Healthy skin for baby
Moo Goo was first made when the founder adapted a cream used in dairy farms to help a family member with a skin problem. It was so successful, it spawned a range of products, one of which is Moo Goo Scalp Cream. This moisturiser controls the yeast on the skin using natural ingredients, allowing your baby’s skin (and your own!) to return to a healthy condition. Applied after washing, the skin should regain its glow within a few days. Moo Goo products are available at Elements 3, Buderim 5476 8835, Coolum Village Amcal Pharmacy, 5546 2111 and Mrs Flannery’s Natural Grocer, Maroochydore 07 5479 3522. Not all products are available at all stockists. Visit www.moogoo.com.au for more information.
Reduce your landfill
It’s a dilemma for many parents: cloth or disposable? One is good for the environment, the other is way more convenient. The decision has been easier in Europe, where biodegradable disposables are used widely. Now they can help you sleep soundly too. Although a little more expensive Danish Bambo nappies are now available in Australia. Available through Mums Happy Nappies, phone 1300 760 140 or visit www.mumshappynappies.com.au or www.hellocharlie.com.au. Why not change your baby wipes too? Clearly Herbal Baby Wipes are equally as good for the environment and safe for your baby. They come with a pleasant aroma of Lavender and Chamomile and include no alcohol, chlorine or lanolin to harm your baby. Not to be confused with Bambo, their Bamboo Cloth Wipes are made from 100% natural bamboo fabric which offers natural antibacterial properties! Available online at www.theproductstore.com.au and www.nappysupplies.com.au
Flights of fancy
We all know mobiles stimulate your baby as they lie in their cot and if you are going to have one, why not make it art? This delightful whimsical mobile by artist Kristin Loffer Theiss features several felt animals measuring about 15-19cm in height. They rotate around a turquoise egg and provide hours of entertainment. Available online at www.kindergallery.com
Make it last with a cast
You may never look this way again, so relish your condition and preserve it for posterity with a Belly Art Casting Kit. Safe and easy to use, these kits can be used in the comfort of your own home.

How long has that been there?
You have better things to think about now, than how long your food has been in the fridge… problem is, you want to make sure you don’t keep baby products too long. That’s where the Days Ago Digital Counter (as seen on Oprah) comes in. This little timing device attaches to jars and cans with a magnet, band or suction and it counts the amount of time lapsed at the push of a button. Days Ago comes two to a pack.

The food flies off the plate!

RRP $109 and available from www.theproductstore.com.au The famous lullaby Rock a Bye Baby has been given a whole new approach. We found a local boat builder who custom makes cradles that simulates the 3 dimensional movement of a boat at sea. The cradle boat was born to imitate the natural movement a baby feels in the womb. It can be hung directly from the ceiling or from a flexible stand (pictured). With these beautifully handcrafted wooden cradles, sleep time will be plain sailing.
