Being a fan of Transformers, I love gadgets that is related or function like one.

Last Thursday, Poppies launched their latest baby stroller, the Bugaboo at Silhouette, The Spring. Unlike normal stroller that I’ve seen before, this is indeed a special stroller of it’s own class. I’ll explain why in the later part of this post.

At a glance, the first thought that crossed my mind was this is a simple stroller. Indeed, it is lightweight, cute and compact, full of useful and ergonomic features. The baby seat can be both facing front and back.

The Bugaboo Bee is like a automobile, it has 4 independent wheel suspension with 4 adjustable ride suspension. Robert, the gentlemen from Bugaboo who demonstrated the strollers even sat on it… yes that’s how strong the stroller is!

It can be converted into a 2-wheel mode too, good for sand or snow terrain. Nice to bring out to the beach.

The detail is just too much to explain here, for better experience, go try it out yourself at Poppies.

Meanwhile, here are some of the photos taken during the event.

The best part I like is the 30 seconds of Bugaboo video from it’s website, see if you can find it or not.

Lewis Hamilton just won the Monaco F1 race yesterday. Have you ever wondered what kind of race Michael Schumacher, Lewis Hamilton, or Felipe Massa had before they are 1 year old? Of course they are not racing each other in their high-tech Formula One car. Well, then what kind of vehicle did they use to race? I guess they must be racing in something like what the babies are racing in today’s event, the BABY WALKER.

The race title is Baby-in-walker Driving Contest 2008. This event is jointly organised by Mummycare and the Crown Square management as one the many activities during Mummycare’s 12th Anniversary celebration. Sponsors are MY DEAR and Mamypoko. I’ll just let the photos do the talking. Please click here for Mummycare’s link on the pre-event press release.

The view of the stage

Closeup of the medals

The champion will win this trophy

Kids are attracted to bright colours.

The walkers parked neatly at the starting line.

The race is very simple, 3 people are involved. First you’ll need the driver (baby), then navigator and a race engineer. The navigator (one of the parents) will have to be in front of the baby, to guide the baby all the way to the finishing line. Rules is he/she can’t touch the baby-walker in any way. The race engineer will hold the baby so he/she won’t take off before the race starts.

The time marshal.

The are 36 parcipants in 6 groups. There are 6 races and the fastest baby in all the 6 races will become the champion.

Ready….. get set……..

GO GO GO!!!!!!

Some kids are lured by handphones

Some by a toy ball

Another handphone fan. I think the best part in “luring” props are 100 Plus and an umbrella.

Don’t be fooled by this sandwich daddy. His kid won the championship.

Almost there

This mommy (right) and the lady next to her is so cute.

Crossing the finish line.

Taste of victory.

While some are busy racing, some babies prefer to chat it out at the starting point. They never finish the race and their parents have to carry them away.

The funny part is, there is always a girl and a boy.

5th runner up (I will post the name later)
