So, maybe you are not a helicopter mom, exactly, but you do worry for the safety of your children. The only thing that can really give us a sense of peace is knowing that we have done our best for our kids. While being too over protective may not be conducive to childhood, it is something that is often hard for parents to overcome, so why not be safe than sorry.
GUAVA FAMILY GO CRIB
The Guava Family Go Crib is a safe and reliable travel crib that doesn’t have hinges or a bulky set up. This travel crib is inflatable and comes with gauges to determine when the bed has been properly set up. The crib is low to the floor and has no external metal pieces so should a toddler find his or her way out of this great device there would be little or no injury to the child.
*Customer Review: “As soon as you open up the GoCrib you get the sense that it is a carefully designed, well-made product. Everything: from the backpack with the instruction manual sleeve and separate pocket for the included pump, compression straps, and the crib itself, has been thoughtfully designed for ease of use. It’s sort of like how the Apple iPod was miles ahead of cheap MP3 players when it first launched.”
