Navigating your busy life while trying to strike a balance isn’t always easy. When achieved, this balance can help reduce your stress levels, foster healthy relationships, and allow you to chase and achieve bigger goals. Fisher-Price has three tips to help you and your baby find the perfect balance every day.

1. Creating balance for yourself

Reduce your stress levels by taking a five-minute ‘vacation’. The Canadian Mental Health Association recommends we taking five minutes a day to recharge by daydreaming about a person, place, idea, or about anything at all. Prioritising your needs, and allocating your spending accordingly, reduces your financial stress. Finding multifunctional toys, which grow as your baby does, is a good way of investing as they reduce the need to buy products at every stage of development. Something as simple as accepting a compliment does wonders – plus reflecting on the it after the fact makes us feel good, and allows us to be kinder to, and appreciate ourselves more.

2. Creating balance for your baby

A Walker is an ideal way for your baby to find balance. The Fisher-Price 2-Sided Steady Speed Walker is an interactive learning toy that “grows” with your baby. All the way from sitting, to pulling up, to finally taking their first steps. Theunique, car-theme lets little ones stand and push along from either side, and both sides feature a variety of engaging activities. Smart Stages technology helps teach the alphabet, opposites, and counting as little drivers “cruise” around.

Features and benefits of the walker include: 3 ways to play as baby grows from sitting to standing to walking all around; 3 Smart Stages learning levels with 50+ songs, sounds and phrases that teach the alphabet, counting and opposites; 10+ activities help keep baby busy, including pretend car dashboard with light-up steering wheel, 3 shape blocks to sort, and more; and, helps develop fine and gross motor skills while introducing early academics for infants and toddlers ages 6 months to 3 years.

3. Creating balance for you both

Support structures help ease any pressure you and your baby may be feeling. Find advice from support groups or forums or ask a family member or friend to lend a hand when you need it. We all get sick, and accidents happen, knowing you have strength in numbers helps you navigate the challenges you face.

Friendships can help you understand that you’re not alone, and babies find a different kind of stimulation when playing with other children. Play dates can help to support both of your needs, and they’re a great opportunity to have fun and reconnect with friends.
