I had a Maya with Leila & LOVED LOVED LOVED it ... the afternoon I got the Safe Seat, I stopped by a local shop & bought a sling styled after the Maya (but with a more comfortable shoulder area) made by a local mom
I do wish it were more colorful -- I imgaine the black will be hot in the summer
Also, with Leila I had a mesh water sling because she was like a bar of soap during bath time & the water sling was the only safe way for me to get her clean, LOL
Chess: *I* am still only learning
Never touched a chess piece/board in my life till a couple months ago -- saw the Harry Potter chess set on clearance & grabbed it up ... my guy is big into chess so we play with him on one side, me & Leila on the other -- Leila chooses which piece & I choose where to put it, LOL ... so far she understands the names of the pieces, how to set up the board & which pieces can move which ways *YAY* She was "teaching" her big sis, which soon enough turned into something not at all like human chess, a lot like Wizard Chess (only less organized) *WINK*
I really like the Safe Seat -- very easy to use ... harness similar to our Recaro & the lock off is neat, kinda strange, but neat -- I've gotten it installed in all our vehicles already very well! (Fords, Toyotas, Chevies, Dodges, BMWs....)
