Meal Time. Your child will go through so many stages as she begins to eat solid foods and learns to drink from a ‘real’ cup. There are many thoughtfully designed products to choose from along the way.

High Chairs

There are many options when it comes to high chairs. When you are ready to make a purchase you may ask the following questions: Will my child be safe? Will it look good in your home? Will it be easy to clean? Will my child be comfortable? I opted for the Peg Perego Prima Papa and have no complaints. Here are a few resources to consider when you are shopping for a high chair:

Organic Baby Food

When my son was ready to start eating solids, I simply steamed vegetables, put them in the blender with a splash of water and poured the mixtures into ice cube trays. I would also puree fruit and do the same thing. I would spend an afternoon and make bags full of these treats and then put them in the freezer. When it came time to feed my son I could simply melt or microwave a few cubes at a time. It was very convenient and I never had to worry about what he was eating.

If you don’t have time to make baby food from fresh produce and fruits, don’t worry. There are an increasing number of organic baby food options on the market that are both healthy and delicious.  One nice feature of ordering on Amazon is that you can set up recurring purchases so you can have your stock replenished monthly without having to even think about it.

“Always certified organic, always nutrient rich, no high fructose corn syrup, no trans fats, no artificial ingredients, BPA-free packaging” – I don’t think it gets much better than that.


The Soft Landing

Can’t decide what type of cup or bottle to buy? I felt the exact same way. I love that The Soft Landing offers these variety packs of top selling cups and bottles so you can try them out before you stock up on your favorite. A great baby shower gift idea too.

Bottles & Sippy Cups

When it comes to safe baby bottles there are two options – BPA free plastic bottles and glass bottles. Some moms are still concerned with any plastics and others are afraid of a child dropping glass. Do what ever feels right for you – they are both good alternatives to harmful BPA plastics.

Tooth Tissues

As a new mom I had no idea how to really “brush” my son’s gums and keep his mouth clean.  A baby’s oral health is important and often gets overlooked.  Check out these great dental wipes for babies and toddlers as well as these tips for early childhood dental care.
