On Friday Caspian and I attended The Baby Show at Kensington Olympia in SW London. This annual fair, that also visits Excel in the late Winter and Birmingham in the spring, is full of everything you need as a new parent. Like previous years it was busy. Pregnant women with their partners in tow and new parents with scrumptious newborns.

We had fun exploring new gadgets and brands and met up with the lovely people from Baby Jogger whom we’re collaborating with on a new exciting campaign, which I look forward to sharing with you soon.

PARTYING WITH STOKKE

We were also invited to a very special party hosted by Stokke to celebrate the famous Trip Trap high chair. It’s sold in more than 10.000.000 copies across the world since launching in 1972. To celebrate this milestone they have launched two limited addition designs with only 2000 available of each. The stunning black and rose gold and an equally sleek natural wood and silver. They come signed and with a serial number. Caspian’s already given them his seal of approval!

Stokke exhibited at the show along with many other fabulous brands, so whether you are after high chairs, nursery furniture, baby clothes or buggies this show is the place to test it all out before buying.

The Baby Show was buzzing, but is naturally geared more towards pregnant women and new parents. So I was excited to learn that there will be a new type of Baby to Toddler event in November catering to babies and toddlers aged 0 to 4. This is taking place the weekend of the 19th and 20th at Excel here in London and you can book tickets here.

Have you been to any of these baby shows around the country? What is your must-have recommendation for new parents?

NB! Please note we were provided with tickets for the show.
