If you’re a fan on Facebook, you may have noticed that I just became an auntie. My step-brother had a baby boy last month and my brother’s baby is due just before the end of the year. I’m looking forward to having my new nephew around. I miss having a baby in the house, but I love the idea of being able to give the baby back when it’s time for a diaper change!
I’ve already started looking at baby products online for my brother. Babies require so many gadgets now-a-days! Some are a necessity and others are just plain frivolous (in my opinion). It may just be me, but do you really need ALL those toys?
Things have changed so much in the 4 years since my youngest was born. Especially since most of the items we used with my daughter were items from my oldest and he’s about to turn 7! The strollers today are a far cry from the cheap umbrella stroller that’s still in my trunk as a “just in case”. The Maclaren pushchairs (above) are sleek and lightweight. These modern pushchairs even have a 4 position seat unit which is suitable from birth up. You can say good-bye to that over-sized newborn stroller system! I remember what a bear it was to lug that thing out of the car.
Here are some of the features of these cool new strollers or prams:
Suitable from birth, Sovereign Lifetime Warranty™, Lightweight at only 7.5kg, 5 point harness for added security, One-hand recline, Height adjustable shoulder harness, Removable washable seat, Compact umbrella fold, Water resistant extendable hood with storage pocket, UV protective viewing window and sun visor, High-performance aluminium frame, Handy mesh shopping basket, Carry handle for easy portability, 5 second one-hand fold, Lockable, front swivel wheels, Foot-operated linked parking brakes, Extendable leg rest, Ergonomically optimised extendable handles, Reflective accents for night safety, Raincover, Boot, Seat Liner, Head Hugger and Shoulder Pads included. Coordinates with Maclaren Soft Cot and Recaro Young Profi Plus car seat, creating a versatile full-featured travel system.
I’m looking forward to browsing the aisles of baby retail stores to find all the hip accessories to spoil my new niece or nephew. That is what aunties are for. Right?
