I was lucky enough to receive a pair of these cool mittens. The idea is one of those “why didn’t I think of that”! The mittens have an extra long cuff to keep them up and the child warm—very clever! These modern and hip mitts have the most darling embroidered designs and are really well made—using really soft and quality fabrics. Today you get a chance to win from mimiTENS!

These are wonderful! Hope I get a set. Love that each line supports a charity. Super cool. One of them is the Yonge Street Mission
Adorable!
I am visiting via SITS and hope you’ll stop by and enter my giveaway too.
Very cool, I think they would actually stay on while playing! I am personally affected by a family member with autism, and am grateful for their support of the Geneva Centre for Autism.
That is awesome that they support charities, both the Geneva Centre for Autism and the Younge Street Mission are wonderful causes. I wish I had heard about these mittens sooner. My family has been stationed in Alaska for the last 3 winters and my littlest one has just turned 2 and I cannot tell you how much these mittens would have come in handy. Thank You for letting us know about all these great companies.
So sweet – and it’s great that they support the Yonge Street Mission! :o) Hooray for Canadian companies!
How cute! I love that they promote their support for charities like Geneva Centre for Autism. I wsh more companies did! Thanks for the chance to win.
Pick me! Thanks for your note that “A portion of sales from this yearโs collection will benefit the Geneva Centre for Autism.”
These are so cute. I think most of us are trying to be more responsible consumers, and you offer a lot in that scene: eco-friendly materials, support of charities (like Geneva Centre for Autism), local charity support, and products made in Canada. Also, it’s precious to involve your daughter in your designing. ๐
What a great idea. We were in the snow last month and my daughter would get so upset when the snow would get inside her gloves and mittens. These sound like the perfect solution. And know they support the Geneva Centre for Autism is really an added bonus! My best friend has two boys with autism so this is such a close to my heart cause.
I am happy to see that Mimi Tens supports the Geneva Centre for Autism. My daugher went nuts over the owl pair of mittens. She loves her woo hows!
I love that you support Yonge Street Mission, giving many hope in a hopeless world.
These are great! They support the Geneva Centre for Autism and the Yonge Street Mission – so nice to see a company giving back! Also, made in Canada = extra win!
These look like such an ingenious idea. Love it!
They support the Geneva Centre for Autism.
how lovely are they!
Geneva Center for Autism. Such a growing problem.
