  • Best of the best - infant Orbit stroller


    12 August 2008

    When I looked this up on the internet, I know I am looking at the coolest looking and most functional stroller/car seat/base I have ever seen.  It promises the smoothest ride on the road, and the easiest use, both setting up and dismantling for the car. It's super easy to fold, manuever, and install.  To top it off, you can fold an Orbit stroller with one hand.

    Many users agree the swivel base is the best. Its 360 degree rotation allows your baby traveler to be rear, forward, or even sideways facing. When your baby traveler is inside the stroller, he or she will feel really cozy.  The Orbit stroller even has a cool "paparazzi shield" to block the sun, wind or rain.

    The manufacturer, Orbit, is one of the most environmentally friendly company out there.  So when buying an Orbit stroller, you know you are also helping the environment.

    It's a bit pricey for me, but many say once you try it, you will find yourself justifying this in a big way.  The Orbit stroller is undoubtedly the top of the line.

    Check it out at Baby Earth or Giggle.

  • Learn sign language on the road


    12 August 2008

    We are scratching our head to come up with how to keep our baby traveler occupied on the road.  Maybe we should bring just two more, no, five more pieces of toy.  Or we can stick yet another cartoon in the DVD player to amuse them.

    Why don't we do something educational when we are trying to make time pass?

    Two Little Hands Productions is the producer of the public television series - Signing Time. It teaches American Sign Language (ASL).

    They teach babies, preschoolers, and grade schoolers ASL through music.  I believe they create their own music, their animation is pretty charming, and in the video there are dozens of signing children to demonstrate the signs.

    I found out this series has won more than 8 national awards - including a Telly Award, a Notable award from the American Library Association, the Dove Foundation Seal of Approval, and All Star Ratings from Kids First, to name a few.  They have a full line of DVD, VHS, music CD, books, flashcards and Learning CD products that you can choose from.  You can simply bring one of their books on the plane with you, or a DVD or CD if you will bring along a player.
