Essential Baby Gear for the Entire Family

Having a baby is one the most exciting things that any parent can experience. Much emphasis is placed on ensuring a healthy pregnancy and safe delivery, but mom can easily look forward to tons of baby gear that meet these goals as well as are fun for her.

Arriving home from the hospital gives way to an entirely different way of life and accommodating the new baby. This is why baby’s first crib is so important – it’s the first piece of furniture you’ll use, and babies sleep quite a lot.

When baby isn’t in the crib, he’s probably on the go with mom and dad. A great baby gear kit will always include a diaper bag or backpack to hold all the baby’s needs for a day on the town.

To transport the baby, consider an over-the-shoulder sling or carrier. You’ll also need a convenient stroller to make quick trips to the grocery or department store for diapers and formula.

Not only do the parents of the new baby benefit from modern baby gear, but any caregiver will appreciate a stockpile of tools to make their job easier.

Little ones grow so quickly that we can’t believe they’re trying to walk within a few short months. Investing in a safe and sturdy bouncer/rocker combo not only encourages physical activity and muscle development, but also keeps baby safe when you must put him down.

When the baby isn’t sleeping, he’s probably eating or taking a bath. Thus, a special tub and high chair will be in order for the perfect package of baby gear. Consider the ease in use of the tub, as well as storage while not in use.

High chairs should be safe and easy to clean as well. However, don’t forget to include bottle warmers, baby-safe utensils and bowls. Bibs are also a huge part of mealtime, and should be included in any stock baby gear package.

Eating, playing, sleeping and…changing. The diaper changing table is also an important investment and handy piece of furniture that must be included in the nursery. Also remember to coordinate the hamper so it matches the décor of the nursery, as well as a comfy rocking chair for breastfeeding moms.

Practical toys that are age appropriate should also be included in any baby gear kit. These will stimulate development and learning habits, as well as occupy baby with healthy choices in activities. Include a sturdy playard and toy box, too.

Toy boxes come in an array of styles and themes, and can be personalized to match any nursery the parents have in mind. Over time, this box will become increasingly full of several toys from friends and family, and may even become a family heirloom.

Ensuring that the new parents have all the necessary baby gear to make their transition and life easier after the arrival is essential. A variety of baby gear available today allows every addition to the home to be stylish and coordinating to invite the entire family to enjoy these first years together.

So it’s perfectly OK to buy the best you can for your baby, and have all your friends exclaiming over how smart he looks wearing that designer label! The good thing is, you can even sell it off on eBay and get back some of the money you spent after the baby has outgrown it!

Summer Fun And Swimwear For Your Little Tot!

Summer’s finally here! It’s time to get some swimwear for your little one and head out to the pool! Babies love playing in water, and this is the best season to take advantage of this! Even babies who are just five weeks old love the water. Whilst swimming before the two month immunizations was not advised before, it is now! You can ask your health professional, but you’ll most definitely get a go-ahead!

Pool Diapers!

The first order of the day is to get a swim diaper for the baby. Swim diapers are either worn under other swimwear or worn alone. With a synthetic outer coating which is waterproof and a cloth lining inside, these diapers are machine washable and will deal with any solid waste released by the baby in the pool, efficiently taking care of your embarrassment in public pools! The chlorinated water can deal with urine, so you need not worry about that.

Swimsuits!

Similar to older kid’s swimwear, baby swimsuits consist of trunks or full body tanks for your baby boy. For baby girls, the bikini or one-piece style is the trend! Baby swimwear comes in cute designs and sun hats, which look adorable on the baby! Look around, but don’t expect too much for babies who are less than three months old.

Baby wetsuits are ideal for swimming since they are designed to keep your baby warm and comfortable in the water. Looking very professional and built to fit over the swim diaper, they are just the right thing for your future swim champ!

Baby floatation devices!

Floatation devices come in all shapes and forms today: inflatable swimsuits, inflatable boats, inflatable tubes, rubber rings, water wings and so on and so forth! Most floatation devices are built for kids who are more than a year old. First rule of the pool: Don’t leave your baby alone, even if he or she is in a floating device. Moreover, don’t accustom your kids to inflatable rings, since it’s going to be much more difficult for them to learn swimming without!

Sunscreen!

There is a special sunscreen for babies with a very high sun protection factor to protect your little one’s skin. A good waterproof sunscreen is essential for the baby, so apply it liberally. Sun rays are even more dangerous now, with the holes in the ozone layer, and can reflect off the water on to the skin of the baby. Cover the little one’s head too, for she is likely to complain if you make her wear a hat! Sunscreen is an essential part of a baby’s swimwear. Also, keep the hat handy for the moment after your baby is done swimming!
