Fisher-Price Activity Box

Hello mommies!

Well this particular review has been more than overdue, credits to my mommy brain dabbling into multiple things!!

Here i am going to review one of our first and favourite toys, Activity box by Fisher Price.

This activity box/cube was gifted to A by one of my very good friends from school. It was introduced to A when he was 6 months old. Initially it didn't interest him much. Just the lights and sound, what more can we expect from a 6mo.

I used to put the cube infront of him and let him explore it. By the time he was 8 months old he knew everything that he could do with it, that was quite a lot, given the no. of activities. The shape sorting needs finer skills, so he couldn't do that, but he knew if if something was put from top it would come out from the hippos mouth.

I keep rotating the toys, but this is one toy that has constantly been on our shelf since the time we received it.

The box has 5 sides and multiple activities to engage your little one. 8 shapes that can be sorted from the top, these shapes spill out as the baby lifts the hippo's mouth on one ofvthe sides.
  • One side has a dummy phone and a colorful keypad to teach numbers and colors.
  • On another side there is this cute butterfly book that plays "abcd " and a number song when one flips the page.
  • One of the sides has a peekaboo lion. The interactive lion blurts out different things each time it is pushed down.
  • Below the peekaboo lion is a piano playing different notes and blinking lights.
  • There is also an attached spiral bead bar, rolling ball and leaf shaped clankers.
The Fisher price activity cube is good to enhance the fine motor skills, hand and eye coordination, sensory and linguistic skills. The toy can be introduced at 6 months and will be useful upto 3 years with the assorted activities it offers. What I love the most about it is it's variety, it can be a great toy even without having the batteries on.
It is easy to carry and quite sturdy. 
What may not work for few-
Too much variety in one box can be distracting for the child.
Expensive- the activity cube is priced at 2700 Rs. You may get it a little cheaper during online sale, the lowest price that I saw online was 2100.

All in all a great toy!

Stay at home mothers Vs Working mothers- Bloggers' marathon entry

Stay at home Vs Working Moms First of all, let me tweak the topic a bit; let me make it Stay at home moms and Working moms; let’s talk about the lives they lead, the challenges they face, the sacrifices they make and the rewards they take; for once let us NOT compare them. Versus often written as vs. is a Latin word meaning 'against' or it may mean to have a comparison or a competition between two teams/parties. Mothers do what they feel is best for their off-springs; whether they stay at home or work outside their homes, I would never wish to question their choices. When I was younger, studying and working, I couldn’t ever imagine myself not working or staying at home, changing diapers, feeding the baby and worrying about the piles of laundry and what to cook next. I could not visualize it because I have been brought up in a family where everyone worked and earned. My father has always insisted that women be financially independent. He has helped distant relative

Capsule wardrobe ideas for a new mom

Hello people, The New Year is right here with lots of excitement, hopes and new beginnings, to welcome the coming year with swag and style, we have come together to bring plethora of fashion inspiration in this "Fashion-a-thon" a fashion blog-train initiative by Ruchie of Wigglingpen . Before you move ahead and see what I have in store for you please check out what Sayeri says on her lovely fashion blog--  Here . I have never been a fashion enthusiast, but who doesn't like wearing nice clothes and look good? I am someone who would rather accentuate a simple kurti with a heavy dupatta or a jacket or a top/tee with a shrug or scarf.  Although, I try not to splurge, but don't know how i end myself up in piles of clothes with still nothing to wear. If you have read my other posts you will know that I am trying to go the minimal way and hence I have almost limited my shopping; if i have to buy a dress for myself, I give away one or two from my wardrobe. 

Prepping, Washing, Storing and Stripping the Cloth Diapers

You have landed on this page, probably because you are keen on starting to cloth diaper your baby or you are already doing it and want to know, how others deal with cloth diapers’ nitty-gritties. We begin with prepping the diapers. Your fluff mail has arrived and you can’t wait to see the little bums dressed bright and beautiful; but  heyy, hold on; you’ve got to wait! It is important to prepare the diapers for use, mainly for two reasons: a.        Hygiene: Just like you wash any other piece of cloth before putting it on to your baby’s sensitive skin, these diapers too need to be pre-washed. b.        Absorbency: The natural fibres (cotton and hemp) have residual oil that restricts the absorbency, hence you need multiple washes before you can use them Now, the question is how do you prep the diapers? Mostly you will find the prepping and washing instructions mentioned on the packaging that the diapers come in. However, the simplest way to prep is giving a wash in dete
