                    Books are an important staple in any household with babies or toddlers. They provide so much support for learning and not just learning to read.

                    During the first year of life, your baby's skin is actually quite different than yours. It’s more soft and pristine of course, but there are actual anatomical differences between their skin and ours. Their skin is reasonably more sensitive because it is much thinner.

                    As their mom, I’m trying to figure out what the heck is going on. Did I feed them too much sugar, are they over-tired (I will never understand why children don’t sleep when they are overtired)? Then it hits me. FULL MOON!

                    It can get a little mess though, so make sure you have great bib on hand--our Silicone Bib is amazing for snack and meal times. Remember, your toddlers are exercising their independence and so they may be resistant to new foods at first, which is just another reason to make snack time fun and easy.
