The Rodi XR booster seat is one of a number of fashion forward booster seats on the market. It comes in several bright color combinations that are likely to please young kids. As opposed to cheaper, more traditional seats like the classic Graco , this seat is meant to be enjoyed by a child as “his” seat, as opposed to just “the place where he sits.”… Like almost all seats of this type, the seat attaches using the regular three-point seat belt that goes over the seat and child, holding both in together.

Cloud B Constellation Nightlight
October 27, 2008 – 3:43 pm
I like it because it turns their entire room into a planetarium, with choices of blue or green stars (and a moon). Stargazing has always been a special time for me with the kids and, while they can’t always figure out what I’m pointing at, they like the time lying on the grass staring up at the sky with daddy and talking about ‘stuff.’ While the Cloud B Sea Turtle, and it’s other endangered animal constellation brothers, can’t replace that experience, it reminds of good times we’ve had and to come.
Review: HotSlings
October 20, 2008 – 7:33 am
Through the next few reviews, I will focus mainly on the ins and outs of various slings – pros and cons from both a parent’s point of view as well as my perceived pros and cons from my child’s point of view.
…A note on picking your size and tip on using the Hotslings should keep you in good stead: it is imperative make sure you buy the correct size, not only for your comfort, but for your child’s safety and avoid overly baggy/loose clothing which may bunch and bundle under the shoulder area if user is not careful. Pros: Contemporary design Keeps baby extra snug Ability to hold baby or toddler a minimum of 3 different ways Cons: Price Slings are so individual – each one and every company has a different feel and style.

Ubimed Cleanoz Aspirator a good replacement for that gnarly rubber aspirator bulb
September 18, 2008 – 10:15 am
We had a chance to meet the inventor, Jose Bensoussan, of the Ubimed Cleanoz Nasal Aspirator Kit at the recent ABC baby and kids product show (2008) and he told a compelling story about this new device. … Many parents have been suspicious of the bulb since there is no way to really clean it out or sterilize it and it’s used inside the mouth and nose of very small babies. Better to leave it on the ground the next time it rolls off the changing table and use it as a dog pull toy.

Baby Light and Clip – Nail Clipper for Babies If you’ve ever struggled to cut a baby’s finger or toenails, you’ll love this little gadget. It’s a very simple little tool that incorporates a basic baby fingernail clipper and a light so you can clip in the dark while they are sleeping. And, if you’ve ever cut down too close and actually cut your baby (yes, it does happen) because baby was struggling, or you couldn’t see, this clipper has finger guard so you can’t push in too deep.
If you need this Flippee Toilet Shield, it’s likely a miracle product
August 2, 2008 – 1:13 pm
Without the aid of cheerios or other floating targets, he stays inside the lines, and rarely have I seen him paint the walls. … I can only imagine how wide of the target they must have hit before she took pencil to paper and invented this gadget, the Flippee. At $24.95, and available from Potty Training Concepts and Flippee.com , you might be surprised at how simple it is.
Product review – Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W120
July 3, 2008 – 6:06 pm
My wife’s camera takes an SD card, which also fits directly into a Palm Treo, so I was hoping to eliminate one memory card and simplify our lives just a tiny bit. … Luckily, a 2 Gig card was enough to get me through about 320 photos and a few small movies with plenty of room to spare, but I was unable to send any email photos home along the way. … I wish they had built a tiny tiny pocket into it to keep an extra memory stick or battery, but otherwise, it’s a very practical addition that I’m sure helped me take more pictures.
Jazz for Dads

“Jazz for Dads” (Concord Records) I don’t know anything about this, but saw it and had to take a look…. AS “Mr. Jim” says in his Amazon review: Jazz lovers will enjoy this album anytime of the year, but with “Dad” this CD touches the heartstrings.
