bumbokid.jpgbumbo-seat-lime.jpgI wish I’d known about the bumbo seat earlier. It’s a seat that allows your infant to sit up without your help. It’s strange looking and makes your baby look strange sitting in it, but let me tell you mommies and daddies, you’ll love this thing. Think *hands free.* According to the company, as soon as your baby can safetly hold his head up, he can use the bumbo seat. It also says that your baby can use it for more than a year. So it seems as if it can be used as a chair later on, even after your little one can sit up on his own.

Git it: This thing is nearly impossible to buy in Orlando. I went to the Babies R Us on Colonial and the one in Altamonte only to find empty shelves. I also found empty shelves at the Target on Colonial and at Millenia. I resorted to buying it on Ebay from a seller that had the cheapest shipping (he doesn’t seem to be selling any more right now, but here’s a link for all the ones on Ebay). I got excellent service and recommend buying it online - save the gas hassle of driving around.

It’s pretty much $39.95 everywhere and comes in a variety of colors, although I like the green one the best.
