Advice to young mothers. Manege for a child

Manege for a child causes a lot of controversy, even with experienced moms. Not everyone considers it necessary to acquire such an invention of mankind. And very much even in vain.

The main advantage of the arena is that the child can be in it without adult supervision. Of course, not very long. Mothers, who alone are engaged in both the baby and the household chores (that is, most Russian mothers), this is simply necessary. If a woman needs to move away from the baby for a little while, say, prepare a dinner or wash dishes, she can safely put him in a playpen, put toys there and be sure of the safety of his child.

Performs the arena for the child and other functions. For the full development of children need some time to give calm games, developing toys. This is how small motor skills develop, diligence and attentiveness.

It is not recommended to use a baby cot as an arena. First of all, the child should perceive it as a place to sleep, not games. Although the practice shows that many children like to play in the crib. And modern models with pendulums simply lead them to delight. But leaving a baby alone in such a structure is quite dangerous. Handles or feet can get stuck between the slats.

What makes a playpen for a child better? First, it is safer. Of course, if selected correctly. Secondly, it has more space. There are various sizes of playhouses. The more free space, the better for a baby. Thirdly, its walls are made of a mesh, which excludes the possibility of injury to the baby. There are also arenas, the walls of which are made of wooden rods. This option is better to choose for a child older.

Separately I want to mention the manege-bed. Reviews about such products diverge. Some mothers think that a child is uncomfortable sleeping in such a bed. It is said that the mattress in it is uncomfortable compared to traditional coconut for a normal baby crib. Other babies with pleasure at night sleep in these maneships, and play in the afternoon.

Bed-playpen consists of two tiers. The upper one is for the baby's sleep, and the lower one is for the games. Of course, as the child grows up, he will have to lay down to sleep on the lower level, because from the top he can simply fall out.

Many prefer a conventional baby crib bed-riding. Reviews, again, say that this is not exactly the right approach. To put the child to sleep better yet in an ordinary crib. The bed-playpen is good for visiting guests, as it is easily transformed.

When choosing a playpen for a child, pay attention to the materials from which it is made. They should be environmentally friendly so that the baby does not have an allergic reaction. Preferably the stalls, the bottom of which is covered with oilcloth. The baby can often regurgitate, so it will often have to be wiped. One of the main indicators when choosing this product is its height. The more it is, the less likely your baby is to fall out of the arena. If the structure is assembled with bolts, then all fasteners must be securely hidden from the children's eyes, otherwise the baby will try to disassemble it.

And remember: do not leave the child alone for long. The baby needs the care and attention of mom. Find the golden mean. Happiness to you and your child!
