The Best Baby Stroller

I just found the best baby stroller. It is not very vintage looking. In fact it is the nicest baby stroller I have seen that has a contemporary style.

A company called Peg Perego makes this particular baby stroller, which is very lightweight and portable. They of course have their own website if you want to look at the features in detail but as a mom I can definitely describe it's virtues. The one you want to look at is called the Pliko P3 Classico stroller and it is a high fold up stroller.

This stroller is compact. It is so light and handy you can practially fold it up and put it in your pocket. It is very lightweight so you don't have to worry about straining your back as you throw it in the back of your car. It folds up really small. It reminds me of an origami paper sculpture.

This particular baby stroller has all of the benefits of a much larger stroller including a click on infant seat (that you have to buy separate), a clip on seat and a padded five point harness to keep your precious little passenger safe and also comfortable. The five point harness is crucial to look for when buying a stroller as it helps prevent your kid from falling forward, sideways or any which way should you somehow lose control of the stroller.

The big bonus with this stroller is that it is so easy to fold up as well. None of this kicking it with your foot or straining your elbows as you try to get rusty parts to click together. Who wants to arm wrestle with the aluminum limbs of a fold up stroller.

The Pliko P3 Classico stroller also has a lightweight aluminum frame and resembles an umbrella stroller. You can put it in your purse, never mind your car. You can take it on a train or plane with no worries. It weighs in at sixteen pounds so it can easily be packed away just about anyway.

This beautiful and comfortable designer stroller also has extendable handles that adjust easily to the height of differently sized parents. You simply adjust and secure the handles in one deft move. This really helps if one of you is way taller and is always bending over to push the stroller. Also once you adjust it just doesn't come loose. The stroller is very reliable this way.

It is also a very strong stroller considering that it seems so flimsy when you are folding it up. It can take a lot of weight including extra kids and shopping bags and other cargo. If you have a toddler as well this stroller is equipped with footrests so another kid can jump on the sideboard and hitch a ride just as if they were characters in the movie –Bonnie and Clyde

All About Bath Toys

There is nothing like hearing your baby giggling in the bath. They love to play with toys and it should be encouraged as bath toys help prevent them from developing a fear of bathing.

You don't have to spend a mint to have your baby enjoy bath toys. A simple sponge is one of the enjoyable of bath toys. You can squeeze it over your baby's head to make him or her giggle. Give them the idea about how much fun it is by squeezing water over your own head first. This is a great way to train your child to rinse his or her hair.

A baby will play with anything that floats or that is a cup. The simplest and most effective of bath toys is a plastic cup. They can learn the most basic of skills such as pouring water from one cup to another.

If you are rich you might want to check out the bath toys at sites like The Royal Diaperer. These are sites that specialize in high end bath toys. However they are not necessarily that expensive.

One great bath toy is bath crayons. They look like large crayola crayons. Your kid can draw on himself, on you or on the bathtub. There are ten different colors for about ten bucks. It is an affordable, artistic and fun bath toy.

The Play n' Spell Bath Appliqués by Sassy are also good bath toys. These are the letters of the alphabet. When wet they stick very easily to the sides of the bathtub and bathroom tile walls. They also have that sponge appeal because they absorb water and are deliciously squeezable.

Is your child always complaining about getting soap in is or her eyes. If you do have to put your kid under the shower you might try doing so with a plastic bath visor.

These visors are designed so that water does not pour in your child's eyes. At a reasonable $10.99 this product does double duty as a way of keeping the sun off of your child's head as well.

Of course you can't go wrong with the good old rubber ducky. Most kids have these in their bathroom nowadays. The rubber ducky has almost become the iconic symbol of childhood. Almost everyone had one in their bathroom. Online you can now buy all kinds of different styles of these ducks including devil ducks. These are just what it sounds like – little ducks with devil horns. They make both me and my child laugh and they are a charming variation of the usual yellow squeeze toy.
