Baby Utensils: Spoons and forks JUST for your baby

Baby Utensils: Spoons and forks JUST for your baby

Eating spaghetti with your hands. As a baby it is absolutely adorable. As an adult it is creepy and weird. As your baby grows up there will come a time when you need to introduce him to the wonderful world of utensils.

Even if the only classy thing that you manage teach your baby is how to use a knife and fork, you have succeeded as a parent.

Spoons for Spoon Feeding

A great spoon can make spoon feeding your baby a much simpler task.

So what makes a good spoon for feeding your baby?

Excellent question. Some things to look out for when choosing a spoon for spoon feeding include:

1. Soft tipped – If your baby bites down hard on a metal spoon then your babies meal time is as good as over. You will have to wait until the tears stop before attempting to feed again. A soft plastic or silicone spoon will keep your babies gums protected no matter how hard he chomps. Note: Some babies actually prefer metal spoons..

2. Flat tipped Your baby is going to end up with food all over his face, no matter how good you are at landing that aeroplane into your babies mouth. A spoon with a flat tip will allow you to easily scrape away the bits around your babies lips and sneakily slip it back into his mouth.

3. Nicely weighted An often overlooked part of spoon feeding is the weight of the spoon. If the handle is too heavy then there is no way you will be able to get your spoon to remain upright in your babies food jar.

 

On-the-Go Feeding Spoon



 

A soft, right-sized Spoon for gentle feeding on the go

Food-grade silicone coating gives this Feeding Spoon a soft touch. Each shallow spoonful holds just enough for baby’s mouth, and is soft enough to scrape the last bits out of the bowl or wipe them off of baby’s face. Spoon fits neatly into the compact carrying case.

Features:

  • Silicone Spoon feels soft in baby’s mouth
  • Silicone edge perfect for scraping food from bowl, jar or wiping food from baby’s mouth
  • Spoon shaped for easy scooping of food
  • Contoured handle angled for ease of feeding
  • Sturdy stainless steel for durability
  • BPA, phthalate and PVC free
  • 6 months +
  • Dishwasher safe

 

On-the-Go Fork & Spoon Set

Easy-grip utensils help tots learn to feed themselves

Both Fork and Spoon make it easy for young eaters to get their food from dish to mouth. A flat spot on the handles prevents the fork and spoon from rolling off the table or high chair tray, and the soft grips are shaped to keep them from sliding into bowls or plates. Made of durable stainless steel.

  • Soft, non-slip handles are easy for little hands to hold
  • Handles are curved to prevent slipping into bowl or plate
  • Effective fork tines, yet no sharp edges, deep spoon shape for easier scooping of food and liquids
  • Sturdy stainless steel for durability
  • BPA, phthalate and pvc free

 

SQUIRT isn't just a spoon; it's a revelation. It takes baby food, removes the jar and the mess, packs it into a single utensil and with one squeeze-- boom! You get easy, one-handed feeding. Pop on the cap to seal food on-the-go. Caution: May cause gobbling and an uncontrollable appreciation for anything delicious.

  • Dispenses baby food one bite at a time
  • Perfect for Stage 1 or 2 baby food
  • Convenient one-handed feeding
  • Includes cap for storage
  • Large easy-to-clean bulb holds up to 3 oz (90 ml) of baby food
  • Great for on-the-go
  • Food-grade silicone
  • Recommended age: 4+ months
  • BpA-free, Phthalate-free and PVC-free
  • Dimensions: 2" x 7.1" x 2"

Wash thoroughly before initial use and after each use. Wash each piece separately. Dishwasher-safe or hand wash in warm, soapy water. DO NOT microwave. DO NOT boil or sterilize.

The Boon squirt will allow you to do just that. The back section of the spoon is a squeezable bulb container capable of holding up to 3 ounces of baby food. Simply unscrew the bulb and load your baby food inside.

filling up a boon squirt baby spoon

There is a small hole at the neck of the spoon. When the bulb is squeezed the spoon head catches the food. From here you shove it in your baby’s mouth and celebrate just how easy it all was.

Sounds TOO EASY. Doesn’t it. As always, there is a catch.

The Boon Squirt works better with runny baby foods. Thicker, chunkier baby foods are quite difficult to squeeze out. And be sure to give it a good shake if air gets trapped inside, otherwise the food to literally explode out of the nozzle and all over your baby.

While covering my baby head to toe in his favorite thick baby food was hilarious, the tears of laughter were quickly replaced with tears of sadness when I realized it was me that would have to clean the whole mess up.

But for runny custards and purees this baby spoon is awesome and makes feeding your baby incredibly easy, especially when travelling. A cap that covers the spoon is even included. This allowed me to throw a couple of frozen baby food cubes inside in the morning and have them thawed and ready to serve by lunchtime.

As you would expect from Boon, this baby spoon is free from nasties like PVC, BPA and phthalates, incredibly easy to clean and dishwasher safe.

How to Protect Your Child from Insect Bites?

How to Protect Your Child from Insect Bites?

Mosquitoes, ticks and biting flies can carry disease. However the flies do not carry disease and disease from other insects is very rare. To help avoid insect and tick bites you can:

  • Avoid sandals, wear light-coloured, long pants and long-sleeved shirts when outdoors, and tuck shirts into pants and pants into socks. This is especially important when mosquitoes are most active at dawn and dusk.
  • Avoid places where mosquitoes breed and live, like standing water.
  • Clean up any standing water in your yard. 
  • Keep screens in good repair.
  • Cover playpens or strollers with a fine mesh netting when you are in an area with mosquitoes.
  • Use insect repellents.

How can I use insect repellents safely?

  • Read the entire label before using any insect repellent.
  • Do not allow children under 10 years of age to put on their own insect repellent. Apply the product lightly and don’t use more than you need.
  • Always spray in an open, ventilated area. Do not apply in a tent or motorhome.
  • Do not apply on irritated or sunburned skin or on open cuts or scrapes.
  • Do not apply on your child’s hands because she might rub it into her eyes or mouth.
  • Be careful not to get it in your child’s eyes. If you do get the insect repellent in the eyes, rinse with water right away.
  • Apply it only on top of clothing or to skin that is showing. Don’t use it under clothes.
  • Reapply after swimming.
  • When you don’t need the protection anymore, wash the repellant off with soap and water.

If you think your child is having a reaction to the product, wash the skin and get medical help right away. Take the container with you so the doctor knows what you used.

Can I use insect repellent and a sunscreen at the same time?

Yes, but avoid products with a combination of insect repellent and sunscreen. Sunscreen typically needs to be reapplied more often than repellent. If repellent and sunscreen are both required, the sunscreen should be applied first. Wait 20 minutes and then apply the insect repellent.

Baby Gates: The UNBEATABLE baby proofing tool

Baby Gates: The UNBEATABLE baby proofing tool

It can be surprisingly difficult to locate the perfect baby gate for your house. This is largely due to every house being different and don’t get me started on those houses that aren’t quite up to code

2 things you need to do before buying a baby gate:

Before you rush out and buy any old baby gate there are two very important things you need to take into consideration and they both involve measuring.

1. What distance does your baby gate need to cover?

The first thing you will need to do is measure the area you are going to section off with a baby gate. Be as accurate as possible as there is nothing worse than taking a baby gate home only to find it is to short to perform it’s purpose.

2. How tall is your baby?

While you are measuring your home, quickly measure your baby too. When choosing a baby gate it should be at least three quarters of your little ones height. Even the most adventurous of babies should be unable to pull himself over a baby gate of this height.

Be mindful that once your baby grows taller than 36 inches or heavier than 30 pounds, you should no longer be relying on a safety gate to restrain him. This height and weight is usually reached around the two year old mark.

If your baby is large for his age, do not worry. There are extra tall baby gates available to ensure the safety of your little one.

How to choose the best toddler pillow for your child?

How to choose the best toddler pillow for your child?

As your toddler continues to grow there will come a time when your little one will need a pillow to remain comfortable throughout the night. Toddler pillows, also known as infant pillows were designed for the sole purpose of providing your baby with a comfortable nights sleep.

Why you shouldn’t give your toddler a regular pillow

If you have not heard of toddler pillows before then you may be wondering why a toddler can’t simply sleep on a regular pillow.

A regular pillow is designed to provide support to the adults head and neck. A toddler does not have the same proportions as an adult and resting on a regular pillow will place unnecessary strain on the neck and shoulders. Continuous strain may lead discomfort and sleepless nights or worse, poor posture.

Toddler pillows are designed around your baby’s proportions, allowing for a comfortable sleep while providing your little ones developing body with appropriate support.

When to introduce your toddler to a pillow

There is much debate as to when a toddler should start using a pillow. Many “experts” agree that the right time to give your toddler a pillow is when you transition your little one from the crib to a bed, around the age of 18 – 24 months.

The answer you will get from parents, however, will differ vastly. Many parents report that they introduced pillows well before this age without problems. As every baby develops and behaves differently, there doesn’t appear to be a universal “right” time to introduce your baby to a pillow.

Ultimately as the parent, it is your decision as to when your little one is ready to use a pillow. If you watch your toddler closely then you may notice him giving you clues that he is ready to make the jump to sleeping with a pillow. Clues include:

  • Failure to sleep without the head being propped up
  • Restless at night due to being uncomfortable
  • Resting the head on a blanket or stuffed animal
  • Laying head on a pillow on the couch or in your bed

 

Choosing the best pillow for your toddler

If you are trying to find the best pillow for your toddler then you will need to take the following points into consideration.

Know your toddlers allergies

Let’s say that your child is allergic to wool. It goes without saying that you would not buy your toddler a wool pillow, which would only aggravate his allergy. By being aware of what your little one is and isn’t allergic to will help you narrow down the perfect toddler pillow.

Satisfaction guarantee

Many toddler pillows offer a satisfaction guarantee. Some are as low as 90 days while others offer a guarantee period of three years. A guarantee will vary from brand to brand but it will generally cover poor workmanship, torn seams or loss of shape.

A longer guarantee may indicate a better quality toddler as the company is willing to stand behind it’s product. The top three toddler pillows in our review below all have a guarantee of varying length.

Firm vs soft

You will need to strike up a delicate balance between comfort and support. If you press down on a pillow and it does not regain its shape then the pillow is too soft and is unsafe for your toddler to use as it poses a suffocation risk.

On the flip side if you press down on the pillow and it doesn’t move at all then the pillow may be to hard to provide comfort. While the majority of toddler pillows have been designed to provide optimal support, it is still something to take into consideration.

Pillow cover material

The outer part of the toddler pillow is generally made from cotton. Be mindful that when choosing a pillow that cotton can be regular or organic. Organic cotton lacks the harmful toxins, bleaches and dyes that ordinarily go along with the cotton manufacturing process. Needless to say, you don’t want your baby breathing in these industrial materials while sleeping. Organic toddler pillows will always be clearly marked. If you cannot figure out if a toddler pillow is organic or not then it is better to use caution and assume that the pillow isn’t.

Common toddler pillow cover materials include:

  • Cotton
  • Cotton polyester blend
  • Synthetic fiber

Thread count

If you have ever purchased new bedding then you may have come across the term “thread count”. Thread count refers to the number of threads per square inch of fabric. The higher the thread count, the silkier and more durable the pillow will feel. Toddler pillows with a high thread count are less scratchy and more comfortable than those with a lower thread count.

Pillow fill material

Beneath the pillow case hides the material that keeps your child’s head supported and comfortable. There are many different materials that can be used to fill toddler pillows. From foam to buckwheat there is a huge variety to choose from. The most common fill materials include:

  • Down
  • Feathers
  • Synthetic fill
  • Foam or memory foam

The above materials are the most common because they allow for the pillow itself to be easily cleaned. Be mindful when selecting a pillow that the fill doesn’t make too much noise as it moves around inside the pillow. Materials like buckwheat and certain synthetic fills can make a loud, crinkling noise when the weight of your toddlers head is shifted. The crinkling noise may result in your toddler being awoken from his slumber, not a desired outcome for any parent.

Washing instructions

If there is one thing toddlers excel at it’s making a mess. Whether the pillow gets dirty from sticky fingers or the drool monster that your toddler turns into at night, one thing is certain, you are eventually going to need to wash that pillow.

Toddler pillows will deal with your young ones grime in one of two ways.

  • Machine washable: Simply throw the pillow in your washing machine for a full cycle. Your toddler pillow will emerge clean s the day you bought it
  • Pillow case: The toddler pillow will have a removable cover that protects the pillow inside. The cover itself is machine washable while the pillow generally is not.

How to wash and clean your baby sippy cups?

 

If you are going to clean your baby bottle nipple then you are going to need a bristled brush. As the bottle nipple is much narrower than the bottle, you will need a small sized brush like the one below. These brushes are also great for cleaning sippy cup lids and straws.

With the baby bottle nipple cleaner in your hand, gently brush around the interior of the nipple. Apply more pressure to remove stubborn milk build up. Rub the sponge around the exterior of the nipple making sure you have removed all traces of milk and baby saliva.

How to wash and clean your baby bottles?

How to wash and clean your baby bottles?

Whether you call it a baby bottle or a feeding bottle, once your baby has finished his meal you are going to need to use the proper technique to get it squeaky clean. Let’s take a look at the correct procedure to follow when cleaning your baby bottles.

After Feeding Your Baby

It is best to clean your baby bottles immediately after feeding your baby. If you plan to wash your baby bottles later, it is vital that you at least thoroughly rinse each bottle to remove any milk or formula residue. This will prevent the milk from drying and hardening, becoming incredibly difficult to remove.

Instead of rinsing, you can also place used baby bottles in the refrigerator until it is time to clean them.

Rinsing your bottle after your baby’s meal is a crucial step regardless of whether you wash your baby bottles in the dishwasher or sink.

Cleaning your baby bottles in the sink

washing your baby bottles int he sink can easily be achieved with these six simple steps.

1. Preparing Your Bottle To be Cleaned

Separate your baby bottle into as many pieces as possible. By washing the nipple, bottle and lid separately you will be guaranteed not to miss any dried milk that may be stuck in out of the way places. Bacteria loves dried milk which makes it vital that you clean your baby bottle properly to prevent passing the bacteria onto your baby.

2. Baby Bottle Washing Solution

With your baby bottle in pieces, it is time to begin washing. Prepare hot water in your sink and add a small amount of mild dish soap. Mix the two together until the water is soapy and add your bottle pieces.

3. Scrubbing Your Baby Bottle

With your baby bottle pieces covered in soapy water it is time to get scrubbing. The easiest way to clean out the bottle chamber is by using a bottle brush similar to the one below.

 Not all baby bottle brushes are the same length, some are shorter than others. When choosing a bottle brush it is best to use one that can easily reach the bottom of your bottle while still allowing you to hold the handle with a firm grip.

    Choosing Safe Pacifiers for Baby

    Choosing Safe Pacifiers for Baby

    Many parents have a love-hate relationship with pacifiers. Parents dread taking the pacifier away one day or having pacifiers discourage breastfeeding. Before you buy pacifiers for your baby, take a look at these common pacifier features and safety tips to be sure you're choosing the best ones for your baby.

    When you're stocking baby's nursery, it's tempting to buy several boxes of those cute little pacifiers. Buying a few pacifiers in different styles is a good idea, wait until you know your baby will take a pacifier before buying too many. Some babies just don't like pacifiers. Others are particular about which pacifiers they will take. Try a few styles with baby before buying a year's supply. Add several styles to your baby registry so your baby has a sampler platter to choose from.

      Orthodontic pacifier nipples have a rounded top and a flat bottom, and were designed to prevent tooth troubles later in baby's life. However, if your baby prefers a rounded traditional pacifier nipple, go with what works. Both types of pacifier nipples have been found to increase bite problems, like overbite, later in life, but limiting the amount of time baby spends with the pacifier and taking the pacifier away after baby's first year can minimize dental damage.

        Silicone or Latex?

        Both silicone and latex have advantages, and the choice usually comes down to baby's preference. Silicone is sturdy, doesn't retain odors, cleans up easily and is harder for baby to bite through. Silicone is not as soft on baby's mouth, though. Latex is soft in baby's mouth and baby may like the way it retains scents, but latex doesn't hold up as well to repeated cleanings and little teeth can quickly chew through it.

          Must-Have Features

          A safe pacifier should be at least 1.5 inches across to prevent choking. Anything smaller won't meet federal safety standards for choking hazards. The well-known brands in major stores are usually a safe bet for size. If you're browsing super-cheap pacifiers in a dollar store or other discount venue, it's a good idea to measure just in case.

          Many babies develop rashes from the constant moisture under the pacifier shield. Pacifiers that have vent holes in the shield to let air get to baby's skin could help. Color and style are up to you, but brightly colored pacifiers are easier to spot under vehicle seats and in diaper bags. Glow-in-the-dark pacifiers might be easier to find at bedtime. Be sure the pacifier can be boiled or put in the dishwasher for cleaning.

          1.Dr Brown's PreVent® Contoured

          Developed by a pediatric dentist to help prevent dental issues.

          All the same benefits as the Regular Shield PreVent Pacifier but with a contoured shield design that helps keep the shield from coming into contact with baby’s face. The Patented Suction-Free Air Channel opens up as baby sucks for low pressure comfort helping lower the pressures inside the baby’s mouth. These pressures can sometimes create dental issues such as cross bites. Palatial pressure is lessened by creating an air channel that reduces suction and spreads apart when baby is sucking.

          2.Dr Brown's PreVent® Contoured Glow-in-the-Dark

          Developed by a pediatric dentist to help prevent dental issues – and now easier to see and find.
          Soft, suction-release bulb spreads wider as baby sucks for low-pressure comfort, plus thin-stem design is minimally intrusive on baby’s mouth. Contoured “butterfly” shaped shield curves away from baby’s face for comfort, plus allows plenty of room for little noses and cheeks. Safe, non-toxic illumination makes it easy for baby and parents to find at night and is easy to recharge – just expose to light. BPA-free and designed for babies 0 to 6 months or 6-12 months.

          From the Jar or Blender: Which Baby Food Is Best?

          From the Jar or Blender: Which Baby Food Is Best?

          The debate continues on whether homemade baby food is better than commercially produced food. Most moms have been in on the conversation at some point, whether or not they still have a 6- to 9-month-old.

          Baby food in the jar is convenient and portable, but some parents worry about:

          • Cost. It can be more expensive to buy baby food than to cook and mash fresh food yourself.
          • Preservatives. “However, the only preservative in the jarred food we recommend is vitamin C,” notes Dr. Rifka.
          • Processing. Excessive heat used to kill bacteria during food processing may also dull nutrients.
          • Packaging. Disposable packaging isn’t as earth-friendly as reusable dishes.

          For these and other reasons, some moms have opted to take the homemade route. They cook, mash and store fresh food themselves, which can be less expensive yet more time consuming. Other sour notes include:

          • Safety. While processed food follows strict safety guidelines — on naturally occurring chemicals like nitrates, for example — homemade food doesn’t.
          • Storage. Homemade food doesn’t keep as easily as jarred food. Parents need to beware of thawing food and refreezing leftovers due to bacteria growth.
          • Texture. How lumpy is too lumpy? Food that isn’t mashed enough could be a choking hazard. And picky eaters may prefer the consistency of smoother processed food.

          “If parents want to make homemade food, it’s fine as long as they do it safely.”

          Which food is best?

          According to Dr. Rifka, it’s up to you. The concerns aren’t dire enough to rule out either type of food. She recommends a combination — making homemade food for dining in and buying jar food for dining out, since unopened jar food doesn’t need to be refrigerated.

          “The quality of processed baby food is no longer an issue,” she says. “There are high-quality, natural baby foods on store shelves now, and most well-known brands have good safety records. But if parents want to make homemade food, it’s fine as long as they do it safely.”

          Do’s and don’ts for making homemade baby food

          If you choose to make baby food yourself, follow these guidelines:

          • Do steam or microwave fruits and vegetables (instead of boiling them) to retain most nutrients.
          • Don’t add salt, sugar or any other ingredient. Each baby food item should have only one ingredient, so it’s easier to identify any potential allergic reaction.  
          • Do mash or puree cooked food with small amounts of water until smooth.
          • Do transfer food into ice cube trays and freeze. Then store frozen cubes in baggies.
          • Don’t freeze food for more than one month.
          • Do rewarm food to room temperature when it’s time to eat — but not before.

          Healthy snacks for babies (and moms) on the go

          No time for homemade? Busy parents can still feed their babies fresh foods that don’t come in a jar. Take one of these along on your next outing:

          • Banana. Bring a little dish and a fork or spoon and mash it good.
          • Avocado. Mash like a banana.
          • Yogurt. But be sure to tote it with an ice pack.  
          • Diced fruit. Peaches, pears and melons are great for babies with new teeth.
          • Tiny cubes of cheese. Opt for pasteurized cheeses, like mozzarella or mild cheddar, because they are less likely to contain illness-causing bacteria.

          Do I Need to Buy a Special Detergent for My Baby's Laundry?

          Do I Need to Buy a Special Detergent for My Baby's Laundry?

          Many new parents buy special detergents to wash their baby's clothes. Is it necessary? Probably not. Which detergent you buy for your baby's clothes will depend on personal preference, family history and any skin reactions after baby arrives. There are four basic choices when it comes to baby laundry detergent.

          Laundry Detergent Made Just for Baby Clothes

          The special detergents that are "baby-specific" are usually scent-free and have fewer ingredients that would be likely to irritate delicate skin.

          Scent-Free Laundry Detergents

          A second category of laundry products to consider is scent-free detergents that are not baby-specific.

          Eco-friendly and alternative detergents or soaps (such as soap nuts) also fall into this category. If you have trouble getting clothes clean with the special baby detergents, these types of detergents may be a better choice. These types of detergents are readily available today, and are generally available for all types of washing machines.

           

          Homemade Laundry Soaps and Detergents

          Many families now make their own laundry detergent or soap at home. This can easily be made at home and works for cloth diapers, baby clothes, plus everyone else's laundry. This is pretty easy to do and is really cheap to make, plus you can customize your own version with essential oils or some types of scented soaps if you like scented laundry. 

          The low cost and convenience of one detergent is an advantage here, plus the effectiveness if you find a homemade detergent that works really well with your water and machine. However, you have to spend extra time making batches of the detergent versus just picking it up at the store.

          You also have to find good ways to store the detergent, since powdered types need to be well sealed to keep out moisture and liquid detergents need to be easily pourable and possibly mixable since some separate between uses.

          How to Brushing Baby's Teeth?

          How to Brushing Baby's Teeth?

          Your baby's primary teeth may be only a temporary tool for chomping, to be replaced during the early school years by his permanent pearls. But it's no less important to take good care of them now and to establish the habits that will lead him toward a lifetime of dental health. Decayed or lost baby teeth can interfere with good nutrition and speech development, and by not holding a proper place for permanent teeth, they can make the permanent ones come in crooked.

           

          WHEN SHOULD I START BRUSHING MY BABY'S TEETH?

          Tooth brushing can begin as soon as baby’s first tooth pokes through the gums. Use a clean, damp washcloth, a gauze pad, or a finger brush to gently wipe clean the first teeth and the front of the tongue, after meals and at bedtime. Toothbrushes — moistened with water and no more than a rice-grain size smear of fluoride toothpaste — can also be used, but they should be very soft and with no more than three rows of bristles (a pediatric dentist or your pharmacist can help you find the finger brushes and a proper baby toothbrush). Toss any toothbrushes that have become rough at the edges (or that are more than two to four months old, because nasty mouth bacteria can begin to build up).

           

          WHAT TO DO IF YOUR BABY HATES TOOTH-BRUSHING TIME

          Unfortunately, not every baby loves having her teeth cleaned—and when baby is teething and her gums are sore and tender, she might be especially resistant. Here’s what to try if tooth-brushing time becomes a struggle:

          • Go easy: Baby’s gums are sensitive (even when she’s not teething), so if she really doesn’t seem to like the brush, try a soft washcloth and a gentle touch.
          • Sing a song: For some babies, a little distraction is all it takes to make tooth-brushing palatable. Sing a favorite tune while cleaning baby’s teeth, or make up silly versions of standards (maybe “Old McDonald had a brush,” or “Mary had a little tooth”). Your little one may reward you with a tiny-toothed smile.
          • Show her how it’s done: Seeing mom or dad brushing—and enjoying it—helps make a game out of tooth-brushing time. “Mom goes first...now your turn!”
          • Let her play: Your baby will probably be curious about the toothbrush or finger brush. Encourage her interest by allowing her to hold the brush and examine it at her own pace. She may even end up putting the brush in her mouth, all on her own.

          Baby's First Teeth: Should You Use Toothpaste?

          Baby's First Teeth: Should You Use Toothpaste?

           

          It's so exciting when your baby's first tooth pops through his gums, and he smiles at you with that sparkling little chomper. As a parent, you should try to make dental care a pleasant experience for your baby right from the start. When your baby gets his first teeth, baby toothpaste will eventually play an important role in setting the stage for your child's later healthy dental practices, but when should you introduce your child to brushing with toothpaste?

           

          Handle With Care

          During the early stages of tooth development, be especially gentle with your baby's teeth and gums. Use a soft-bristled baby toothbrush or finger brush and a light touch when cleaning your baby's new teeth. You only need to use water at this stage - no toothpaste necessary, unless recommended by your baby's dentist. Use the toothbrush to softly massage his gums even where there are no exposed teeth. This gets your baby used to the feeling of the toothbrush in his mouth and lets him learn that brushing is a pleasant experience, not something that should be frightening or irritating.

           

          Fluoride Needs

          Toothpaste should not be used on babies younger than the age of two, because babies cannot expectorate (spit it out).

          Fluoride is a good thing in the right amount at the right developmental stage, but not during infancy. Start your little one on fluoride-free infant and toddler toothpaste, such as My First Colgate, then when your dentist recommends switching to a fluoride toothpaste or when your child is around 2 years old.

          To be certain of the right time to switch your child over to fluoride toothpaste, discuss your child's fluoride and dental care needs with your dentist or pediatrician.

           

          Does it Taste Good?

          When your child passes the infancy stage and is ready to use toothpaste, go ahead and taste your little one's new toothpaste before using it in his mouth. Look for mildly sweet toothpaste that feels soft and natural as you rub it across your gums. This taste test is helpful, because most young children do not enjoy strong flavors. That means the minty-fresh toothpaste you enjoy could make your child cringe with discomfort. Look for more kid-friendly flavors, such as bubblegum or fruit.

          Treasure the Memory

          After you have chosen the right toothpaste for your baby and have brushed his first teeth, be sure to take some pictures of that beautiful little toothy smile for your scrapbook or photo album. The photos turn an otherwise ordinary first teeth, baby toothpaste and fluoride experience into a treasured memory.
