The Parklon Playmat

Sep 1st

Was at the Parenthood Expo at Mid Valley two weeks ago when I decided to get Paul a new playmat to replace the Eva puzzlemat. Bought this portable Parklon playmat for RM130 (exhibition price)! .

The Parklon Baby Mat


The Parklon logo embossed into the mat, seen when folded.

Extremely light (I think less than 1 kg) , I now bring this mat to my in-law's place on weekdays where he gets to roll around the living room safely. On weekends, the mat is positioned in my own living room and Paul will happily bounce along. The cushioning is really quite outstanding, as the designers claim, and Paul can topple over safely without getting hurt.


This photo is a bit blurred because Paul can move really quickly on the mat now and it's really hard to get him to stay still for a proper shot! So far this is my BEST EVER purchase for Paul!! So good that I'm writing this post just to rave about the mat!

The Parklon playmat is distributed by Coby Haus. They also carry a more luxurious version of the mat which weighs from 6.5 kgs to 12 kgs, which is available at all Mothercare stores. That one is really pricey though, about RM399 to RM599! We figured we would get the cheaper version first, and the best thing is, this is PORTABLE!!

How it works these days.

Feed the baby, mop the baby's face, put the baby down in his crib, play peekaboo and he seems happy. And then he tumbles over, crawls for his dummy, puts it in his mouth *PEACE*!!! It's a sign he's about to sleep.

And so I walk out, take my computer, turn it on, connect to the net, ready to be good ole' me again while my Paulie boy drifts into his dreamland of marshmallows and cream.

I could live like this…

…

*Baby wails*

…

Alas.

It's back to playing with the baby.

baby, Paul, ramblings

One of these days I need to sit down, spend just an hour to myself, just loafing around and doing nothing, while I consider the things that are going on in my life.

One of these days.

Can you say, ‘Gimme a five?’

Pardon me, but this proud Mama has got to gloat. We've been sort of training Paul how to return high-fives, and on Saturday morning, he surprised me with this very, very lucky shoot of awesome high-fives!

Now if I can only get him to give people fives on demand. Right now he seems to only respond to me!!!

baby, milestones, Paul
