Baby’s Bluetooth Pacifier

Baby's Bluetooth Pacifier

BABY’S BLUETOOTH PACIFIER

As seen on CSI: Cyber
The first time we saw the world’s smartest pacifier was at last week’s episode ‘Heart Me’ of CSI: Cyber.
When we saw Ted Danson with the bluetooth pacifier we looked it up immediately to see if it was real and yes, it was.

Baby's Bluetooth Pacifier

About World’s First Bluetooth™ Smart Baby Pacifier – the Pacif-i™

  • Measures a baby’s temperature and passes it to a parent’s smartphone via free app
  • The app determines when the temperature is the most accurate and then time-stamps and plots the temperature data in a graph.  Via the app, parents can record when medication was administered, set-up alerts/ reminders and share the data with carers and medical professionals.
  • The pacifier also features a buzzer alarm that can be activated via the smartphone when it has been misplaced or hidden by a child. The in-built proximity sensor allows parents to monitor pacifier’s location. Within the app,  parents can set the distance, up to a range of 20 metres, for the alarm to be triggered when this is breached.
  • Using a low-energy Bluetooth Smart chip, provided by leading chip developers Nordic Semiconducter, Pacif-i™ has a battery life of more than one year.

Classic Baby Books

Classic Baby Books - BabyLit.com

CLASSIC BABY BOOKS

Chicklit, oh yes, that’s something we know all too well, but BabyLit, that term was a new one. So we entered a new world and found this amazing website called BabyLit.com

Here’s a bit about the story behind BabyLit.com, about why babies need classic literature.

At BabyLit, they believe in the power of reading. The reason why ? Books take us places. Good places. And when we read with a child, we go places together. It’s more than just reading. It’s learning. It’s experiencing. It’s growing.

With the timeless popularity of classic writers like Lewis Carroll, Charlotte Bronte, Jane Austen, and William Shakespeare, BabyLit® is a fashionable way to introduce your toddler to the world of classic literature.

At BabyMoon Travel, we are passionate about books too! We picked our favorites to read for your baby.

1. Pride & Prejudice ($9,99 at BabyLit.com)

Introduce your little bibliophile to the romantic world of Jane Austen in Pride & Prejudice: A BabyLit® Counting Primer. Stroll through 1 English village to meet 2 rich gentlemen and discover what happens when the 5 Bennet sisters encounter 4 marriage proposals! Alison Oliver’s charming illustrations accompany Jennifer Adams’ clever, simple text to make this take on a beloved classic perfect for little ones.

2.The Wonderful Wizard of Oz ($9,99 at BabyLit.com)Classic Baby Books - BabyLit.com

There’s more to the story than just lions, tigers, and bears – there are also so many colors to explore! From the wicked witch and her evil black dress, to the good witch Glinda and her bright pink socks, you’ll find all of the familiar characters of Oz decked out in brilliant technicolor!

3. A Christmas Carol ($9,99 at BabyLit.com)

Take a walk with the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Yet to Come in Little Master Dickens’ A Christmas Carol: A BabyLit® Colors Primer. See old Jacob Marley shaking silver chains, gold stars shining around the Ghost of Christmas Past, and a red scarf keeping Tiny Tim warm. This bright retelling of a Christmas classic will scare any “bah, humbug” feelings away.

Pregnancy Exercises for Mom-to-Be

We love infographics and this one especially. This handy chart shows expectant mothers how to exercise when pregnant.

According to CarePointHealth exercise during pregnancy is associated with multiple health benefits for both you and your baby, and is safe for most women from the time of conception to delivery. Staying active while pregnant can help prepare your body physically for labor and delivery, as well as boost your mood and energy levels.

Exercising regularly will also help you lose weight and recover faster following the birth of your baby. Here are essential exercise items you’ll need throughout pregnancy, a list of the top recommended exercises for moms-to-be, and exercise safety rules.

ABOUT OUR SIGNATURE ‘BABYMOON KEEPSAKETAG’

Show while travelling that you’re off on your babymoon. The pregnant belly shaped luggage tag is the perfect gift for expecting couples. After your babymoon, you can remove the address label and place a picture of your baby in it to make it the ultimate babymoon keepsake.

Review by Alice Metcalfe, UK, August 2014

For all those lucky enough to be heading off for a luxury holiday before baby arrives, check out this gorgeous leather luggage tag exclusive to BabyMoon.

The BabyMoon KeepsakeTAG makes for the perfect stylish accessory for your suitcase, so much better than those plastic tags you end up buying in a hurry at the airport. I had one sent to me and I love it. The leather smells wonderful and it feels good quality, plus when  I am not travelling, I plan to pop a photo of the little ones inside as a special keepsake.

Happy and stylish holidaying!
