The Bumbo Floor Seat is ideal for babies between 3 and 12 months old. You can start using the seat as soon as your baby can hold their head up independently. The Bumbo Floor Seat helps your baby maintain an upright position before they can sit up on their own. The deep seat with elevated leg openings allows your baby's back to slide into the center of the rounded backrest, gently bringing them into an upright position. During the developmental phase, the Bumbo Floor Seat provides valuable support as babies curiously observe their surroundings and prefer to sit upright rather than lie down. The seat is comfortably designed and made from high-quality, low-density foam, ensuring your baby sits comfortably. Additionally, the seat is lightweight and easy to carry from one room to another, allowing you to keep an eye on your baby while they maintain their seated position on the floor. The Bumbo Floor Seat is equipped with a 3-point safety harness that keeps the baby in an upright position. Babies who like to wiggle or squirm cannot fall out, yet their freedom of movement is not completely restricted by the harness. Your baby needs to learn to sit upright, so the Bumbo Floor Seat should not be used for extended periods. For cleaning the seat, note that the surface has an open structure that can absorb too much water. Cleaning is very simple; use only a damp cloth and a mild detergent. Never submerge the Bumbo Floor Seat in water.
