Developing a routine and implementing good hygiene is important from a very early age. As an infant a lot of the responsibility falls on the parents but as your baby grows into toddler stage, empowering your little one to perform the tasks on their own is not only crucial, but very rewarding as well.
Fortunately the experience with son was rather seamless thanks to structure and some great products available aimed to ease the process.
My little guy loves his nighttime routine. Bath is one of his favorite things. He doesn’t mind getting clean as long as it is also a time of interactive play with mom and dad. We sit outside the tub and take on a vast array of superheroes and characters that use bubbles and water for most of their crime-fighting and problem solving. Bath toys that have a specific function are the best, like the bblüv Kräb 3-in-1 Thermometer & Bath Toy. This way we can get a fast accurate reading of the water temperature while continuing to play.
After he jumps out of the bath and get into his jammies, brushing teeth is next on the agenda. But my little man doesn’t think of this as a tedious task before bed but rather a few more minutes of fun. He enjoys watching his battery powered bblüv Sönik 2 Stage Sonic Toothbrush light up while he brushes. The toothbrush pluses every thirty seconds and then shuts off after two minutes so it helps manage the length and quality of brushing in very easy manner.
To help him adjust to the perfect height to stand at the sink, he uses the bblüv Stëp Foldable Step Stool. It allows him to reach areas that are still just a little too high but in a safe way with a stable lift. What I was not expecting was just how much he would love this stool! It seems really silly but he literally carries it everywhere with him. He takes it from room to room, the bathroom, the kitchen, even the car – yes – it is so lightweight and easy to open and close that it has become a mainstay so he has easy access to any items, all the time.
His sharp nails have been an issue since birth. I always think it is so hard to trim nails on a baby or toddler. They don’t want to sit still, or they are afraid of getting cut, or you are afraid of cutting too much… it’s a tough dance. So I was thrilled to learn about the bblüv Trimö Electric Nail Trimmer. It is the perfect tool to shorten your baby’s nails without any risk of injury. The gentle filing process makes it comfortable for baby’s tiny fingers. And to take it even a notch more personalized, it comes with four filing discs that are color coated based on the age of your child. For instance you use the pink for 0-3 months, the green for 6-12 months, and the orange for 12 months or more. They are also two different speeds to make the process both gentle and painless.
