Baby Carriers Through Cultures
Baby slings have been in vogue for ages all over the world. This is a piece of cloth that is used to tie the baby to the body of the one who takes care of the baby. The ring sling is a modification with a cloth sewn to two rings, usually made of aluminum. The head and the arm of the wearer are put through the loop of the cloth. A pocket is formed between the rings where the child is seated. Ring slings can be used to carry an infants as well as toddlers. The pouch slings are similar but without the rings. It is simply a cloth forming a pouch which is sewn into shape. The size of the pouch is adjusted with the use of clips, rings, snaps, buckles, and zippers. The seat for the child is created when the pouch is slipped over the head and shoulder.
Wraps or wraparounds or wraparound slings are longer fabric that are wrapped around the baby and the wearer and tied. The baby or the toddler is carried on the hip, back or front of the wearer. The wrap is of two types namely woven and stretchy. The stretchy wrap is made of knits as interlock or jersey. It is easy to carry the baby and is therefore popular. The woven wrap is made of woven natural fabric and comes in variety of materials, patterns and colors. Cotton is the most preferred though wool, silk, linen and hemp are also used. A piece of cloth also can be made into sling wrapping around the baby carer and the baby. There is the Chinese Mei Tai which is almost square piece of cloth with parallel unpadded straps at the corner. There is similarly the Korean podaegi which is a large rectangular fabric with a very long strap. There are variants of this such as Chinese bei beis, Hmong carriers, the Japanese onbuhimo, the parka or amauti of the Inuits and in almost all cultures across the world.
Another popular baby carrier is the stroller which is like seat on wheels. They come in a variety of models and brands. There are Chicco Trevi Stroller Graco Strollers, Inglesina Strollers, Kolcraft Strollers, Maclaren Strollers, Rock Star baby strollers, Schwinn Strollers and Stokke Strollers.
Baby care also includes baby carriages such as the stroller or the simple baby slings. It keeps the baby at your reach, safe and secure whether one is traveling or at work.
