As the weather gets warmer, families are looking to enjoy more outdoor activities. To give families protection against biting insects, including ticks and mosquitoes, OFF!® has a range of insect repellent products.

Note: I received product samples for review purpose. Any personal views expressed are always 100% my own.


OFF!® is on a mission to help adults and kids protect themselves before that first bite from a mosquito or tick with a routine call PREtection.

PREtection is the act of preparing ahead of time to help prevent mosquito and tick bites. The proper PREtection ritual involves applying insect repellent after sunscreen, as a final step in people's skin protection routine.

PREtection focuses on prevention as the best protection against bug bites because insect repellent is most effective when applied before you’re exposed to pests.

As a pioneer in personal insect repellents for over 50 years, OFF!® is proud of the proven effectiveness of their products. The SC Johnson Center for Insect Science™ is one of the world’s largest privately owned entomology research centers, studying insect-borne disease prevention and developing effective product solutions for consumer use.

ABC Kids Expo, organizers of North America’s juvenile products gathering, wrapped their 2025 show in Las Vegas, where thousands of new products from strollers to clothing and furniture were featured.

During the expo, the ABC Kids Expo team noticed a few top trends in the industry.

7 Trends Coming Out of ABC Kids Expo

Animal Prints are everywhere!

From strollers to clothing to bottles to carriers, we’re seeing everything from leopard to zebra prints in a variety of colors.

Tech is becoming a bigger part of this world

Connected Home products are emerging across multiple categories. New bassinets with built in tech options, sound machines that turn on when they sense your baby is crying and monitors that interpret a baby’s cry are just a few of the ways to make parenting a little easier.

Rust/desert colors are in

A strong focus on deep reds, yellow, oranges and browns, as well as Western prints. From clothing to swaddles to pacifiers to strollers these colors were everywhere.

Longevity is more important than ever

We’re seeing strollers that turn into trikes that turn into scooters. Car seats that go from infant seat to booster seat. Even bottles that turn into sippy cups and pouch holders. Products are no longer one and done, they’re built to last.

Grandma chic is taking over the category

Checkered patterns on gliders, storage boxes for the playroom or long travel, even Liberty of London clothing patterns. It’s everything grandma loves made modern.

Travel products continue to evolve

From fold up strollers that fit in the overhead bin of an airplane to luggage that kids can ride on to FAA approved chillers for breast milk, travel has never been easier.

Licensed characters are here

Peanuts, Batman, World of Eric Carle, Disney, we’re seeing them all across multiple categories from wagons to strollers to clothing to feeding.


“We continue to see companies both big and small stepping up their level of innovation,” said Aaron Pederson, President, All Baby & Child, ABC Kids Expo. “New products are solving problems, helping to streamline the day to day and overall making parenting a little easier.”

This year’s ABC Kids Expo tripled its footprint from last year and featured over 350 exhibitors at the sold-out Mandalay Bay Convention Center. The ABC Kids Expo is held yearly in Las Vegas, NV.

Disney has debut “Disney Jr. Let’s Play!,” a global campaign designed to inspire preschoolers to experience the joy of play through Disney Jr.’s characters and stories.

Backed by clinical expertise from the Child Mind Institute about the importance of play in preschool development, the “Disney Jr. Let’s Play!” campaign taps into the playful spirit of Disney Jr. favorites like “Bluey,” “Marvel’s Spidey and his Amazing Friends,” “Mickey Mouse Clubhouse” and “SuperKitties,” which are all available to stream on Disney+.

Continuing throughout the year, the campaign will feature additional community-based activations including:

• A Disney Jr.-themed roller-skating experience from Disney Music Group at over 400 roller rinks across the country
• A “Disney Jr. Let’s Play! Party” at Disney California Adventure Park and Downtown Disney District later this summer
• The popular “Disney Jr. Live On Tour: Let’s Play!” traveling concert tour, now in its international run
• “Disney Jr. Let’s Play!” YouTube shorts, designed around preschool routines that encourage play and laughter.

Spanning original content, consumer products, music, live events, community activations and more, the campaign is designed to bring meaningful activities and experiences — inspired by Disney Jr.’s playful storytelling — into communities and the lives of preschoolers around the world.

Also announced: a first-of-its-kind collaboration between ESPN’s “Take Back Sports” initiative, Disney Jr., and national nonprofit Every Kid Sports to offer sports grants to families with preschoolers who are facing financial hardship.

These grants, available through the Fall 2025 Every Kid Sports Pass, will provide access by covering fall registration fees for qualifying applicants.

This marks the first time that the program has focused on preschool-aged children, who are often trying out sports for the first time.
