PeaPod Plus



Sorry to sound like a consumer review guide (wait--no, I'm not sorry, darn it--it's MY blog!), but have another children's product to rave about. Just received our Pea Pod Plus travel bed. Ordered it for the upcoming trip to Africa since conventional playards are heavy (yes, even the lightest one), bulky and awkward. And we will definitely have enough baggage.

In a word, this thing is AWESOME. It can be used from birth to age 6, it weighs almost NOTHING, folds completely compact, is super comfy (comes with inflatable mattress, pump & sleeping bag) and completely encloses like a mini-tent to keep bugs out. Ingenious.

What's more, at $75, it's cheaper than most playards.


Yes, it is actually lightweight enough for a kid to carry.

I'm intrigued!
I've seen this online...

I wonder if my munchkin would chill in it like yours!

For now I have it parked on the living room floor so that she will get used to it.

When we travel, the first nap or night is always hard, but after that, she totally chills and understands that this is her 'new' bed.
