ATLANTA, GA – StinkyKids™, (www.stinkykids.com)a fun, fashion-forward t-shirt line, is winning over the hearts of moms and kids with its original look and fresh feel which capture the purity and innocence of children. Founded by Britt Menzies, an Atlanta resident, StinkyKids offers a wide range of 100 percent cotton t-shirts, featuring girls as princesses, ballerinas and in adorable dress-up, and boys sporting swimwear, outdoor attire and playground gear.

StinkyKids offers t-shirts for everyone. With a Caucasian and Africa-American line completed and an Asian line in the works, StinkyKids attracts a variety of demographics, winning the praises of its customers.

“After having two of my own ‘StinkyKids,’ I was inspired to start a small business involving children that would allow me to exercise my creativity and, at the same time, set an example for my kids about the importance of giving back,” explains Menzies. “StinkyKids has given me all of these opportunities. It has truly been an amazing journey!”

The name, StinkyKids, inspired by the age-old expression, “you little stinker,” is known to bring buyers back to their youth and instantly smile when they think about the “little stinkers” for whom they are purchasing the high-end tees.

Ten percent of StinkyKids proceeds go to a Washington, DC area based charity, Books, Bears and Bonnets, Inc.™ which provides gift baskets for adults and children battling cancer.

“I want my children and others to understand my motto: “Always Be A Leader Of Good,” continued Menzies. “I believe in giving back to those who need it most, and working with Books, Bears and Bonnets is just the first of several charities I hope to work with in order to continue to give.”

Menzies, a former Fortune 500 accountant traded in her calculator for an easel and began painting StinkyKids to maintain her passion for art. They were so popular that Menzies decided to transfer the images to t-shirts and StinkyKids was born in August 2006. In its short life-span, StinkyKids has sold nearly 3000 t-shirts to date and in addition to repeat customers, continues to draw in new and excited buyers.
