Why buy a playpen for newborn?
1. Solve the numb hands
2. Practice standing or learning to walk
3. Exercise the baby's independence ability
1. Solve the numb hands
With a playpen for kids, mom can do her own thing with both hands free.
Babies are safe in this area. If there is no children's playpen, the baby will crawl out of the range of the crawling mat from time to time when learning to crawl, increasing the risk of the baby.
2. Practice standing or learning to walk
Age-appropriate babies can practice standing or toddlers while leaning against the playpen. When the baby is learning to walk, parents must remember not to pull the baby's buttocks or hang the baby's hands and buttocks for "help". Baby learning to walk, will affect the baby's bone development.
3. Exercise the baby's independence ability
The children's playpen can divide the home into an independent area, the baby can play freely in this area, exercise the baby's independent ability and develop the brain. Baby's toys can also be placed in this enclosure.
How to quickly choose a suitable children portable playpen?
1. Look at the side panel height at the lowest point
2. Look at the thickness of the playpen
3. The ability to see anti-skid4. Look at the number of screws
5. Look at the convenience of storage
6. Other structural details
The purchase requirements for the baby's items are safe! The second is cost performance and durability.
Pay attention to these 6 points that you must pay attention to when choosing a children's playpen, and you can basically quickly find a children's playpen suitable for your family.
1. Look at the side panel height at the lowest point
According to the national standard GB 29281-2012 "Safety Requirements for Playpens and Children's Beds for Similar Purposes", the minimum vertical distance between any foothold and the upper surface of the guardrail is at least 600mm.
But many businesses here will use the highest point of the side panel to measure the vertical distance from the ground. But in fact, when the distance to the ground is measured from the lowest point of the side plate, it is often less than 60cm, which is a hidden danger.
Therefore, when purchasing, regarding the height of the playpen, we should pay the most attention to the shortest side panel, or the distance between the stepping point and the lowest point at the top of the side panel should not be less than 60cm.
2. Look at the thickness of the playpen
In fact, the activities in the baby playpen are not limited to climbing. When you first unlock new skills, bumps are inevitable. If you accidentally bump into the playpen, if the playpen is too hard, it will easily hurt the baby.
The playpen has a certain thickness, so it is not easy to be pushed to achieve the effect of protection. Therefore, when purchasing a playpen, you have to pay attention to its thickness and soft and hard texture.
3. The ability to see anti-skid
a. The suction cup playpen is suitable for use on smooth floors and has more grip.
b. Silicone pad strip playpen is suitable for use on floor mats, with good anti-slip effect.
You can choose a more suitable anti-skid method according to your own use scene. Anti-skid is very important, if the playpen can be easily "pushed away" by the baby, then the playpen is of little significance.
4. Look at the number of screws
This is a matter of details, the number of screws and the installation location are also where we must pay attention.
The best playpens are those with as few screws as possible, and the ones with the most indentation the better. However, if the purchased playpen has many screws, we have to process it at home, tighten the screws as much as possible, and stick a protective sticker to prevent the baby from using it to exercise his finger strength.
5. Look at the convenience of storage
If the area of the home is small and the space is not large, choose a folding playpen, which is convenient for storage and higher security.
But even if we buy a non-folding playpen, our installation requirements are still very high. For safety and robustness, the general installation process requires that the two playpen side panels be tightly nested, and the suction cups have strong suction to prevent the playpen from easily moving and collapsing.
6. Other structural details
The playpen we bought needs to be checked first to see if there are burrs or plastic debris on the surface. If necessary, deal with it in time, otherwise it will easily stab the baby, and some small particles will not know if they are eaten.
The gap between the side panels of the playpen and the internal structure of the side panel should not be too small or too large. If it is too small, fingers may be pinched, and if the baby is too large, the head and neck may be pinched if the head passes through.
The lock of the playpen is also a detail that is easily overlooked. Some people have tested it, and the design of the double buckle is the best, the second is the pull bolt, the buckle is the easiest to open, and the baby can learn to escape by himself after a few times .
