When I had my first baby, I hated the idea of playards. They were ugly, bulky, and just seemed so unnecessary. However, playards can actually be one of the best purchases you make for you and your baby--especially if you pick a playard that's lightweight, easy to use, and compact! The UPPAbaby Remi playard offers all of the above while also being beautiful AND safe for your little one. The triple-layer air mesh mattress allows your baby to be comfortable for a good night's sleep but is also machine washable for inevitable messes. Let's check out a fun way one of our Cubby moms uses her UPPAbaby Remi!
If you have a playard or are wondering if it's really worth the investment, you can see in this video that they aren't just for sleep when you're traveling! Here are some of my favorite ways to use a playard:
- Travel crib
- Room sharing with another sibling or have limited space
- Portable crib if you move frequently
- Safe, independent playtime when you're busy doing chores or showering
- Daytime naps
- Trips to the park or beach to keep baby safe
- Sports games for older siblings
- Newborn bassinet in your bedroom
- In the backyard while you garden or do yard work
- Ball pit
- Camping
- Babysitting or grandma's house
