Baby Bouncers and Seats There are so many bouncers and seats for babies, some of them with special features to keep your baby occupied and some of them with contemporary design. We went for a Winnie the Poo baby bouncer with vibration. Isabelle used to spend a lot of time in it when tiny, watching me doing some housework and even having a few naps when she was really tired. If you after something trendy check the Bloom Coco StyleWood or Coco Plexistyle. They come in many attractive colours. Or what about something more musical? Rainforest Open- Top Cradle Swing has twelve different songs, six smoothing swing speeds and two swinging motions (front-to-back and side-to-side). Another great invention for your baby is a Bumbo seat. It is an excellent support for your baby when learning how to sit up as well as when you start weaning your child (around 6 months). On a very similar basis there is a product called Cushi Tush, it also has a tray that clips off and on allowing you to place your baby in and out easily.
Baby Play
There are so many toys, that it would be very difficult to advice which ones are the best. I have done a lot of research and came up with this list, mostly very interesting toys and some of them have been awarded by parenting magazines as best toys (baby activities) for babies 0-12 months. All ages:0- 6 months:
18 - 36 months:- Trunki
- Bilibo Rocking and Spinning Toy
- Wheelybugs- these are multi- directional, hand- made and designed to promote self- confidence, spatial awareness and gross motor skills.
- LeapFrog Brightlings Exploration Station
- this toy is suitable for ages 6- 36 months. It can be transformed from a baby mode into a toddler mode ( 5 languages, counting 1- 10, etc.) - Discovery Kaleidodisc Lightshow & Activity Centre- it can be attached to a cot and provide a magical light up musical show and when the baby is older it can be transformed into a fun floor or highchair play centre.
- Fisher Price Amazing Animals Music & Motion Choo Choo Train- the train has two modes to play and lights up with fun sounds when moving.
- Mothercare 7-in-1 trekker- there are many different features for different age groups (suitable from 6 months)
