subject: The Graco Pack And Play Is A Life Saver For New Parents [print this page] How in the world did parents of young children ever get through the day before the invention of the Graco pack and play? This is without a doubt one of the greatest inventions of our times. If one item needed to be recommended to new parents, an item that would never be left unused, this is it.
Imagine a piece of baby furniture that is so useful, and weighs only twelve pounds. This is it. Wheels which are attached at the base of the unit make this easy to maneuver item even easier. Just about anyone will be able to move it from room to room with little or no effort.
Anyone who has a newborn in the house is sure to be delighted to own this unit. So many items are usually purchased in anticipation of a new baby, and never used. Anyone with a one year old can show a stack of unused purchases, where they wish they had saved the money. This is money that could have been used for the staggering amount which has undoubtedly been spent on diapers.
The Graco bassinet model can be used from day one. The bassinet feature is raised above the rest of the pack and play, making it easier for parents to place the child to sleep, or remove them from a nap. This removable bassinet can be used for as long as a usual bassinet would be. It can then be removed from the rest of the unit and stored for future use. The lower part of the unit is now available to a larger, older baby.
This unit is especially useful for a new mother who has just arrived home from delivery. An upstairs nursery can be quite challenging in the first weeks following a baby being born. This may be even more so for a woman who has had a cesarean section. Rather than going up and down stairs throughout the day, this fantastic addition is perfect for those frequent newborn nap times.
Traveling with children can feel like a juggling act. This is especially so for those traveling with an infant. What to bring along, and where the baby will sleep are major questions to ask. Borrowing a crib may be an option at times, and other times may not. Parents may also not be comfortable with their child sleeping in a strange bed. This lightweight Graco invention eliminates this issue.
This excellent piece of baby furniture is simple to carry along. This already lightweight unit folds up to a size smaller than most suitcases. It comes with cover that will keep it clean, so storage in an automobile's trunk is not a problem at all. The mat can be easily covered with a sheet, so spills and other mishaps may be quickly and easily cleaned, leaving the child comfortable and secure.
The convenience of the Graco pack and play makes it an item that should be purchased by any new parent.
