In this kid-centric spinoff of our celebrity shopping column, we’re focusing on stuff that some of our favorite famous people rely on to make parenting a little easier, more fun, more stylish, or some combination of the three. For this edition, we talked to actress Shay Mitchell — who recently launched Rini, a children’s skin-care company — about the books, water bottles, and walkie-talkies that she and her 4- and 6-year-old daughters can’t live without.
