Very Useful Products for your Baby!

VUP Baby sell Very Useful Products and is dedicated to providing a one stop shop of the best non-toxic baby products from around the world which are free from PVC, BPA and Phthalates.  Their range covers everything you need from feeding to bathing to bedtime to being out and about with baby.  They also have a great selection of toys including some wonderful wooden products from top brands.


Nothing compares to the tactile quality of wooden toys.  The smooth finish, the warmth and the solidity of the wood is so superior to the feeling of mass produced plastic toys.  They have a traditional charm and an ageless quality that is so pleasing to both the parent and the child.

We were very excited to be sent a Fireman Rosso Rasante by Selecta for Freddy to play with.  This lovely wooden fire engine is beautifully made with a detachable ladder,  fireman and pull out/wind up hose.  

The fire engine is beautifully made, and chunky for little hands to hold.  It is very robust and solid and is made with great attention to detail.  From the felt peak on the fireman's helmet to his beaded hands to his painted face, the little fireman character is very appealing to tiny tots.  His fire engine has a hose cord that pulls out from the side of the vehicle.  It can be wound back in by turning a handle, encouraging fine motor skills.  The ladder slides into the holders on the back of the fire engine and offers scope for some great fireman related role play.  Your little one will be saving cats from trees and putting out imaginary fires in no time!

Freddy really liked his little fire engine.  He enjoyed putting the fireman in and out of his seat, making him climb the ladder and whizz around the floor in his fire truck making nee-naw sound effects!  The bright colours, quirky, fun design and play value have put this Fire Engine firmly into Freddy's current favourite toys!

The Fireman Rosso Rasante is currently on sale for £19.40 at VUP Baby.  It is suitable for ages 12 months+.
