 Belly Bandit

 

 

 

 

The Belly Bandit® is an abdominal compression binder designed to help you get your body back to its former fabulousness post childbirth.

Not only does the Belly Bandit® help reduce uncomfortable uterine swelling, it aids in decreasing bloating caused by water retention, and gives additional support for Mummy’s weary legs & back. For you breastfeeding mums, there’s a bonus… the Belly Bandit® will help you with your posture during feedings, and may help to reduce the all too common back & shoulder pain associated with breastfeeding. Ultimately, the Belly Bandit® will aid in getting you back to your pre pregnancy hotness faster than ever!

 

Who knew it could be so easy?

Belly Bandit ModelSmart women around the world that’s who! The binding of a woman’s abdomen post delivery has been used therapeutically for centuries all over the globe. Increased and constant pressure against the abdominal area has many benefits. It has been known to help flatten the belly and redefine the waistline while helping you keep your back straight, thus minimizing associated pain and fatigue.

 

This is simply a breathable and comfy exclusively tailored abdominal wrap to assist your body in regaining its former beauty and shape. The Belly Bandit® provides strong support to help relieve discomfort and give you that extra boost of confidence you deserve after childbirth. Our smooth lightweight construction is designed to be worn comfortably under all of your clothes and our tagless design won’t irritate your skin.

 

 

 

Why Belly Bandit?

The Belly Bandit® post pregnancy abdominal binder is a seamless 9" elastic band designed to apply pressure to the abdominal area after delivery. Belly Bandit® provides support and compression to abdominal muscles while preserving its shape and durability. When applied correctly, Belly Bandit® will increase blood circulation around the abdomen, facilitating reverse tissue expansion and diminishing uterine swelling without restricting breathing or muscle re-development. Belly Bandit® assists women to easily comply with recovery guidelines following a cesarean section. In addition, Belly Bandit® aids with increased mobility, thereby decreasing common complaints of post partum stasis or c section woes.

Lego

 

 

 

 

 

LEGO products are developed in such a way that there is something for all ages and stages of development. From kindergarten toddlers, schoolchildren and teenagers to young-at-heart adults. There’s something for everyone - whether you prefer making things up as you go or building predesigned models.


Pre-school products
Pre-school products are the category for children who haven't yet started school. The products are specially developed to cater for the capabilities of the youngest children- encouraging them through creative play to use their hands and develop their motor skills.

In the 1970s LEGO DUPLO was launched as the big brick for the small hand. Today the series comprises both loose bricks - so that the child can build entirely what comes into its mind - and play themes - for example, airport, train and castle. The series is graded in difficulty for children aged 2-6 years.

Safety and quality are key features of the Pre-school range. The elements are large enough for children to play with without swallowing them, and thanks to the way they have been moulded no bits can fall off.

VTech Educational Toys
Educational Benefits
Motor Skills

Motor skills are your baby’s physical abilities. Gross motor skills involve the whole body, so include walking, crawling etc. Fine motor skills involve the hands and fingers so include more delicate movements like pressing buttons, gripping, twisting levers and dials etc.

Independent Play
This is the ability to be able to play with a toy without help from an adult. This helps to give kids confidence in themselves.

Co-operative Play
Is the ability to play with other children and involves social skills like sharing, working together as a team and planning games together.

Visualisation & Memory
This is the ability to imagine things, to remember what something looks like when you can no longer see it, and to picture something in your head even if you have never seen it.

Hand-Eye Co-ordination
Is what a baby needs to be able to reach out for a particular object. Pressing buttons etc to get a response helps develop this skill which is needed to help develop fine motor skills and other abilities.

Imitative Play
Is when a child pretends to be someone else such as a familiar adult. This involves the ability to realise that other people are separate from ourselves, some knowledge and understanding of the world, and recognising objects and remembering what adults use them for.
          
Visual Awareness
Is the ability to see objects clearly and to respond to them, being aware of how near or far away something is, and being able to tell where one object ends and another begins.

Auditory Stimulation
Develops a baby’s ability to tell the difference between many kinds of sounds. Babies are particularly attracted to the sound of the human voice, and music has also been shown to be beneficial for a baby’s development.

Tactile Stimulation
Develops a baby’s ability to tell the difference between various kinds of textures such as hard and soft, fluffy and shiny and so on.

Role Play
Is when a child pretends to be someone else in play, perhaps a shop keeper, firefighter or police officer. This involves social skills such as knowledge of how other people play a part in the world, using the imagination for extended periods of time, and considering other people’s points of view.

Bathroom Safety Tip for Kids

E-mail Print PDF
The bathroom can be fun during bath time, but there are many areas that are also hazardous.

  • Drowning can occur in less than 2" of water. NEVER leave a child unattended in a bathtub, not even for a moment; nor should a child be left in the bathtub in the care of an older sibling. Also, keep all toilets locked.
  • To prevent burns set your hot water heater to 120 degrees Fahrenheit or lower. Always check water temperature before placing your child in the tub. Swirl water around with your hand to eliminate any hot spots.
  • Prevent your child from bumping his or her head by using a spout cover.
  • Keep cabinets and drawers locked to prevent children from accessing toothpaste, perfumes, soaps, lotions, deodorant, mouthwash, etc – all of which can be dangerous if ingested. Also, store razors and razor blades in a locked cabinet or drawer. In the tub, keep soaps and shampoos out of your child’s reach.
  • To prevent poisoning, do not rely on child-resistant caps to prevent your child from accessing medicine. Keep all medicines, including vitamins, in a locked closet or up high and completely out of reach.
  • Prevent slips in the bathroom by placing slip-resistant mats in the tub and a slip-resistant pad under bath mats.

Kitchen Safety Tips for Kids

E-mail Print PDF

Your kitchen poses many dangers to your child, including poisonous materials, choking hazards and hot surfaces. It is best to avoid making the kitchen a play space and, in general, minimize the amount of time your child spends in the kitchen. Make the area as uninteresting as possible to curious children and follow these guidelines:


  • Cabinets and drawers contain many hazards, such as cleaning supplies that are toxic, plastic bags which pose a suffocation and choking hazard, breakable and sharp objects, and food that can be a choking hazard. Be sure to lock all cabinets and drawers to keep your child away from the contents. Also move all cleaning supplies, including dishwasher detergent to a locked closet or a cabinet that is up high and out of your child’s reach.
  • Spices and seasonings can be dangerous, including salt for its iodine, as well as vanilla and cooking wine for their alcohol. Be sure to keep those items in a locked cabinet or drawer.
  • Knives can be dangerous, even when they are on a countertop and seemingly out of your child’s reach. Your child can reach for the knives while you are carrying him so it is best to keep them in a locked drawer.
  • Ovens and stoves are hot and can burn your child. It is a good idea to use the back burners of your stove whenever possible and remember to turn pot and pan handles in, and away from the edge of the stove. Reinforce with your toddler that the oven is hot and he or she should not touch it. To prevent burns and accidental fires, keep your countertop appliances unplugged when not in use and keep your oven and stove knobs locked.
  • Another way to prevent burns is to keep drinks and dishesaway from the edges of tables and counters.
  • Keep appliances such as refrigerator, dishwasher and garbage disposal locked to prevent your child from accessing sharp or breakable objects as well as choking hazards.
