Description
The perfect gift for expecting parents, the classic and hilarious Safe Baby Handling Tips is back with three times as many tips to keep you laughing while caring for your newborn. Worried about protecting your baby from the abundant harm of everyday living? Authors David and Kelly Sopp have you covered with Safe Baby Handling Tips, which offers laugh-out-loud guidance on baby care for anyone overwhelmed and befuddled-i.e., everyone-when it comes to caring for their new bundles of joy. With dozens of handling tips, readers will learn everything they need to keep their child alive and thriving beyond the first year. No, you can't stow them in the overhead compartment on flights. During playtime, babies prefer peek-a-boo to chess. And using a bath towel is far more safe and effective than putting your kiddo in the dryer. Beyond the safety tips, this handy guide also walks you through the many changes in lifestyle you'll face and keeps you on your toes with child-rearing quizzes. Why make everything up as you go along when this gifty, indispensable guide can show you how to be a little less incompetent as parents? You'll laugh, you'll cry (from sleep deprivation), and your baby will be safer for it.
