3. Ziza Highchair and Tray
The best way to help your baby start weaning so making sure they are sitting up straight and securely strapped into a highchair. An upright position will ensure that they can swallow properly.
Weaning is a messy process and babies discover the taste (and feel!) of new foods. This can often end up all over the place. Invest in a highchair such as the Ziza Highchair so your home can stay stylish and clean, with easy to wipe surfaces and a detachable machine washable tray.
4. Ziza Play Table and Chairs
Already have a highchair? Why not grab yourself a play table and chair set, ideal for when your little once is on the move. Play tables and chairs encourage the Montessori method, where small children can start to become more independent. This will be especially useful as little ones start becoming more confident with feeding themselves.

With a robust and stylish design that fits seamlessly into the modern kitchen, you can have peace of mind that little hands are kept away from hot surfaces and stove controls.
