Let’s be totally honest, mamas; many of the everyday baby items that we use can err more on the practical than the radical when it comes to design. And while design-led functionality is all the rage when it comes to cars, laptops and smartphones, how many of us can say we’re truly wowed by our baby bottles or sterilisers?
So hooray for Hong Kong children’s stalwarts, Hip Little Bubba! This online boutique is committed to bringing innovative but still highly practical products to us here in the ‘Kong, often before anyone else. The website is crammed full of products that make our lives easier, most of which make gorgeous gifts, and we’ve got a sneaky peek at some of the great new ideas to hit their shelves, including these ingenious buys.
Clockwise from top left: These reusable food pouches by Sinchies are exclusive to Hip Little Bubba. Eating on the go becomes a doddle, and not just for wee weaners, as these make great lunchbox additions for older kids too. The b.box Baby Bottle combines a formula dispenser with a regular bottle, halving the number of items you need to tote around. The Wean Machine is the easiest solution we’ve seen to the age-old hassle of pureeing your baby’s food, combining all the tools you need into one easily washed and sterilised piece of kitchen kit. The b.box Nappy Caddy keeps all your baby changing bits and bobs handy, and even comes with a cute wipe-clean change mat – a perfect baby shower gift! The mumi and bubi Solids Starter Kit is ideal for storing your freshly-made baby food, with non-toxic and portion controlled trays allowing for quick and easy freezing. Top baby brand Skip Hop comes up trumps again with their Grab & Go Stroller Organiser, keeping snacks and drinks well insulated, and all your other essentials conveniently to hand.
