Yeah, I'm that Mom. The overprotective one. I'll admit it. So when we are at a dine-in restaurant, I'm the one who is using hand sanitizer and a baby wipe to disinfect the table we are eating at (or in my son's case, ON). Since his food generally doesn't stay on any plate or napkin that I attempt to feed him from, the next best thing I could figure would be some sort of placemat. But not just any placemat; I wanted something compact and easy to travel with, something easy to clean, something that looked pretty cool, but most importantly, something that was safe for my little guy to use as well as chew and suck on (as he does just about everything). After a bit of Internet research, low and behold, I came across mama-created Just Buzzin' By.
As with almost all mama-created products, CEO, Founder, and Scientist Sriti Misra Fusillo was in need of something to keep her from having to clean her floors numerous times due to her newly self-feeding daughter, but was having trouble finding something that met her needs and her stringent requirements. She decided to take matters into her own hands, and that was where Just Buzzin' By became a reality. And the rest of us mama's couldn't be more grateful. With Sriti's concern of PVC in baby and toddler products and her background in Molecular and Cellular Biology, she was able to invent SAFE placemats, bibs, and splashmats that were also effective, funky looking, and affordable. Besides being free of PVC, these items are also free of phthalates and lead, and are completely wipable and machine washable.
With prints like "Surfin'" and "Homerun", it's easy to find something for any little guy, no matter what they are into. And let's not forget the little girls, because honestly, I think those are even cuter with prints like "Couture" and "Pizelle". These (and many more) prints are available in Placemats [$22], Splashmats [$50], and Snap-Pocket Bibs [$22]. With these super cool prints and affordable prices, feel free to mix and match, or maybe even purchase an entire gift set [$40-$90] for your little one or for a friend. You can feel good knowing that these products are safe and your little one can also look good while using them!
Win it!
