A: Babywearing in everyday life
Show us your shots of babywearing while doing dishes, raking leaves, going grocery shopping etc... Show us how babywearing makes your life easier!
B: Creative Babywearing
Show us your "unique" carriers or carries. The ones that are off the beaten path so to speak. Whether intentional or intended to be actual carries that morphed into oops, we want to see them!
C: Sleepy Babywearing
Show us pictures of babywearing while your little one is off in sleepyland. Show us those sweet little people catching some zzzzzzs
D: Next Generation Babywearing
Show us pictures of your little ones wearing their favourite doll or bear or even younger sibling in their very own baby carrier. Whether it be a commercial baby carrier made just for little ones, a full size carrier shared from the family stash or a scarf or towel fashioned to carry... anything that keeps those little arms free to be busy doing other things qualifies ;-)
All submissions can be emailed to
contactbabic@gmail.com or else given in person to me at a BABiC meeting (or the picnic tomorrow!).
Have fun everyone! I can't wait to see the submissions :)
