GOO-GOO GREED

IT'S not enough to dress the results of the recent baby boom in Dior and Bur berry and push them around in Buga boo strollers that cost as much as a car. Now there are posh new nursery rhymes to recite to the spoiled sweeties. In "This Little Piggy Went to Prada," Amy Allen rewrites childhood standards with a designer bent. "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star," becomes "Twinkle, Twinkle Diamond Ring." But our fave - to the tune of "Frere Jacques" - is, "Louis Vuitton, Louis Vuitton, Burberry, Burberry? Nappy bag dilemma - Lulu, Kate or Anya? Shopping spree, buy all three." Talk about training consumers in the crib.
