When I found out I was pregnant with my first child, I immediately started my search for minimalist, yet functional, baby products that wouldn’t be a total eyesore. No matter how much research I did to find the perfect pieces, everything seemed to be bulky, ugly, and hard to clean. It wasn’t until a couple years down the road that I found Lalo -- and I’m so glad I did.
Lalo is pretty and practical. The brand was founded by two dads who set out to reimagine shopping for baby and toddler essentials by creating thoughtfully-designed and high-quality pieces that are beautiful, well-priced, and rigorously tested. They understand the overwhelm that comes with parenting. Lalo has redefined the world of baby products, making it easier for both novice and veteran parents to find the products they actually need (and want).
As a child starts to eat more independently, it seems cleanest (and safest) to start using a high chair for meal time. Our family needed a high chair that could pull up comfortably to our dining table, one that comes with a removable tray for easy cleaning + flexibility, and that somewhat complemented our kitchen. Enter: The Chair. With easy-to-clean surfaces and an intelligent design that leaves out unnecessary nooks and crannies, The Chair made meal time and clean-up a breeze. After a couple good wipes, it's good to go in about 60 seconds.
When it came to a play table for our house, we had just two requirements: easy cleanup, and easy on the eyes. From arts and crafts, to virtual learning days, to snack time, our play table was bound to be the catch-all piece for our daughter. So, we needed something versatile that would last for years to come. Meet: The Play Kit. This Kit comes with a Play Table and two Play Chairs. And just like The Chair, it is so easy to clean up and so beautiful. A win-win for our house!
Before having kids, I had never given much thought to children's tableware needs. From practicality, to safety, to aesthetics -- there really is a lot to consider. We needed items that were easy to clean, functional, and that meshed with our design taste. Introducing: The First Bites Full Kit. Complete with a suction plate (read: your child will not be throwing this plate to the floor every few minutes), a suction bowl, two spoons, two bibs, and a sippy cup, you’ll have everything you need to make meal time feel serene.
Available now (but probably not for long), Lalo's limited-edition Sage green colorway is my new obsession. While it adds some lively color and a splash of delight to my kitchen and playroom, it's still a cool neutral that complements the understated, modern tones in my home. Who said having a baby couldn't be totally chic?
Yes, Lalo has created beautiful and functional pieces, but they’ve also thought through so many more details beyond form and function. Any silicone they use in their products is non-toxic and FDA-approved. Plus, the silicone is designed to resist stains if rinsed after use. Lastly -- and my favorite detail -- The Chair has convertible leg replacements. So once your little one phases out of the high chair, you can replace it with shorter Play Legs and relocate your chair to the playroom. Functionality (and longevity) at its finest.
