We can't stop laughing over this "commercial" about a new way to keep kids from napping in the car. If this product really existed, we'd buy it—bet you would, too.

Talk about tough moms — 23-year-old sharpshooter Arianne Prevost of Satellite Beach, FL, pictured here with her daughter Baleigh, bagged an 11-foot alligator with a crossbow. Check out all of the pictures over on our sister site, Field & Stream.

How many of you moms are also hunters?

Did Valentine's Day just creep up and smack you upside the head again? Yeah, us too. If you're scrambling for a last-minute gift that won't make it look like you totally forgot about V-Day, we've got a couple of solutions. These hot Etsy gifts are dad-approved and will get a lot more use than that fugly man-jewelry you keep buying for him. (Who wears tie pins and cufflinks, anyway?)

Remember, lots of Etsy items are one-of-a-kind, so if the piece you like goes out-of-stock, click on the seller's name to find similar cool stuff in their shop.

junk drawers

Parenting.com editor and dad Jesse swears by Etsy seller Junkdrawer's Tiger Briefs ($18.00). In fact, he's been pestering me about including these undies in a roundup since we started Etsy Watch. Heavy duty cotton lycra waistbands make them super comfy and breathable. The colorful drawers are also made from all new recycled and repurposed scrap materials, so they're good for your man and good for the earth.

Pilotdesign clock

Etsy seller Pilotdesign's Honeycomb Modern Wall Clock ($49.00) is the bee's knees. I love the delicate, airy design. It's perfect for sci-fi and nature lovers alike.
