Stuff for Babies
Mementos:
Model Magic: Soft clay alternative. Stretchy and super lightweight. Used for creating footprints/handprints/Christmas ornaments.
Ink Print Pad: Didn’t like the footprint you got at the hospital and want a do-over? Baby in the NICU and never got a footprint? Use these ink pads to painlessly make your own, or give to family.
Diapering:
“Changing Pads:” Actually “incontinence pads” but we found these washable pads to be easier to use and more affordable than traditional changing pads. We even bought extra large ones for sick days; much easier to swap out a pad than change a set of sheets, believe me.
Spatula “brush” for barrier cream application
MEALTIME:
