It’s important to start healthy habits young. Baby Buddy makes dental hygiene a fun, positive experience for everyone. For day-to-day cleaning for children, there’s a 6 Stage Oral Program that will start you on the right path for healthy teeth and gums starting at birth. Don’t forget, just because your little one doesn’t have teeth yet, oral hygeine and regular check ups with a Dentist in Lancaster are still really important. You want a dentist to check that the baby’s teeth are developing as they are meant to! By taking care of the baby’s teeth now, it should reduce the chance of any problems in the future. Poor dental hygiene can cause bigger problems as people get older. For example, it can cause tonsil stones. If anyone is suffering from tonsil stones, it’s important to visit a dentist to learn how to get rid of tonsil stones and prevent them from becoming a bigger issue. Start taking care of your baby’s teeth now.
Start off with Tooth Tissues (stage 1) and Soft Silicone Finger Toothbrushes (stage 2) to keep those first baby teeth clean and free from plaque while getting your baby use to having their teeth cleaned.
The Wipe N Brush (stage 3) toothbrush is combination of the tooth tissues and the silicone finger toothbrush. This toothbrush fits on my finger perfectly and I can manoeuvre it exactly how I want. The case that it comes in is an ideal since I don’t have to worry about germs hitting the brush. The bristles on the brush are very toothbrush-like. It will be even better when the baby has teeth!
Babies First Toothbrush (stage 4) is great on tender gums and doubles as a teether. This brush has a handle, perfect for a toddlers little hands. This brush is completely silicone, which is great for teaching my daughter to brush her own teeth and still safe if she walks around with it in her mouth. This toothbrush has become a lifesaver as my daughter is working on getting her first molars and using this as a teether will reach the sensitive gums in the back of her mouth. Plus, it’ll make the Dentist in Avon Lake happy to hear we’ve been so proactive about our little one’s health.
Baby Buddy’s 360 Toothbrushes (stages 5 & 6) innovative design has your child’s small mouth in mind making getting all the hard to reach places where plaque builds up causing cavities. I have never seen a tooth with this design and shape. I gravitated towards this brush over others and my daughter insists on brushing her teeth any time she sees it. This is giving me great hope for her dental hygiene practices as she ages, she’ll very rarely have to go to see a dentist at Dentist Manchester or other dental surgeries at this rate!
Baby Buddy has even designed a 360 toothbrush for expectant moms. Pregnancy really effects the whole body including your teeth and gums. Baby Buddy’s 360 toothbrush is made up of short soft elastic bristles making cleaning on sensitive teeth and gums easy.
Baby Buddy has unique designs that you won’t find with other brands.
Baby Buddy’s Pacifier Holder is the perfect product to keep those constantly falling pacifiers off the floor. I was nervous when I first looked at the pacifier clip because I thought my sons pacifier wouldn’t work with it. After some investigating and strength I was able to stretch the pacifier hole so that the button could fit on it, and it’s perfect! It really is a great product to have around our house; his pacifiers go where he goes now!
Secure-A-Toy is great for keeping a hold of your babies favorite toys and teethers. These work perfectly to attach a toy to your stroller, car seat, highchair and even use while babywearing. There is nothing worse than loosing your child’s comfort item while out and about or having to constantly having to pick it up off the floor and cleaning it before handing it back.
Baby Buddy takes bath time to a level of luxury with their Natural Sea Wool Bath Sponge. Not only are natural sponges recyclable and renewable they are more resistant to bacteria than synthetic sponges. Natural sponges are hyperallergenic and will not mold or mildew. Baby Buddys natural bath sponge is super soft against baby’s skin it also makes lather and rinsing really easy.
Every parent knows how hard it is to clean your child’s bottles and sippy cups. Baby Buddy keeps this nearly impossible task easy with their Bottle Wand. Baby Buddy’s bottle wand makes getting to those hard to reach places easy and saves so much time when hand washing bottles. Choose from a sponge head perfect for everyday cleaning or the Non Abrasive Scour head to help with any stuck on food, ideal for my reusable squeasy pouch snackers.

Launched in 2006 and based out of London, England, Babymel creates high quality diaper bags for moms and dads. These bags feature wipe clean finishes, graphic patterns, bright colors, insulated bottle holders, and a large array of pockets. The creators of Babymel look to give organization to mamas around the globe. Each bag comes with an insulated bottle holder and a padded changing mat. All their products are made with wipe clean materials and are water resistant.
The Robyn diaper bag by Babymel is the perfect diaper bag for anyone. It comes in two styles – black and navy blue stripes both with faux leather trim. This versatile bag allows four ways of wear: on your back, shoulder, cross body, or handheld. The convertible strap offers easy transition so you can give your hands or back a break.
The straps are awesome; they’re my favorite feature of the bag. I mostly wear it as a backpack – which I love – but there’s also the option of using it as a
shoulder bag and a cross body bag. My husband uses it as a shoulder bag because he doesn’t like having to put the bag on his back. The diaper bag is so easy to transition between the different strap styles, it takes no time at all. Just pull the leather pad/handle and it converts from the backpack to the shoulder/cross body bag – seriously so easy. No hooks, clips, or loops. Just a quick tug! Do the opposite to go back to the backpack style; pull the straps equally and they stop when they’re in place.
The Babymel bag has many pockets and compartments; three pockets on the inside and three pockets on the outside. These pockets allow for easy organization and quick ‘grabbing’. On the left side of the bag there is a pocket with a velcro closure.
This pocket is for easy access to baby wipes – such a great feature! There is a pocket on the right side just like the left pocket except without the velcro closure. One large pocket on the front is perfect for storing the changing mat. I love keeping the changing mat and wipes on the outside of the bag so I can access them quickly and easily. It really makes diaper changes go quicker.
On the inside of the bag there is a pocket with a zipper – the pocket that almost every bag has. This is great for things like chapstick, a pen, gum, and tampons. The two additional pockets are located on the backside of the backpack. The pockets are perfect for keeping baby items like a change of clothes, bib, and/or burp cloth.
I use cloth diapers, so when I received the bag I was curious to see if it would be large enough to fit all we needed when going out – especially diapers. Cloth diapers are bulky and they take up a lot of space. Since receiving the bag I have had room to add more to it each time we’ve left the house. It’s a big bag and I can guarantee you’ll be able to fit what you need in it.
Here is a list of all the things we keep in the diaper bag:
There you have it, everything we carry with us on a regular basis. Sometimes we even add more to it depending on where we’re going.. like a lunch pail or a sleep sack.
If I could change one thing about the Babymel diaper bag I would create a pocket for “mom’s stuff”. I don’t carry a purse if I have the diaper bag with me, so I need a place to put my wallet. I would totally put it in one of the outside pockets, but they are way to easy to get into. Having my wallet in one of them is just asking for someone to take it. Currently I just put it in the main part of the bag; it just kind of hangs out with all the other baby things. Sometimes I use one of the pockets on the back of the inside of the bag, which is ok. I can make it work without a “me” pocket, but all in all it would be great if there was one.

ByKay started at owner Kay’s kitchen table as she tried to design herself a ergonomic baby carrier that was not only high quality but also trendy. Little did she know that her project of creating her own carrier in 2005 would result into the international company it is today.
ByKay truly has every carrier you could imagine in the trendiest colors made of the highest quality fabrics.

If you are new to Mei Tais like I was, let me break it down for you. A Mei Tai is a simple two shouldered baby carrier that has a strap that ties around your waist and a panel of fabric to support baby. This is the perfect carrier for all ages, newborn to toddler. Mei Tais are designed after a traditional Asian baby carrier and are by far the easiest to use!
The ByKay Mei Tai Classic is the first Mei Tai I have tried and I instantly fell in love. Mei Tais are elegant and simple, they give you the beautiful look of wrapping like with a woven, along with the design of a soft structure carrier minus 
the buckles. Don’t get me wrong, I love my SSC but hate having resize it for when my husband wears it. That’s the beauty of a Mei Tai, size doesn’t matter, I can get a great fit and so can my husband without having to make a ton of adjustments. Like I said, I adore the look of a woven wrap, but I have never tried one and to be honest I am intimidated by them. I love that I can get the look of a woven without the learning curve needed.
I’m drawn to how versatile and comfortable Mei Tais are. I get great back support and that the wider straps evenly distribute the weight. Spread the shoulder straps wide on your shoulders and back for a balanced and comfortable fit.
I love nothing more than a cozy front carry and a ByKay Mei Tai can easily be the first carrier you put your newborn in. This carrier will grow with you as your child grows. I loved to front carry my daughter when she was super tiny and still do to this day. When they say a carrier is “sprinkled with sleepy dust” that statement is true for my daughter. I can easily
get her to nap, with a cozy front carry, while we are on the go.
Once your baby is able to sit by themselves you can use the back carry position. Learning to get your child from the front to the back can take a little practice, but I feel that learning with a Mei Tai is easier than with any other carrier. Back carrying is great for when your child wants to look around a little more. I often back carry when we go for walks or if my daughter needs extra cuddles while I’m trying to get my housework done.
My new favorite carry is a hip carry. I never thought you could do a 
comfortable hip carry in anything other than a ring sling until I tried a hip carry in my ByKay Mei Tai. Not only do I love the look of this hip carry, it’s super comfortable for myself and my daughter.
Your ByKay Mei Tai comes with a booklet that will explain how to safely wear your newborn, how to move your child from front to back and how to do a hip carry, along with step by step photos, which I found extremely helpful.
ByKay is dedicated to the idea that everyone can Carry Their Love. Keeping moms and dads close to their babies to take full advantages for babywearing including skin contact and security while keeping it practical. ByKay has a complete range of ergonomic baby carriers, so there is the perfect fit for everyone.

The hottest toy in the Fox house for 2016 was Shape Mags – the magnetic bricks perfect for all ages. I have recently seen magnetic tiles for sale in stores and online. It peaked my interest for several reasons. First off they looked super fun! Colorful items and magnetic things are top forms of attraction for all toddlers. They can build fine motor skills, develop critical thinking skills, and sharpen math skills. Then I noticed there are tons of brands and companies making these tiles so I knew I needed to take a step back and see which brand is worth the investment.
I have come to the conclusion that Shape Mags are the top choice for all families for several key reasons.
My husband is a scientist and loves Shape Mags. He see’s how interactive they are and all the benefits which a child can gain while playing with them. We love that Shape Mags show that magnets have positive and negative charges. This show’s children some of the initial fundamentals to a science. This peeks interest to a child in a way they can see and feel. They are able to see the magnets pull together and push apart. They can see the cause and reaction in a real and tangible way.
These toys are safe and fun for the while family. With tons of shapes and sizes of mags, you are sure to have hours and hours of entertainment. I know that when I sit down and start playing with them I get addicted! I have such a fun time playing with them. I have even noticed that I am still playing with them after my kids walked about to another toy! I just cannot help myself, it brings out your creative side. Your curious nature in a safe and engaging environment.
