Sunglasses and toddlers/kids - are you ready for summer holidays?

As an adult you understand the importance of wearing sunglasses on sunny days, as being adult you feel uncomfortable while you are exposed to sunlight. Well, the same feel the little once. Looking for the information about the importance of sunglasses I have found a really good article on Google search. Dr. Greene explain that: ¨The cells of the lens of the eye are never replaced; the proteins of the lens are never replenished. The lens cannot repair itself; damage accumulates over a lifetime.¨ and excessive exposure to sunlight during early childhood, can be harmful once you grow up.
I don´t want to alarm you, because I understand that every person is aware of this and take on its own responsibility to avoid this to happen. How about children? Have you ever thought or was scared about too much exposure of your child? As mum, I always think about this, even on sunny winter days. I always insist my toddler wear a hat or a cap to be protected, put him a cream, but I thought that sunglasses is too early as these will annoy my baby, and till now I haven´t bought him any.
Last week, thinking about a getaway and summer holidays, I remembered my fears about exposure of my child to sunlight, and I began to look for a pair of sunglasses on Amazon and not only there. I was quite surprised about the great supply of sunglasses for toddlers, even for babies. My biggest priority was to buy sunglasses that won´t annoy him, and won´t be damaged after first 2 uses... and of course to be of the highest protection category possible. See, what I have found.

Kids sunglasses for an affordable price, good looking, very easy to use, protective and Damian doesn´t want to stay without them. I think it is a great choice.

Toys everywhere.

I know that people who have babies know how it is to clean your house and in less that an hour all the toys are everywhere in the house and like you haven't cleaned before. In our case is the same, nothing special :), they are babies and they want to play.
Till this week we had no toys for playing with them in the bath. We were looking for perfect ones some days, actually we were thinking to buy these kind of toys some time before, but with our super busy life we were postponing this and also we were thinking that he is little and won't know how to play with them. But after having these toys I can firmly tell you that you have to buy to your child these toys earlier than we've done.
The advantages of buying these toys are: the ones that we bought are small enough and he can hold in his little hands, there is a lot of fun while bathing (I advice you to buy bathe toys in case that your child doesn't like bathing), these toys are very colourful and you like to look at them and help to develop motor skills. Damian likes bathing, but with toys it is somethig special, and he is so amuzed that he is smiling and shouting all the time we are bathing him.
Disadvantage: in case that you bathe your child in the room (as we do) be prepared that all the room will be full of water, because he is playing with toys and drizzle almost all the water that you prepared for him. We are thinking to prepare the bathroom (to heat bathroom specialy for Damian) and to bathe him there.
Below you can see some pictures of these lovely toys.

6 things we were looking for in a highchair

Yes.... we finally bought a highchair for Damian, somebody will tell that is to early, somebody that is too late... but it is never late or soon if you think it is the right moment for your family.

A highchair has to come into your house to help you and not to bother you. I love Google search as there you can find a lot of useful things for you, and every question that you are aware of, you can find the answer really quick. At the end of my google searches, I made a clear vision about the perfect highchair that has to be bought for our toddler. Here are these 6 things which I really need in a highchair:

1. Safe - this is the most important thing in every toy you buy for a baby and of course in a highchair too.

2. Easy to handle both with a baby ( the weight of highchair is just 4,5 kg). Can you imagine that you are alone with your baby at home. Baby is crying, you need to prepare some food really quickly. The highchair is in the living room, you have to pick up your baby, highchair and of course some toys. If it is a really hard highchair this appears to be mission imposible for you. So, easy to handle is a perfect choice.

3. Easy to storage (we want that this highchair won´t occupy a lot of space after its use). If ypu live in a house it doesn't matter, but once you live in a flat every piece of space is important.

4. Practical - easy in use, you as a mother can manage to put your baby alone without any help. As well your child to find it comfortable and eat there with pleasure.

5. Colourful - perfect for children. Your baby to enjoy the time spending here.

6. Price - it doesn't have to be expensive

Now you understand why I have looked so meticulously for this highchair.

We bought this highchair on Amazon, and I am really happy about this. I think this highchair has all the features that we were looking for. My first impression when we received it was that how great is to eat alltogether, and I don´t have to handle my baby while we are eating. And he feels independent as he has his own place to eat and play.

Below you can see how happy was Damian with his new throne, even if he is little he clearly understands that this toy is new and he has to discover it.
