The gently used and open box children's goods reseller launches over 7,000 items for sale, including clothes, furniture, and toys, providing affordable options to combat inflation concerns.

CHICAGO - December 1, 2022 - (Newswire.com)

Kidsy, an online marketplace for parents to buy and sell gently used kids' items across all categories in the U.S., announces a major growth milestone, with over 7,000 products now for sale since its April 2022 launch. This milestone makes Kidsy one of the fastest-growing resellers for products in its category, indicative of a rapidly growing secondhand shopping market as parents seek out cost-effective options as inflation hits a 40-year high.

The U.S. secondhand baby and kids products market is expected to reach $12.8 billion by 2030, driven by advancements in technology and a surge in popularity of secondhand marketplaces.

"Over the past few years, I've witnessed a seismic shift among my peers in the way they shop," said Shraysi Tandon, CEO and co-founder of Kidsy. "Gone are the days of clamoring for every item from the hottest new designer collection; that seems so passé today. Parents are now showing off their secondhand purchases and building closets and nurseries out of their lucky finds. There's an appreciation for the nostalgia and history attached to secondhand goods. It's so much more enchanting."

Kidsy offers a wide selection of products by eliminating the geographic limitations of a social media marketplace or a local secondhand store. Users can browse through items, including clothes, toys, books, bath items, diapering, travel gear and nursery essentials, and filter their search to find what they are looking for from sellers across the U.S. They are able to message sellers directly, ask questions about an item and even make them an offer, all through the Kidsy platform.

"At Kidsy, we believe the closets and nurseries of the future are circular. The rapid growth of Kidsy is testament to the boom of secondhand shopping, and we expect this trend to continue as more people recognize resale as a powerful solution to wastefulness, not to mention a solution to high prices and inflation," said Sinan Sari, co-founder and CTO of Kidsy. "With the holiday season here, we're excited to provide a resource for parents to find affordable options during an often cash-strapped time of year, and resell some of the gently used items they no longer have a use for."

For the holiday season, Kidsy is offering all customers a $5 coupon redeemable on the Kidsy marketplace between now and Dec. 31, 2022. To take advantage of the promotion, use HOLIDAY5 at checkout. 

Kidsy's parenting blog, answering Google's most frequently asked questions about kids, from feeding and sleep training to educational activities, is now live.

Learn how with new Done-In-A-Weekend Series video

BEATRICE, Neb. - December 1, 2022 - (Newswire.com)

As winter sets in, now is a great time to tackle projects that will make backyard living better next season. For many, no backyard party is complete without pizza, fresh out of the oven. And while traditional grills are notoriously poor pizza ovens, it's relatively easy to build an outdoor pizza station. With that in mind, Exmark has partnered with landscape designer Doug Scott on a new Exmark Original Series, Done-In-A-Weekend Projects video, "How to Build a DIY Outdoor Pizza Station." 

In the video, Scott gives homeowners guided instruction on the build process, and full build instructions are available for free download as well.

Tools required for the build include a miter saw, a screwdriver or drill-driver and appropriate bits, a tape measure and marking pencil, as well as eye and ear protection for each worker. An assortment of 1 1/4-inch, 1 5/8-inch, and 2-inch screws are also required to assemble the outdoor pizza station.

The outdoor pizza station is built from a variety of pre-cut lumber, including 1x2-inch, 1x4-inch, 2x2-inch, and 2x6-inch boards. Specific quantities and lengths of each board type are included in the instructions, and any lumber yard and most home improvement stores can cut the boards to the needed lengths.

Once materials have been purchased, the build process is very straightforward. The frame of the pizza station gets built first, then the bottom shelf is assembled within the frame. The top is assembled next, with the back being attached and assembled to complete the stand itself. Finally, the oven platform is constructed, which is where the oven will sit.

All that's left is to set up the pizza oven and start cooking up unforgettable memories in the backyard.

View this and each of the new Exmark Done-In-A-Weekend Series videos on the Exmark Backyard Life site. There, additional Backyard Life content can be found, including Backyard Smart, Dream Yards, Living Rural, and Prime Cuts, as well as backyard living content from a wide range of influencers.

CLEVELAND - December 1, 2022 - (Newswire.com)

Patrice Catan, the creative entrepreneur behind one of the largest bridal boutiques in the country, Catan's Fashions, is launching a podcast in partnership with Evergreen Podcasts.

The Tales from Behind the Veil series will hone in on Patrice's approach to customer service while educating retailers on delivering dream-come-true experiences, through practical business advice and heart-warming stories. She is joined by veteran Evergreen producer Leah Haslage, who has produced for top shows like Pit Pass Moto, Banking Transformed, and Simple, Interrupted - A PetDesk Podcast. Haslage also hosts her own show, Weddings Unveiled, on the growing Evergreen podcast network. 

"I'm thrilled to be hosting this podcast with Evergreen, engaging an audience of listeners with the good, the bad, and the funny," Patrice says. "Tales from Behind the Veil will 'unveil' what I've learned from the ground up by being on the floor."

Her podcast debut follows more than 40 years as a creative designer in the bridal industry, an experience that she credits to her father, founder of Pat Catan's Craft Centers. One of the largest craft retailer stores in the world, Catan's was later acquired by the Texas-based Michaels Co. in 2016. In 1980, Patrice opened Catan's Bridal, once the country's largest bridal store with 54,000 square feet of dressing rooms, gowns, and 27 seamstresses.  

"It's a joy to welcome Patrice, a legend in the bridal and craft industry, to our family of shows made to delight and inspire creators," says David Allen Moss, Evergreen's Chief Creative Officer. "She's served thousands of brides over the decades, earned countless awards within the marketplace, and has been a featured speaker at events across the country. What could be more inspiring?" 

Patrice joins Evergreen as the company remains on track to becoming the largest independent podcast network in the world. Producing only four shows in 2017, the company now publishes 192 shows across 12 genres. Through original production, branded podcasts, and podcast advertising, Evergreen specializes in content distribution to a broad audience. 

Recently, Patrice was commissioned by Cleveland's Western Reserve Historical Society to replicate and assemble bridal headpieces. The National Bridal Association awarded her Retailer of the Year (The DEBI Awards). 

Tales from Behind the Veil launches Dec. 1, 2022, and will be available to stream via the Evergreen network on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Pandora, Stitcher, and iHeartRadio.

LANCASTER, Pa. - December 1, 2022 - (Newswire.com)

Kelly Mahler, OTD, OTR/L, a Pennsylvania-based Occupational Therapist and author, is excited to announce the release of her new interoception book and instructional resource, The Big Book of Interoception Games.

The Big Book of Interoception Games is a compilation of 53 fun and playful activities for learners of all ages. The book focuses on the core concept of interoception—one of the hottest topics in neuroscience—and the sense that allows us to notice and understand internal body signals and emotions. This book and its activities invite learners to notice mindfully how their body feels during playful activities and are of particular interest to educators, therapists, and parents, especially of learners with so-called 'challenging behaviors' or diagnoses such as autism, anxiety, trauma or ADHD. Each game provides several variations—making for hundreds of playful interoception learning ideas. The interoception book can be a positive practice strategy to accompany any of Kelly Mahler's interoception books and resources; however, it is also a productive standalone resource.

"I'm so excited to share my discoveries about interoception with professionals and families. Interoception, the sense that helps us feel our feels and manage them, can affect the way we view what is often called 'challenging, disruptive or purposeful' behavior," says Mahler. She continues, "I want to inspire people to think differently and discover the root cause of the behaviors we may observe. Learn how to dig deep. Ask the right questions. Implement an interoception-based approach to behavior and self-regulation. I believe this can provide more effective, meaningful and affirming supports so our clients, students, and loved ones can flourish."

Kelly uses interoception research to discover more about the diversity of the human experience and applies this understanding to help people thrive in their daily lives. In addition to directly supporting clients and their families, Kelly is actively involved in various interoception research projects, serving in different roles, including principal investigator, graduate research mentor, dissertation chair, and content expert consultant. She enjoys collaborating with a variety of established and up-and-coming researchers to explore numerous topics. If you are interested in interviewing Kelly regarding her interoception research and client experiences, visit kelly-mahler.com/kellys-research.
