Family-owned baby stores and boutiques in Michigan in which to buy nearby

Let’s face it, babies can look adorable in just about any outfit parents so gleefully style them in (such as ridiculously large flower headbands).

Even though babies make for the cutest fashion models, finding local stores with the latest child product trends – beyond just clothes – can be hard. So where in Michigan can you buy nearby for your little tikes?

Here’s a list of family-owned baby and children boutiques located throughout the Mitten. So as you shop for your own family, you help out another with each adorable purchase. And it’s great for Michigan’s economy! That’s a win-win-win.

 Tot to Teen Village – Kalamazoo

Let the kids tag along on this shopping trip! Tot to Teen Village was founded in 1937, and it remains a family-owned store with a kid-friendly ambiance. Living up to its name, inside the store is a tiny village with “buildings.”  While you browse its selection of baby gear, furniture and clothing, the kids can go to the firehouse play area, complete with a slide and toy train set. Or, take them to the “jail” to try on new clothes in dressing rooms disguised as cells.
