “If we as adults are wearing moisture wicking, cute workout clothes, why aren’t our Little Ones?” There sprouted the idea for a cute, comfortable and moisture wicking kids clothing line!

Cool Little Ones clothes can be worn on any outdoor adventure including the beach, pool, lake, sport practices, hiking, camping, playing at the park and are made for All Day Play! The clothes have cute designs, are easy to pack for trips, stretch, take up little space, are comfortable and they dry extremely fast!

The designs take the idea of a simple rash guard and elevate it to make it the most versatile piece of clothing in your Little One’s closet.  From  basic tees, rash guards and shorts to onesies, dresses and headbands, your kids will be cool and comfortable this Summer!

Cool Little Ones are the perfect addition for any outdoor occasion and most of the items are UPF 50 Sun Safe. All of the products are  proudly manufactured in the United States of America. Future goals include to have 100% of our clothes UPF 50 Sun Safe and to make more clothes out of recycled materials…and to expand across the country in 2024!

Since its launch, Cool Little Ones has captured the attention of raving moms, local media and specialty retailers. Glenna even was the  2021 Small Business Grant Recipient from Austin Woman Magazine.

Don’t Forget the Snacks!

Festive Chickpeas 

No photo description available.

Going on a hike, road trip or on a new adventure?

Keeping healthy snacks handy for fuel is essential and Festive Chickpeas are the PERFECT go-to snack for adventurers!

Chickpeas are a great on the go snack, pre or post workout snack or salad topper, because they are low in calories and high in fiber, protein, and essential vitamins and minerals. They are also a great source of plant-based protein, which can help support weight loss and overall health. Chickpeas are versatile and can be easily added to a variety of dishes, making them a convenient and healthy option for those looking to make healthier food choices. And according to a recent story, just 1/2 cup of chickpeas has major benefits for your heart, gut and weight.

Sure, you could make your own crunchy chickpeas at home, but who had the time for that?

And they will not come out as good as Festive or with the flavor varieties! Just grab and go!

Festive Chickpeas has reinvented the chickpea, unhusking it, using the chickpea hearts (halves) to give it big crunch and even bigger flavor! All while being packed with protein and unbelievably good for you! These small little legumes are bursting with buttery flavor and give you that crunch you have been craving, making them a great on-the-go snack. In addition, Festive Chickpeas also add flavor and crunch to soups, salads, mac n cheese, and so much more. And with six different flavors, you can mix it up every day of the week.

Festive Chickpeas have ZERO preservatives, are non-GMO, soy-free, gluten-free and are 100% vegan (except BBQ) to accommodate every snacker’s lifestyle. Aside from being plentiful with protein and nutritious, they’re exploding with flavor. Each pocket-sized bag is abundant in fiber, iron and potassium, has 10 grams of protein and no trans fats. The crispy chickpeas are dusted with ocean-fresh sea salt – making them an easy and equally satiating alternative to potato chips.

Festive Chickpeas are celebrating snack time with fun flavors, including Sour Cream and Onion, Sweet & Smoky BBQ, Ranch, Mild and Fiery Spicy and Sea Salt, for those who like to keep it simple.
