Be watchful
Toys offer the parents a chance to relax and rest while their child actively plays (kids are always so full of seemingly inexhaustible energy). Yet, as a great parent, you know that playtime isn’t simply a matter of giving your child something to entertain themselves with while you go and do something else.
Always keep a careful eye on your baby and ensure that playtime is a safe time. Oh, and enjoy your journey!
