Tip # 7: The Ultimate Changing Table

UBI Changing Table

Here’s another great product that will help reduce the amount of painful work involved in raising your baby, so you can spend more time on more important things (like surfing the internet for great websites like Lazy Parenting 101, that will help reduce the amount of painful work involved in raising your baby).

The UBI changing table is a great little product that cuts down on the amount of effort of changing your baby’s never ending poopy diapers by way of an integrated diaper dispenser! Simply fold down the rear flap of the diaper, place said baby on the table, strap the diaper on, and presto! - remove said baby from the table and your next diaper is ready to go. At $120 US this is not the cheapest product out there, but its a pretty cool time saver if you can afford it.

Johnson & Johnson Introduces “Nothing But Tears” Shampoo

Nothing But Tears Shampoo

The Onion News Network is reporting on a new shampoo being introduced by Johnson & Johnson, that is basically designed to toughen your wimpy kid up.

A radical departure for the health goods manufacturer, the new shampoo features an all-alcohol-based formula, has never once been approved by leading dermatologists, and is as gentle on a baby’s skin as “having to grow up and fend for your goddamn self.”

“We at Johnson & Johnson have been making bath time a safe and soothing experience for far too long,” company CEO William C. Weldon said. “Years of pampering have left our newborns helpless, feeble, and ill-equipped for the arduous road ahead.”

“It’s time our children got the wake-up call that’s been coming to them,” Weldon continued. “It’s time they cried their precious little eyes out.”…

“You’ll notice a difference after just one use,” said Michelle Baker, head of new product development. “Whether it’s your newborn’s more hardened appearance, the way he now approaches people with guarded skepticism, or just that look on his face that says, ‘Oh wait, maybe life isn’t all hugs and kisses and rainbows. Maybe I need to get my fucking act together.’”

Keep-It-Up Bottle PropA little while ago, we brought you the great tip of “Bottle Propping”. What we didn’t know at the time was that a wonderful product called the Keep-It-Up Bottle Prop existed! For only $8.99 this product:

* Keeps bottle from tipping and leaking
* Is ideal for hands-free “snuggle me close” feeding time
* Is expandable opening fits most bottles
* Has cushy grip for little hands
* Is a must for multiples

This takes Bottle Propping to a whole new level and lazy parenting to brand new heights!. As one commenter on the product’s website mentions, it works great in the car too. Lazy parenting has never been lazier.

Tip #1: GoDogGo Ball Launcher

Karl Woll| August 1, 2008 5:19 pm

Our first tip to offer you is a doozy. If your child is running around, screaming such nonsense as “Hey daddy, look at this picture I drew for you”, and all you’re trying to do is catch the 4th quarter of a close game, then look no further than to GoDogGo Automatic Fetch Machine. This great product will automatically launch a basket of tennis balls at your kid at intervals of 7 - 15 seconds. Best of all it comes with a remote control. Turn this baby on and watch the magic as your kid will be captivated, tirelessly running around after the balls!

Some people will point out that this is a product designed for dogs, not small children. We say phewy! It works great, and we think the marketing people at GoDogGo are missing an entirely new demographic here. As an example, they have a great quote on their website where they could easily replace the word ‘dog’ with ‘child’ and they could sell thousands of more units:

Go[Child]Go™ is the first, and still the only, Automatic Fetch Machine for [children]. Yes, now [little Jimmy] can play fetch by himself. Really! The Go[Child]Go tennis ball launcher was designed to provide hours of healthy exercise and enjoyment for your [child]. Think of Go[Child]Go as your [child]’s own personal playmate that’s ready to play whenever he is!

Most [children] love to play fetch. LOVE it! Long after they’ve tired their [parent] companions out, most [children] are still ready to play–play more fetch! Go[Child]Go is ready to play with your [child] for as long as he wants. After all, unlike your big ball of energy pooch, we [parents] do get tired and bored after playing fetch over and over and over and over. Lucky for your [child], Go[Child]Go never tires out.

Go[Child]Go was designed to let you choose how much or how little interaction you have with your [child] while he’s playing with his new favorite [child] toy. From the remote control, you can set Go[Child]Go to any one of three modes.

Honestly, I’ve used this one before and my son loves it! Aim it so it shoots in your backyard or down the longest hallway in your house and you’re set. Your child will run back and forward collecting tennis balls and putting them back into the launcher basket while you are free to enjoy your own time. This also works great to help tire that little rug rat out, inducing early bedtime. There is a slight cost to this method of lazy parenting for the machine, batteries and tennis balls, but you won’t be disappointed with your investment.

As of yet, no one has posted a video of their children using this wonderful device on YouTube, but here’s a video of a dog to illustrate exactly how it works:
