Hi! This is Sophie and she is in charge of the Hints and Tips page.If you have any tips that would be useful on this page, can you send them in to Sophie? Here are some tips that I have been sent already.

Fussy Eaters.
If you have a very fussy baby  who turns her nose up at most of the foods you offer, try this trick:~
Sit your babyz in the high-chair, in the kitchen, on the left hand side of the screen.
Put a selection of jars and dishes on the tray of the chair.
Leave your babyz to it!
They will throw a lot of it around, but it goes off the edge of the screen so you don`t have to clean up! If you want the chair in the middle of the room, open every window and door, then you only have to clean the floor when they`ve finished eating. Whilst they are throwing the food around, they will eat the odd handful, and will be very happy babyz!
Thanks to ABC for this tip. I`ve tried it and it works!

Unwell babyz.
If you have a babyz who is coughing and looking unwell, there are a few steps you can take to help them get better.
First, wrap your babyz up nice and warm.
Then, put them into their high-chair and give them three squirts of medicine.
Let them have lots to drink from the milk bottle.
Put them in the cot to have a sleep. After about 20 minutes, wake them up and give them more medicine and a drink(change them if they need it)
Do this often and they will be well in a day or two.

Thanks, Elly, for sending these next tips in!

Hint How to get a baby to dress itself:
         After baby comes out of tub, Lay some clothes on the ground.
Hold one article at a time in front of Baby.  Shake the piece of article
in front of baby till she/he grabs it.  The baby will shake it a few
times.  If they want to wear it, they will throw it on themselves. If
they don`t, they will throw it on the floor. Eventually the baby willpick
up the clothes faster and faster.

((I didn`t know babyz did this, but I tried it, and it`s true. My babyz dressed herself, then went and looked in the mirror))

To prevent a baby from hurting itself after sliding down the slide:
Take some pillows and put them at the end of the slide, or plant some
flowers.  My baby prefers the pillow.

believe what happens

I hope these are useful,
