Amazon Item: EZPZ Tiny Pops for Infants

Posted on by

https://amzn.to/4fi97WU

Amazon Item: EZPZ Tiny Pops for Infants. These are awesome for infants to begin practicing holding on while safely tasting foods. You can use them by freezing breast milk, smoothies, and purees in the freezer. Made from silicone, so they easily come out of the holder. You can also use them with fork mashed or pureed foods without freezing them. Babies can practice holding the handle and tasting the foods with your supervision! Each one is a 1/2 ounce size.

Amazon Item: Munchkin Splash Open Toddler Cup

Amazon item: Munchkin Splash Open Toddler Cup. This cup is a great option for little ones learning how to drink from an “open cup”. It has a lid that controls and directs the flow of water or liquid to one area of the cup. This is a great training tool for teaching toddlers how to drink from cups without spouts. It is also smaller, so they can hold it independently!

Use the blue link above to find this cup directly on Amazon!

Booster Seat Cushion for Toddlers on Amazon

Posted on by

This booster seat can be used for sitting at the kitchen table using a regular kitchen chair.  It will work well for kids who are able to sit independently because there are no safety straps to hold them on the seat.  If you need one with safety buckles, there are other ones on Amazon.  

This one does have straps, but they are to hold the cushion to the chair so it doesn’t fall off. 

You can also use this cushion on the floor to work on sitting balance for those kiddos that need the extra core strength and endurance practice!
