Parents often have to sacrifice much of their pre-child routines when a new baby comes along, so the 'KettleBaby' has been designed to help ensure that physical fitness isn't one of those things.
Developed by Nat Fraser, the workout device is essentially a rugged harness for small children that can be worn by young ones and lifted by parents to perform various exercises. This comes as a dual-purpose solution for parents that will enable them to work out, while also spending time with their child to eliminate the feeling that it needs to be one or the other.
The 'KettleBaby' is reported to support over 100 pounds, but is intended for use with children who are between five months old and 50 pounds.
