Teething fashion Think of a celeb with kids and chances are they have Sophie the teething giraffe. No… really! Sophie has been a French favourite for about 40 years and it doubles as a teething relief and a special toy.
Capture the moment Whether it’s a christening, Mother’s Day or a special birthday, sometimes an heirloom-worthy gift is in order. Jewellery from Small Print is just such a memento. Imprinted with your baby’s fingerprint, it will be treasured for ever and because each piece is made of sterling silver, it will last through the years as well. Prices vary depending on style.

Warm as Toastees Similar to rashies, these lightweight wetsuits offer 50+ sun protection and keep them warm as the water cools. A zip at the back makes them quick to remove and cool colours make them appealing to kids. Designed by parents who found a gap in the market, Toastees are made of ultra light neoprene. On review, we found the sizes snug, but they are designed that way so bear this in mind when ordering. Toastees cost $40-$45 depending on size. They are available at www.toasteeswetsuits.com.au
