Don't know how I missed this, but just came across some kid trends for 2011 that were identified earlier this year by Parents magazine on the fourth hour of the "Today'' show. See what you think:

1. Look for little birds, perhaps inspired by the Twitter craze, to adorn nursery decor, toys and children's clothes.

2. Jeggings, which cross a jean look with a legging fit, are hot, hot, hot.

3D. No longer limited to the movie theater, the magazine notes that 3D images are everywhere: latptops, cameras, video games and more. However, this comes with a word of caution. Nintendo has noted that too much 3D viewing can be harmful to the eyes, particularly for children under age 6.

4. Video chatting. Skype, Parents notes, is great for moms and dads who travel and want to keep in touch with their kids. And it's a godsend for families with military parents serving far from their homes. Wonderful, too, for grandparents and other relatives who lives states away.

5. Add to the list spooky toys, perhaps inspired by the "Twilight'' fervor. For little kids, there are stuffed animals like cute bats -- I know, those two words are a weird combo -- and picture books.

6. Movie remakes of the classics: Think "Gnomeo & Juliet."

7. Finally, what Parents call "Mommy and Me Beauty,'' which are lines of lotions and other skin-care products for mom and baby. Some are organic. One among them, California Baby.

What would you add to the list?
