Zander discovered the kitchen cupboards yesterday morning while playing in his walking ring. Unfortunately for him he can't open them yet as his arms are too short and the walking ring blocks the door from opening completely. He is like a Peeping Tom now every time he gets a few minutes in the walking ring. He immediately speeds off to the kitchen to try and open the cupboards. Until he can crawl or walk, I doubt he'll be able to, but I still keep a watchful eye on him since we didn't really childproof our home yet (bad, bad, I know). Chris came up with an idea, which I still can't really decide whether I like or dislike. He suggested we bake Zander some healthy cookies and put it in a jar in a cupboard in the kitchen for Zander to "discover" when he finally manage to open the cupboard doors. My worry is that it might encourage him to open cupboards and I don't want him to (innocently) do it at other people's homes because he might think he's allowed to do it there as well. But to not to be a real spoil sport I think we'll install safety locks on all the cupboards, except the one where we plan to keep his cookies (and nothing else, except maybe a few pieces of Tupperware). What do you think?
So I am now looking for healthy cookie recipes for babies or toddlers. If you know any, please feel free to post it in the comment box!
To me a walking ring means a few minutes’ peace. Time to make a quick cup of coffee, read an email or write my blog.
We are all familiar with the walking ring. We all grew up using one. Do you still remember how different the ones from back then looked compared to the ones from today? Do you suffer any consequences from using a walking ring? As a baby I was in mine for hours at a time.Yet, the walking ring has been condemned to being dangerous, bad for your baby, the list goes on. It’s all based on studies apparently. Some countries have even banned the walking ring. I respect that. I do think it can be dangerous when you don’t keep an eye on your child while in use. I also don’t think it’s good to leave your child in the walking ring all day as certain nerves are supposed to develop before others. According to studies, the child should preferably first crawl, then walk for the sake of mathematical development in the brain.
Do I condemn a walking ring? No, no, NO! If used correctly and supervised at all times, it can actually be a blessing!
What do you think?
