Best Travel Product (For Children) | Junior Design Awards 2019
Travelling with children can be easy, especially if you take these award winning travel essentials on board...
WINNER: GOLD BEST TRAVEL PRODUCT FOR CHILDREN
WHO: Micralite Sleep & Go Travel Cot
WHAT: A travel cot designed to help baby sleep just as soundly, home or away. The bassinet attachment allows your newborn to sleep close by and there’s a deeply padded mattress so you don’t have to compromise on comfort. The travel cot can also be converted into a play pen for use in the daytime too! When you need to transport it, it packs down in seconds into the stylish and comfortable carry bag.
WHY: Our judges loved the sleek minimal design and simple black colour of this stylish travel cot that easily transforms from newborn crib to infant cot bed to play pen, covering all your travel needs as your family grows. The quick fold action was much admired as was the smart compact travel bag with handles. The biggest attraction was the raised crib that means no straining your back to soothe little ones to sleep when they really are little. Our judges wrote in their notes:
Great that this can be used from birth up to toddler stage, and that it is easy to put up and down - often a challenge with some travel cots.
A lifesaver (and cost saver) when the children were young!
The newborn layer is great and the mattress is soft…
Love the from birth solution
