Product Review: Go-Pod from KidCo

All week long, we’ve been discussing ideas for Father’s Day. When I think of dad, images of playing sports and grilling meat comes to mind. With the summer approaching, I am certain there will be lots of weekends spent outdoors. For new dads, a portable baby seat will come in quite handy when travelling with baby.

The Go-Pod is a sturdy, foldable and portable baby seat. It is made from durable canvas, like that of a collapsible umbrella chair. It is more than just a seat, it is an activity centre that can keep baby entertained. The Go-Pod is great for outdoor events such as picnics or barbeques. Baby can have a secure place to sit and play while mom and dad eat. There are even two cup holders for snacks or drinks. The floor pad keeps baby safe from the dirty ground. When all is done, the Go-Pod folds back into its sleek canvas storage bag. You’ll be surprised to learn that it’s not much bigger than that of a yoga bag. It is so convenient to pack with you wherever you go.

The Go-Pod is suitable for indoor use, as well. I have taken the Go-Pod with us when visiting friends and family. The familiarity of the seat brings comfort to baby when being in new surroundings. Passing baby around from person to person can cause over-stimulation for Little One. With a portable seat, baby always has a safe place to go to when he needs to retreat from all the kisses and hugs from uncles, aunties and grandparents.

The Go-Pod is also practical for everyday use. This is a good alternative to a stationary exersaucer. It saves space (can easily pack away when no longer in use) and money (very economical at approximately $60 CND). It has adjustable height settings so it can grow with baby. And you can also change up the toy attachments to keep it fresh and amusing for baby at every stage.

For these reasons, the GoPod is a very useful item for new parents. Pick up a GoPod this Father’s Day. Equipe dad with this portable baby seat so that he can take his little side-kick with him wherever adventure calls.
