exersaucers are not really safe for babys. rather put them down on the floor and let them explore.

We have https://a.co/d/e4zV3dG which has a smaller footprint than most and comes apart easily

Why are exersaucers not safe?

Your kid shouldn't be parked in any baby holder for too long. We use it for 10 min at a time up to half hour a day total. But it's a key tool in getting dinner made or older kids bathed

Correct. I need it for the first half hour after a feeding. If he’s on his stomach then he doesn’t stop spitting
Its also good for during dinner time or the seuda when he wants to see what’s going on

For dinner we put him in the highchair with some cereal or other finger food to play with

Not after every single feeding obviously 🙄
Once or twice a day. And a half hour didnt physically mean 30 min. Was more like an expression
Hes 5 months. I dont give him finger food yet.

I like when babies play with toys not food. It teaches wrong eating habits.
Snack is for snack time and Toys is for play time

That makes more sense. Sounds like it makes sense for you

Not to nitpick but half hour actually literally means 30 minutes, so if you say that that’s what people will assume you mean

Sitting in the highchair with a tray full of Cheerios or peas that they're trying to get into their mouth while everyone around them is eating is a great way to teach them about how food works, but do what works for you
