What Mom can't live without:

"The first few months of their lives, my kids would only sleep when swaddled. This swaddler (the SwaddleMe Traveler) was a lifesaver because, unlike traditional styles, it can be used safely in a car seat, stroller, or swing."
-- Heather, Erie, PA

The iParenting Media Award-winning RayShade UV Protective Stroller Sun Shade by Kiddopitamus and Company protects kids when they're out and about! Place RayShade over any canopied stroller, jogger or pram. As the angle of the sun changes, you can adjust RayShade forward or back to provide your child the right amount of sun protection.

Summer 2005

New Parent

A safer sleep Blanket. As tempting as it may be to wrap your newborn in plush blankets to go to sleep, experts believe that skipping the soft bedding helps reduce the risk of SIDS (sudden infant death syndrome). On chilly nights, the BeddieBye Zip-Around Sleep Blanket keeps baby warm while eliminating the possibility of fabric covering her face. Adjustable shoulder tabs ensure a snug, safe fit, while lightweight, flame-resistant fabrics and the sleeveless design reduce the risk of overheating (another suspected SIDS culprit). Baby already asleep? Simply unzip the BeddieBye, place baby in the center, and zip it up around her. (The zip-around feature makes it great for quick diaper changes, too.)

TinyDiner Portable Placemat, with photo:

Road Trip Essentials: “I never leave home without the TinyDiner.  It’s a rubber placemat that sticks to tables and has a little tray at one end to catch dropped food.  When my child is done eating, I wipe off and roll it up.”

The Wall Street Journal

Kiddopotamus and Company’s PiddlePad Waterproof Seat Liner makes clean up easy.

5th Edition

Baby Bargains

Recommendation of The Great Baby Cover Up Fleece Warmer: "Okay, you aren't supposed to put baby in a car seat with a bulky coat. But what if you live in, say Maine and it's currently 10 degrees outside as you read this? Try a cover-up that fits OVER the car seat and hence doesn't compromise the seat's safety. One of our favorites Kiddopotamus's "Great Baby Cover Up" Fleece Warmer. A multi-purpose cover-up that can be used as a front carrier warmer, stroller warmer...or for car seats."

Baby Bargains

Coverage of the Snuzzler Complete Head & Body Support: "Even though an infant car seat is built to accommodate small babies, newborns may still need some extra support. That's where a seat insert comes in, providing additional head and side support. One of our favorites: Kiddopotamus's "Snuzzler" an infant insert that has an adjustable/detachable head support, all made of washable fleece. When baby outgrows the infant seat, you can use the insert in a larger car seat of jogging stroller to provide extra support and warmth."
