Fisher-Price wants your help






Fisher-Price is looking for new ways to dispose of dirty diapers. They don't want your average disposal system that you see on the market today. They are looking for the next-generation. And that is where you come in.

Product ideas may include disposal systems for both reusable and disposable diapers and should fit in the targeted retail price point of $30-$60.

What is the Foonf?






The picture above comes from Safety Pop.

And now onto the Foonf. Sorry there are no pictures, but Clek is keeping this thing top secret. Hopefully the upcoming ABC Kids Expo in two months will provide us with some. But I have come across some info on the new car seat. Foonf is going to be Clek's first second stage car seat, for babies 15 lbs and up. It will be similar to the current booster seats, but with a 5-point safety harness and the ability to be used both read and front-facing.

Right now the expected release is in early 2012.

Bébé Confort Kamino






In my search for modern baby walkers, there was one I came across that was promising. The Bébé Confort Kamino walker is rather pretty, but of course not available in the USA.

If you really want it though, Ebaby in the UK will ship it to you for 114 pounds ($184) plus the 74 pound ($119) cost of the walker.

$900 Stroller for Victoria Beckham






Even though she already has an Orbit and a Quinny Buzz, Victoria Beckham has gone out and purchased yet another stroller for her baby girl. Unable to get an ICandy Apple in purple (it's sold out), Victoria asked the company if they could make her a Peach (above) in purple. And they did.

Beckham's stroller was custom colorized in the same purplish color used in her British baby shower.

Why are there no modern baby walkers?






Because there aren't. That's the one piece of gear that's missing from the modern baby world. We've got modern strollers (Orbit, Bugaboo, Phil & Teds, Quinny), modern car seats (Clek, Orbit, Maxi Cosi), modern highchairs (Nest, Oxo Tot, Bloom), modern bouncers (Bloom, Maclaren, BabyBjorn), modern playards(Phil & Ted's, BabyBjorn, Graco's element) and even a modern swing now with the Mamaroo. Bloom, Nursery Works, DucDuc, Monte and a ton of others have the furniture market covered.

Skip Hop, Oxo Tot, Boon and Beaba make modern dishes, spoons and sippy cups. Hoppop,4moms and Boon brought us the modern bath. There are so many modern baby toy companies that I can't possibly name them all, and carriers and diaper bags are also aplenty.

Yet a simple search for a modern baby walker, excersaucer, entertainer or jumper will get you nothing more than this prototype from Wonjune Song (Thanks BuyModernBaby). Why hasn't anyone created a modern entertainer yet? I think there would be a huge marker for it, seeing as no others exist. I guess we will have to keep waiting though, because I haven't even heard of a rumor of one.
