Friday, October 16th, 2009Scandinavian Child
Thursday, December 4th, 2008It’s no secret – I’m a huge fan of Scandinavian Child. My three year old still uses their Svan high chair on a daily basis (we’ve turned it into a “chair”) while my three month old has been sleeping soundly in their Cariboo Earth Bassinet. The look and feel of their designs fit right into my aesthetic: Clean, comfortable, earth-friendly and a touch modern.
Now, they’re representing two new products that I’m totally crushing on: The lillebaby EveryWear carrier and Babycook, the Original Babyfood Maker by Beaba.
Crush #1: I love the ergonomic design of the lillebaby EveryWear. It rides just right on my hips and evenly distributes my baby’s weight, so I can “wear” her for longer periods without feeling a strain in my shoulders or my back. Right now I can only wear her facing me, but eventually she’ll be able to ride forward facing, on my back, or on my hip. Dig those options! Plus, the EveryWear is JPMA certified and meets all the ASTM standards for a soft infant carrier, so you know that you and your baby are in good hands.
Crush #2: In a few months, my daughter will start to eat solids… and I’m all over this Babycook food maker. I admit that with my son, I never got into making homemade baby food. Honestly, I just didn’t feel like dealing with it – it seemed easier to stock up on jars of peas and carrots at the store.
But now considering the economy, not to mention the earth, I want to start making my own baby food in order to save money while cutting down on my carbon footprint by using less jars and packaging. Here’s what I like about this cooker: It works as a steamer, blender, warmer and defroster all in one. Not only is it convenient and compact, it’ll look cute on the counter! And, if I can cut down on things I need to wash, I’m happy. Did I mention that it’s BPA safety-tested, too? Bring on the steamed broccoli!
