Current Challenge - Wrapped in Love and Luck 2.0!

It's the second running of our very first challenge!

Past Challenge - New Year, New Carries

Join in January to try a bunch of new carries with a woven wrap! We haven't featured any of these in a challenge yet, and many were coined in 2016. Let's try them all together in the Babywearing Challenge group on Facebook or tag you photos on Instagram with #newyearnewcarries and #babywearingchallenge.

Past Challenge - "Best Seat" for IBW 2016!

The theme of 2016's International Babywearing Week is "Best Seat in the House" so this week-long challenge is all about great seats!

Wrapping School

Wrapping School is a full week focused on getting back to basics. We'll start with 101: How to Get Started with Woven Wraps, a LIVE video on Facebook that will outline the 3 steps to getting started with woven wraps. From there our skills will build with a live video each day and a whole bunch of supporting resources shared along the way. Register for "class" today!

Postpartum Week

This week we're focusing on the intersection of babywearing and all the other stuff that happens when a new person is welcomed into the family. "Postpartum" is defined for us this week as any period of time following the welcoming of a new family member, no matter how you measure that period of time (for example, my son is almost a year old and I still consider myself in some extent of postpartum), whether or not you were a gestational caregiver (partners and adoptive parents have postpartum considerations too!) and whether the new family member is an infant or older.
