Every Parent Needs A Bumbo. By Sarrisa on Oct 24, 2007 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

Every parent must own a Bumbo. It's the best baby item ever invented. The Bumbo is a small, round rubber chair that allows a baby with head control to sit up unassisted. Studies have shown that the Bumbo is good for spine development and it helps babies to learn to sit earlier. We love it because it was a great thing to take to restaurants, parent's house, friend's house, etc... This way our baby has a chair everywhere he goes for eating or looking around. I'm not sure what it's made of, but the Bumbo is also very easy to clean. Just wipe it with a wet washcloth after feedings and it's clean. We've had ours for a year and there's not a single food stain. It's just an all around great thing to have whether your baby can sit by himself or not.
