IKEA Wooden Toys!

IKEA is not only affordable and modern, but their children’s line of toys is wonderful!  Made from wood and non toxic paint, these toys are wonderful for the family who wishes to raise their child “batteries not included” and are just great, simple toys overall!

Infant Tubs Vs the Kitchen Sink

T

his is one of those items that I just can’t wrap my mind around.  While I understand it probably makes daily life easier, there really is no use for it once babe can sit up unassisted (and refuses to lie down in an infant tub anymore!)  My mom bathed me in the sink.  Once I reached toddler hood I she transferred me to the bath tub.  Scattered through out my photo albums are evidence of this.  How embarrassing.  I digress.  This is an item you’ll probably use for about 6 months or so then you will be faced with realization you just spent $30 on an item that you will most likely have to toss or give away.

If you feel uncomfortable bathing your child in the sink, I suggest you purchase a bus boy tub.  They are just deep enough for a comfortable infant bath, and when baby has outgrown it, it can be used for storage! Shown is picture of a 7″ restaurant tub, selling for around $8.
