Reviewing Toys That Help Your Children Grow
Now in terms of mouth, I mean the action of placing a SAFE toy inside the mouth for the purposes of licking, gnawing and biting. What I mean by SAFE include products marketed as infant teethers that are sold by reputable companies (i.e. Sassy) and in reputable places (Target, Babies R Us, Walmart). These items [...]
Many parents have often said to me that because their children don’t have actual teeth yet, they never thought to brush their gums. At any rate, it’s a great idea to start brushing your child’s gums, especially around the same time that you begin to feed them pureed foods from the spoon. Infants often gag [...]
For months I have been in and out of Babies R Us, perusing the feeding aisle, looking for items for my feeding therapy work as an occupational therapist, as well as searching for cool and innovative products to use with my now 9 month old, Gavin. I’ve recently had the opportunity to review a few [...]
Keri talks with Carla, the designer of the Wubbanub. The Wubbanub was designed initially as a soft cuddly attachment for the Soothie pacifier. The Soothie pacifier is very commonly distributed to parents for their infants throughout well baby nurseries, special care nurseries and the NICU. Wubbanubs come in a variety of different animals including a [...]
For hours I stood in the aisle at Babies R Us it felt like looking for the perfect spoon. Much to my surprise, apparently I was standing in the wrong store! For Christmas this past year, my mother found these unbelievable BEABA spoons at Williams-Sonoma and purchased them for Gavin. I know this is strange [...]
Being a full time working mom who happens to specialize in feeding therapy, I only have a few hours of the day to spend with Gavin, one of which is typically dinner. This post highlights one of my most treasured products for our mealtimes, the SVAN High Chair. When considering purchasing a high chair or [...]
As today is Mother’s Day, I thought I’d share one of my favorite places that all mothers, grandmothers and parents should be aware of! One week and a half ago, we were invited to several events at Isis Parenting (formerly Isis Maternity) a well known, and respected group of stores in the Boston area, to [...]
I apologize ahead of time that many of my posts over the next few weeks will most likely be infant related. When I return back to work after my maternity leave in two weeks, my mind should think in a broader perspective, but for now this cute little man is my reality! In an effort [...]
Boppy Pillow- $35.00 When infants are born, one of the first skills they begin to develop during the first few months of life is called midline development, which is the ability to bring their hands to their mouth, or their hands together at the center of their body to play with their fingers. Many people [...]
True to my baby registry Monday post (though it’s a bit early this week!), the hidden gem of the day is the Stokke Tripp Trapp Chair. I was first made aware of this chair during my daily work as an occupational therapist. As many children have generally weak core strength, this ultimately impacts their eating, [...]
