It was a big year for little people. Cool play spaces opened, new music studios flourished and trendy shops for kids clothes moved into town. Here are our picks for the 20 best things to happen to Los Angeles in 2014 that made it an even better city for raising kids. (Like that’s possible!)

 

Books & Cookies Reopens

Your favorite children’s bookstore and cookie shop that closed back in May has found a new lease on life. Chudney Ross’ delightful shop that brings together kids two favorite treats has found an even better spot (right across the street from the old one) and the new space was worth the wait. So belly up to the cookie bar to welcome back a joint that is worth the drive from any part of town.
