A long time ago, a reader emailed me asking about bean bag chairs and what they are filled with. At the time I didn’t have a good answer for her. It seemed that most were filled with either polystyrene or flame retardant treated foam bits** See NOTE below **. And that was just the inside. [...]

I baby proofed my home with my first son and never had too much trouble with him getting into dangerous places.
