The August 2008 Children's Club: Newcomers

As you know, we always like to showcase the new, or newer lines (two years old and younger) along with the well established companies in our ENK Children's Club (August 3-5, 2008) coverage. As they say, "Make new friends but keep the old; one is silver and the other is gold". With the Beijing Summer Olympics just completed, it makes this phrase even timelier. So, with that in mind…here are some 'silver medalists' that caught my eye and distinguished themselves this time around.
