Parenting Product Insights

For me, my main criteria was portability and comfort. I wanted something light, easy to carry or pull like a trolley, since I often travelled with just myself and my kid. Also, being able to fold it up with one hand was crucial, since the other hand was usually holding my son! And some extra storage space below for the bits and bobs you end up needing to carry around didn't hurt either.
That's a good point about considering one's main priority beforehand! I remember wishing I'd thought of that when selecting a stroller. It's so easy to get spoilt for choice or pick something unsuitable.

Some of my mommy friends rave about their electric steam cookers for sterilization and easy cooking. Others love those cute mini blenders for baby food prep!
I found that reusable food pouches were a convenient way to store homemade baby food and a hit with my child because they're easy to hold and feed from. Less mess, too!

You're right; each child gear is designed to cater specifically to certain stages and often serves a unique purpose! The selection process can be overwhelming, especially for new parents navigating through unfamiliar territory. I remember the excitement of preparing for my first child and feeling so lost looking at all the options available. Even with just two kids, it's surprising how much the needs vary during their growth stages!
Yeah, even though there are many options out there, some gear is definitely more helpful than others! It often seems like parents' preferences and recommendations can help us make the right choices. Still, it is a very individual thing, so it can be quite daunting to pick out these large items without trying them firsthand.

On that note, do share some insights on helpful products for older kids beyond the toddler stage, especially for keeping them entertained indoors.
Older kids who are beyond the toddler stage would surely love fun and educational toys and games that encourage creativity! Art sets, board games and sports equipment could provide hours of fun and keep them engaged. For instance, a mini-pool or basketball hoop could be a cool indoor entertainment option, and DIY art kits or science experiment toys could excite their curiosity. As they navigate screen time limits, devices could also be a distraction, albeit a temporary one.
