Let’s move into the bathroom for this special holiday Double Feature.  We seem to spend so much time focused on the nursery or the playroom forgetting that there are fun products to discover for grooming baby too!  These next two companies offer products that would make a unique gift set together {or fabulous stocking stuffers apart} to give this holiday season!

Before I introduce you to BellyLaf, let me first congratulate them on winning the iParenting “Greatest Products for 2008″ award for Baby Care!  That’s awesome and I’m here to show you why they won.  First here’s their Grippees product, “wash mitts that grip”!  Every new parent needs these because EVERY baby submerged in water is a slippery little sucker!  Prevent accidents and feel safer at bath time when you have your Grippees on.  Made from bamboo material, not terry cloth which can wear down over time, these super soft mitts are gentle dry and wet, and of course the best part is the small silicone {non-toxic and soft of course} dots on the palms of the mitts.  Baby will stay put in your hands and no need to reach for a washcloth.  The BellyLaf characters are adorable too aren’t they?  Fun and colorful for keeping babies attention during bath time!

Say Hi to Rocko the Crab!

BellyLaf also has these precious little MiniMitts for toddlers learning to wash on their own.  My 2 year old Connor gets such a kick our of wearing his MiniMitts in the tub!  He washes himself and everything in sight!  He is learning how to clean all the important parts of his body while still having fun and “playing” with his “friends” on his mitts!  Bath time is such a fun time in our house, and should be in every house, and BellyLaf just makes it that much sweeter, and safer!  {And, for those of you wanting to know how well these products stand up to daily use…as that would be my first question, they have been used many many times in my house since receiving, they’ve been washed and dried and are still going strong!}

Pair up the BellyLaf products with some Tooth Tissue packs and you have one creative gift set!  These are fantastic, dental wipes for baby’s gums and first teeth.  Little Aidan can not get enough of me cleaning his gums with his Tooth Tissues, he cries when it’s over!  {Hopefully this means he’ll be a breeze at the dentist}  Designed to help remove plaque from baby’s little teeth and gums, Tooth Tissues are fluoride free and natural, making it safe to clean your little one’s mouth!  It’s easy to forget about the need to clean such small teeth and such a small mouth {especially when their are older children in the house who are actually brushing their own teeth and need you to re-brush or monitor}, but baby’s teeth are just as important and beginning oral health early is the key!  Fit these into your bathroom routine, your baby with love it!
