Mimicking the shape of the Mutsy prams, the
Easygrow
is an industrial beauty of a chair
and a fantastic investment, lasting children from babyhood,
right up to 12 years. Parents don't want to pay large amounts
of money for something that will only last until toddlerhood, when the
adult chairs are still too big, yet the highchair too small.
Mutsy is providing an alternative to the more earthy-looking wooden
highchairs produced by other leading brands. For those of us still loving
our stainless steel appliances and large industrial spaces made into
living quarters, the Easygrow is just what we want stylistically,
as well as practically.
Smaller babies, starting out in their first chair will be as snug as a
bug when it is fitted with the 'flexible seat reducer'.
The Easygrow
already comes with the footrest,
tray and bumper bar, so only one optional extra is great on the hip
pocket. Choose from pleasing neutral colours in a
selection of opaques and solids. There's also orange and green for
those wanting a brighter look.
Take a look also, at the portable booster for children up to age 4.
The Grow Up Booster Chair
sports spaceage looks, and weighing
only 1.5kg, can easily be transported around. It's refreshing to see
such a good looking booster! Available in aqua, mandarin, apple,
raspberry, blueberry and nut.
If you're wanting this now, look to UK retailers. TGA Baby
will have more information on release in Australia in July which is fine for those currently gestating or with brand new family
additions. Now you can experience Mutsy quality both out and about and inside the home!
No-one ever forgets their child's first cradle. There's something pure
and gentle about a newborn's first bed, the site of much baby
gazing, disbelief that this beautiful child is yours, as well as the
settling and soothing in the wee hours. Chances are you'll spend
hours perched beside baby's bed, so why not make it one that's easy on
the eyes, eco-friendly, free of pesticides and other toxins, as well
as the ultimate in comfort for your baby?
The
Seed Organic Cradle provides baby with a peaceful sleeping
environment, perfect for those first weeks and months when sleeping is the number one priority other than feeding.
The walls of the cradle are made from 100% breathable organic
cotton. Being a huge fan of latex pillows and mattresses, I was
delighted to find that the mattress of the Seed Cradle is an organic
version, filled with breather holes and contouring to the
delicate shape of your baby's body. It slips inside a pocket, so no
rolling, no slipping, no lumps, just sweetly cushioned and tailored
for the littlest one in your
house. What is extra remarkable is the cradle base, stamped with holes
to maximise the breathable effect of the latex. If you live in
an abode like us, with slight damp issues, then you'll also be happy to
know that the latex is hypoallergenic and mould-resistant.
Evoking romantic images of medieval infant sleeping vessels, the
Seed Cradle is an ideal place for your precious baby to sleep.
