Meet Fisher Price's Line of Portable High Chairs

!±8± Meet Fisher Price's Line of Portable High Chairs

When you think of high chairs, you need of messy meals times and hard to clean chairs, right? Well, I have to admit that we wanted something different and Fisher Price's portable High chair was exactly what we were looking for. If you are looking for a small, space saving, easy to clean, portable and user friendly high chair for babies and toddler, well look no further. Welcome to Fisher Price's portable high chair the kind that wasn't around when we were teeny tots.

It is a true space saver since regular high chairs take the space of an extra hair. Its two highly durable clasps are attached to easy to adjust long enough straps which fit under and around any chair. This provides extra safety. Plus, the front straps keep baby secured and can be adjusted for even the most figedy baby or strong willed toddler during mealtimes.

I have taken it almost everywhere from restaurants whose baby or toddler friendly seats are either too low, not sturdy or do not have the click on table attachment which gives a toddler especially his own eating space to make his or her mess.

It has been a godsend for in-between flights when I took my twenty five month old toddler to coffee shops and found that there were no high chairs and wonder what my strong willed toddle would do sitting on a swivel arm chair or a chair without a back.

What I especially like about it is the easy to store feature. Since it only takes the space of another chair, it can be stored in almost any way. There are also no small or hidden parts. The table clicks on and off and there is a sliding try for holding a sippy cup as well as a green plastic top to cover the table attachment when it is not in use. It also provides support for an eight month old baby who is just learning the feel of his or her own chair as well as for the toddler who is well into his or her third year. Don't let the small size fool you!

There are no small crevices or tiny areas that pocket food. Like all of Fisher price products, it is made of heavy duty plastic. There are no holes or openings to keep a parent in an anxiety attack how she or he will clean after the baby.

For only twenty five dollars, this portable high chair gives peace of mind as Fisher Price products has given my family for years past and will continue for years to come!

Newborn Necessities - Gear & Supplies For a Baby's First Weeks

!±8± Newborn Necessities - Gear & Supplies For a Baby's First Weeks

The task of shopping for your first baby can be exciting and overwhelming. It is hard to distinguish between the "wants" and the "needs" and extremely hard to stay focused on your first trip to Babies "R" Us.

Below you will find a list for baby gear, toys, feeding, & sleeping. I do not address what you will need for grooming, diapering or clothing; make sure you add these items to your list.

Newborn Necessities:

Infant Car Seat: you will need a rear facing infant seat. I am a big fan of the Graco Snug Ride.

Diaper Bag: Invest in one that will last, is easy to clean, and easy to organize. Make it stylish, too. A Polka Dot Moon offers many hip choices.

Stroller: Some lifestyles call for a jogging stroller while many parents can get by with a simple umbrella stroller.

Carrier: You will have several options in this category and it is a very personal choice.
Most of my friends swear by the baby Bjorn front carrier, but many love using a sling, especially one with a fun pattern like the ones from Serena & Lily. Personally, I preferred the stroller and the infant carrier inserted in a stroller. As my babies got older, I found I had a lot of use for a frame backpack, but this should really not be on your "need' list as you will not use it right away. If this is your fist baby I suggest waiting until after the baby is born, take baby with you and try on several carries to find what you are comfortable using.

Toys: For the first weeks your baby will enjoy your face the most, but eventually your baby will like some variety. A rattle with bright colors, black white patterned books and anything with a variety of texture are all good choices.

Activity: A bouncy seat or swing will be the prefect solution to giving your baby a new view of the world. Fisher price makes a handy portable swing that works great for home and travel.

Bottle Feeding: You will need to start with 4 ounce bottles and change to the 8 ounce as your baby grows. You may want to invest in a variety of nipples until you find what your baby prefers. If your baby is formula fed it is helpful to have enough to get your through the first week home. Your doctor can advise you on how much this may be or you can use this guide: Multiple the baby's weight by 2.5 ounces of formula.

Breast Feeding: Nursing bras- 3 to 4, nursing pads, nipple cream and a breast pump. There are several options available: manual, personal, electric and hospital grade. Usually the biggest factor when making this purchase is budget.

Burp Cloths & Bibs: Purchase several of these and keep them close by: In the car, the diaper bag, stroller, nursery and kitchen.

Sleeping: Many parents are very eager to get the crib set up before the baby comes home from the hospital, but the truth is, most babies don't sleep in one for a few weeks. If you are going to start the baby in your room, a bassinet, Moses basket or co-sleeper will keep the baby close and safe. A moses basket is a great option if the baby will be sleeping in different rooms. It is easy to transport. As a safety precaution you should not transport the Moses basket with the baby inside.

Other Sleeping items include:

Crib & Mattress: Choose a mattress that is not too soft, a firm mattress helps prevent SIDS.

Fitted Crib Sheets: Have at least 3 on hand to make middle of the night changes much quicker and easier.

Waterproof liners: These help protect the mattress from accidents.

Swaddling Blankets: A blanket specifically designed for swaddling works much better than a receiving blanket. A well swaddled baby often equals a comfortably sleeping baby. Buy 2 to make laundry time easier.

Monitor: For many parents this item falls into the "want" category while others cannot live without it. If your house is not too large and you feel confident that you will easily hear your baby then you will probably not need a monitor. If the monitor will give you peace of mind, then it may be worth the cost.
