My thinking with the cloth diapers would be to have some to use at home but on the go just use disposables cause yeah carrying used diapers around would be impracticable.

The beans in a bean bag chair are polystyrene beads about 2-4mm in dia.

Makes a truly insane mess if the bag gets opened. The beads stick to any surface with a charge on it.

We've got a one of those (I think it's this one, or similar -- we got it on eBay). When the baby's new-born, you set it near the top. As the baby gets older, you move the base down. Now that Alice (our youngest) can pull herself up, the base is set to the lowest height.



We don't have a choice -- our banister doesn't start until the third step.

You do NOT want this kind of thing in your house. I know of one case, where the child in the scooter stage, chasing a toy, worked is way into the tipped over cube and put his head thru the handle. He was discovered before strangling but it could have been very bad.
