Every Australian parent who loves the functionality and stylish good looks of European-designed products must thank their lucky stars that Rose & Lily – www.roseandlily.com.au – is on the scene.
Two working mums, Michele and Jennifer, saw a gap in the market a few years ago, and the result is that now we in Australia can now get our hands on some of the best Euro baby products around! Perfectly placed as they are (Michelle is in Australia and Jennifer’s in Belgium), the magic twosome carefully select and import some seriously cool products and brands.
Take Babymoov as one example. With its French heritage clearly evident in the designs, Babymoov products are designed by mums, for mums. The Bebedelice baby food processor is absolutely ingenious: it defrosts, cooks and blends home-made baby food, warms bottles and jars and even sterilises your babyfeeding paraphernalia!
BabySteps 123 is another brand which offers well thought out accessories to make feeding solids easier. The Multi Slicer is a really nifty way of quickly preparing fruit and vegetables as healthy snacks, and there’s also some useful freezer trays in various sizes and shapes (essential, believe me), and a very nifty hand-blender which takes no electricity or batteries at all!
If you’ve started the solids journey but you’re runninng out of inspiration as to what to feed your baby or toddler, Rose & Lily have Sneakys, eBooks of delicious recipes designed especially for the very young (including the very fussy!) all by nutritionist mum Leanne Cooper.
My Plate Mate is another of those brilliant ideas; the sort where you wonder why nobody had ever thought of it before! It’s simply a spill guard rim which attaches on to any standard child’s size plate, meaning that they don’t spill food as readily when learning to use cutlery, and the unique shape of the rim even helps to scoop food onto the fork or spoon! My Plate Mate is free of lead, BPA, phthalate, PVC, latex & polycarbonates and it easy to clean and dishwasher safe.
OnTray2Go is another brilliant idea: simply fill the boxes with scrumptious snacks (you should have plenty of them prepared by now!) and clip on to the handle of your supermarket trolley. So much easier than fighting with a hungry toddler as you trundle around the aisles!
The Mije Crab is a clever bath toy which not only tells you the temperature of the bath water, but also sounds audio and visual alarms if the water is too hot. In the same vein of controlling temperature, the Cold Seat car seat cover is absolutely brilliant for Australian summers: simply put it in the freezer for a while before use, then cover the car seat with it – including buckles where possible – and then refreeze it before the next use. How brilliant is that?!
For other cool places to sit, here is another option: the beautiful Luna Lullaby Bounce-A-Bye Baby Balls are the only exercise ball you won’t want to hide away when you’re done using it. With a myriad of uses such as birthing ball, a baby soothing motion seat and a pre- and post-pregnancy fitness ball, not to mention an oversized ball for the kids to chase around the garden on nice days, these will last you for years.
And last but not least, the Learning Tower is one of the best kids products I’ve seen around in a long time. A four-sided platform designed to bring small children up to the level where all the action is happening, you can use the Learning Tower to facilitate your child’s involvement with cooking, washing dishes, sorting laundry, you name it. You can also get add-on kits to turn your Learning Tower into an art easel or a playhouse – amazing!
