"a little letter from kela" worst nightmare
omg so true 😂
Haha
Lol
Too real haha
I dunno, it always feels odd when it arrives but I once got paid 230€ extra and they sent me a letter after I phoned it in, "will not reclaim"
Best news ever ^^
The baby box is one of the things i’m proud in Finland ❤️
I got the last years box and this is so much better!! I’m jealous 😁
I think you should feel very proud of your country! This is wonderful!
Fun fact: with twins you are allowed three boxes (from personal experience you're gonna need it). With triplets even more.
Anyway, the boxes are one of the few things in Finland EVERYONE agrees on. Suggesting taking them away is a political suicide. THAT is how integral the boxes are to Finnish culture.
Oh and it's like a common mom-hobby to criticize them but oh boy are you trouble if you try and take The Box away :D
We agree on taxes too...
I was just about to comment the same thing :D its like 1 box for first baby, 2 for second, 3 for third and so on... So twins get total of 3 boxes, triplets get 6 boxes and quadruplets (is that even the right word ?) get 10 boxes 😅
@@mikaveekoo nope. Im finnish and i dislike the box and high taxes. Dont make assumptions

the goverment in USA: hides aliens and secretly tests weapons
meanwhile in Finland : the goverment gives you a box full of baby stuff when you’re getting a baby
Kaisa Haavisto and the government in China: tries to cover up human rights violation in the Xinjiang region
@@risatakei9697 It's an extreme islam region though
well those clothes inside box will give baby some alien dna so soon we will have many aliens to hide too :(
Im sorry for you if you belive that usa goverment hides aliens
the U.S. government wants it's citizens to make money. The Finnish government wants it's citizens to make babies.
The Finnish baby box idea is charming. even more impressive is that they make it happen and the stuff inside is of decent quality and practical. it's not just a bunch of junk.
The box was first introduced in late 1930s. Twins will give you 3 boxes, triples will give you 6 boxes. What I heard from my grandparents about it: Finland was extremely poor for a long time after WW2, as big payments to Soviet Union were being made as per the international peace agreement, and baby boxes were literally everything many babies got. It was an incredible thing with tangible importance for many moms and newborns, and that's why it has stayed as an important cultural thing, even if many moms nowadays wouldn't really need it. A status symbol for the nation's history in caring about its citizens. That's why so many want it to stay, including people who aren't going to have children. Also, mothers to be through adoption get one too, even if the child is an older one and won't be able to wear any of the clothing, so that's why the option for taking money is good to have.
The baby box colors and patterns change every year, you can spot a certain year in old family photos: "Oh blue bunnies! That was 2008!" :)
Funny thing: that water thermometer has been the same for decades. My mom saved my old one from the '70s and it looks exactly the same 😮🤯
No it hasn't been the same. Atleast from 1994 to 2009 it was different. You can check from ( www.kela.fi/edelliset-aitiyspakkaukset ).

Nojoo
9:22 "aijjaa, mm.." how nice that you use finnish language that spontaniously
I heard "oh yeah, mm"
He said ah yea
Scotland now does baby boxes too.
Scotland is in many ways like Finland. Even the nature is very similar allthough you have more mountains and related species.
@@Saareem And no forests at all because the Englishmen made ships out of all of them... :)
Scotland is Great - after The Finlayson Family moved to Finland ! There are Their Linen everywhere ! At Tampere They are in The City Centre !
borrowed the finn idea.
Maybe a Highlander also " hidden " in Scotland Box ?
Just a tip - you can use the box to store stuff in you might want to keep as memories from when your baby grows up, that might be fun for them to look at as well when they're older!
Mom did that for me and my siblings and she still has them stored up in the attic lol
The value of the content is far over 300€ if you buy all this from a shop. So it's quite wise to choose the box instead of 170€.
Many people take the box when having the first baby, but take the money if they are having more kids...
And its also good to have a choice at least if you are having twins or triplets :D we took 2 boxes and also that 170€ when we got twins and got to choose 3 "boxes". Because what I would do with 3 boxes if I had only 2 babies :D
We took the box for our first and second kid. If we get third baby we will most likely take third box =D
@@Exiletheheretic yeah I would take 3 boxes too if I had 3 kids 😅 but I have only 2 kids and got to choose 3 boxes/money because they are twins
@@StalkkeriParsa And it's probably better for the environment in most cases. If it is good quality then you just need one box although you have more children?
I have a feeling that at the point I have a baby (not planning on one quite yet) I'll rely heavily on this. All the free stuff for sure helps when you don't have a ton of money. 170€ vs the value for all the stuff included makes this box a clear choice. I love that Finland provides this, I'm certain it means a lot to first-time parents!
€ 170 you get if you don't take the package! The correct value of the package is € 300-400 more if you buy the same products yourself.
@@pvahanen that is what I said :D "170€ vs (versus) the value...". The box is certainly worth it :)
@@JUMALATION1 JES! Sorry you write correctly. I read too hastily.
Harja on vauvan hiuksia ja päänahkaa varten. Eka hierotte vauvan päähän vähän vauvaölyä ja harjaatte sen jälkeen niin lapsen päästä irtoaa karsta. (karsta on vissiin kuin kuollutta ihoa+likaa) Ja sitä kehittyy päähän muistaakseni noin 1-2vuatiaaksi asti.
T. 6kk ikäisen lapsen äiti
The brush is for baby hair and scalp. You rub a little baby oil on the baby's head and then brush the baby off and remove the karst. (the karst is viscous like dead skin + dirt) And so it develops babys head until about 1-2 years old. T. Mother of a child 6 months old

Finland is AWESOME!!💜🎉🎉🌷
I’ve been watching a few you tube videos on Finland, and I’ve come to believe that the whole world would be much happier if we had a government like theirs.
Really Really well done.
Great Job Finnish People!!🎉🏆🥇!
Thank you Amy! I think so too, but as a Finn it's a bit hard to admit, since it's not in our culture to be too proud of our culture.. 😊. But I really wish every country in the world would treat their citizens more like Finland, because I want everybody to be happy. Finland is not nearly perfect, but i guess it's about as good as it gets at the moment in the world 😉. Have a good summer!
Things won't be like this for very much longer, perhaps for the next ten years at most. We will become more like Africa or Middle-East in the foreseeable future... just like most European countries. The classic welfare state is on its dying legs.
I hope Finland is able to maintain its way of life.
I think it’s really vital for the world to see that it is possible for all to live a decent respectful healthy as possible life.
Please make it work Fins!!
You guys are awesome🌷💜
Awww thanks!
Obviously, since "The Nordic Model" is (thus far) hands down the best political and economical system.
Some of the clothes might be rough at first but I think after you wash them they’ll become softer
And you should was them because they come straight from china.
broman193 reima’s products are made in finland
@@Peipola73 No they are not all reima's clothes are made in china. Designed in Finland but made in china.
@@broman93 The KELA babybox is always Finnish made products where possible. Apart from few things they are very much Finnish
@@Peipola73 Actually no, not anymore. Reima doesn't even have its own factories in Finland anymore. Most of the products are made in China, and also in Sri Lanka and South Korea.
She has the true finnish mom aura around her 👍
Love the baby box, kudos to the Finnish Government. it would be nice if other countries followed Finland's example of care for their growing population.
Just recently Japan has adopted the Neuvola system. Neuvola means (advice + la). "la" after nouns makes it sound like a place. So basically (advice place). People having babies can get some assistance there. They are also giving a similar baby package now.
@@hav0x963 and they also give free vaccines
People with children also get a monthly support money for each child, which the state continues to pay until your child is 18 years old. Also, the support money gets larger for each subsequent child, so for example if you have 1 child, you get 95€/month from the state. The 2nd gets 105€/month, 3rd gets 135€/month, 4th gets 155€/month and all kids beyond that get 175€/month.
So if you have 5 kids, the state pays you a monthly 665€. And if you're a single parent, the amount per child increases by 50€/month.
Growing population? We havent heard of that in years
@@wardeni9603
The state does not have any money. It is all taken from taxpayers by gunpoint. The child would receive more money without state interference. Money taken from taxpayer is more than the child receives. It requires a lot of money to run tax department.
dad "I can't believe baby's head will be this small" mom "I can't believe baby's head will be that large"
I understood very well her anxiety when thinking about the actual moment when giving birth to their baby!
The box should contain: shorts, hoodie, fishing rod, and a box of maxalaatikko
Haha totally 😂😁
You should name your baby Otso because its a nickname for bear in finland :D
Maybe not first name, but it could be a good second name =)
Tapio is also nickname for bear and its my second name
Tulee vaa mielee Uusi Päivä😂
My boyfriend's childhood friend's name is Otso and since i am foreigner from Latvia,i at first mispronounced the name Otso..I said Otsa instead of Otso..so i said ''forehead'' :D
I thought karhu was bear?
My mom has kept some of the things from the box she got for me. Including the box itself :D a good box, survived 27 years so far and it doesnt even look worn out.
That paternity package was A+++
I was born in the 80's and my mom still has the brown sleeping bag from that baby box. 😁
I have the same brown one from when I was born and now I use it for my dog😂
my mom just found mine from 1990 😁
We have my light blue one :D 1985
I grew out of the Box - when I turned 7 years !
That PlayStation paternity box was amazing, haha :D
i had the gloves clipped to my coat when I was little in the USA. that is a common kid thing.
Disappointed, no baby in box. Would not reccommend 4/10
Lmao
Slappsvans ................
You know how children are born ?
@@holoholopainen1627 Yea, a heron used to bring them on a small bag but in a modern world they come in a box through post office.
And babys born and come late these days cause the post office is too busy mowning lawns.
I had my sleeping bag for years, I liked laying on it outside, reading and eating cream crackers in the sun. I think it turned back to atoms, it was very loved. And I remember trying to cram myself into the box for a in promptu nap and realizing I dont fit anymore (hashtag: my first trauma). The box was so cozy and safe place, I loved it there. Then it became moms memento box, she saved some of my “cuter” baby stuff in it. Since I was born in -76, the box was plain white and everything else was yellow, brown, infection green and orange.. and velour. Fit for babies and Ron Jeremy. Cute as barf.. I still have my first toy tho, blonde ragdoll boy named Ville. I have sucked his hands shapeless, poor dude. We are not parting ways anytime soon, hes still into me :)
I still use my babybox towel. 25 years and counting and not a single scratch :D
I think the mitten clips is Nordic, because I seen them in Norway and Sweden, also pantyhose/ stockings for both girl and boys in winter. Most clothes get softer when you wash them and the ones you didnt like, used them for emergency trousers.
I don't know about the mitten clips, I'm from New England and had them as a child. So did the other kids in my class. I also had the mittens that connected with a string through my coat, but I didn't like them.
@@lady_sir_knight3713 Oh I do remember the string version too, but now it more often a clip instead. I didnt like the string it was either too long or to short.
Had the mitten clips in Wisconsin growing up in the 60s
For a minute there I thought you were talking about stockings as in sexy underwear
Omg! That playstation box was so super adorable! Back in my kids baby times (09&14) i did for my husband dad box, stuff you "need" for survive from baby years 😂💕 congratulations for both 💕
Huh, I didn't know the box gives you that many clothes. It's even better than I thought it was :)
I remember seeing a baby box in the museum in Helsinki and thinking that it was too good to be true! That’s so awesome!!!!!! I’m stoked for baby Cad!!!!!💖💖💖
Another great thing from Finland..exiting times ahead.
The box from Playstation is such a great gift! So thoughtful, very cute😊 I loved the nature theme of this years' baby clothes in the maternity box😍
These baby boxes are the best, i had 2 and everything is useful. 😍😍💕
Cool that both of you were in this video! I was almost going to the next video, but luckily I got to see the Fathernity box as well, so awesome :D
We got that same baby Animal but a Brown one and now after two years that bunny is her favourite thing ever. Precious.
Congratulations on the little one, Dave & Cat!
Good luck with everything! Great videos!
Congratulations!!!! I remember when I received my box(2014), I was very happy because in Philippines we don't have that maternity box.
Such a great video guys! I love it! 😅 And you got lucky with the box and patterns too, they vary a lot :) love ya, see you soon!
Can't wait for the baby unboxing! 😂
We actually have the same thing in Scotland 😊
Lucy Sutherland we've had it for 80 years
If we have had it for 80 years does not mean we are better. Good for you Scotland. 😀
Our Children been delivered in a Box for Years ! Jack in a Box - Theme - since 1917
I love the little book where you upgrade information about the baby's first words, teeth,walking and how happy the baby was :)
My parents didn't really fill it for long and I am kinda sad about it :(
8:22 "hey excuse me can I pull out something" well we all know Dave certainly didn't
You just had to say that? :DDD
Lol
Yaay! Finnally..
Everything you need, Yes, the box has made less children dies in Finland.. by them sleeping it... Lowest in world... Everything is so good and worth getting it free, many places in world has start copy the finnish baby box.. How nice for both to open it, makes it more real.. 😊
Biggest reason is that you only get that box if you go to maternity clinic for checkups. And because mothers come to checkups we have really low death rate what comes to babys.
@@jamisusijarvi646 Lies, you get the box even if you dont do checkups. You can even get the box after kid has born.
@@yksirotta at least originally it was that way. Also official instructions did say so few years ago when my kids did born
"Raskaustodistus, josta selviää, että raskaus on kestänyt 154 päivää ja että olet käynyt terveystarkastuksessa ennen viidettä raskauskuukautta. Saat todistuksen lääkäriltäsi tai neuvolastasi"
www.kela.fi/aitiysavustus-nain-haet
I know, it was tought from start that mothers should go at check ups to get this, when the started give them, Iam 3 generation, my grandma was also getting them whit mum and her sisters and two brothers... But today, if you look st Kela homepage, read it says mums must have been before 4 months writen in to get this, but I dont they say no to mothers who get to know late, they are pregnant. What I meant is, is has been news all around world, that finnish thinking, child should sleep in box, helps then from not die earlly, also effects are smoking, to hot etc... Cheack ups helps to see when baby is stumic, earlly problems etc.. but the tought babies sleeps in a box is so they should not die, this is after care, so baby should be as safe as in mother stumic. Thats reason for the madress in botton, To easy explain...
Congratulations about the baby! I didn't know she is pregnant ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Congrats, it seems thats getting closer to see the baby.
I got the finnish maternity package eventhough i was living in Vietnam as when i was pregnant my second baby from Kela, unfortunatelly i cant get as a package due to delivery cost and need to choose as a cash due to delivery cost.
My Japanese friend told me that she ordered/bought the package for her son from one of Finnish company who sell the similar package and deliver it worldwide, so basically even non Finnish residents we could ordered (i heard that the stuffs depend on the weather we’re staying).
Congratulations 👶🏼💞
Ahh I haven’t caught up with your channel in a while, what lovely news! So happy for you guys! Me and Finnish hubby are expecting our first baby too in January 😊 Can’t wait to get the box!
Jack in The Box ! Great News !
Omgoodness you guys are too adorable
Aww! I got one back in 2003 when my first was born :D I still got those nail scissors!
Dave, you are good... good luck to both.
Proud to be part Finish. :)
you guys are having a baby??? it's been a while since I watched your videos and I'm so happy for you!!
That ps shirt for the little one is so adorable 😄
Wow! I love the clothes! 😍
The "New Player has joined" shirt is so cute!
wow they must have had those towels with the hood for ages. i still remember having mine when i was a kid
Congratulations on receiving your baby box! So Much Cool Stuff!
*Video idea* for you guys: You can choose between the box and the cash (E170). How much of the contents of the box could you buy for E170, I wonder? Half? A quarter? (...prices being notoriously high in Finland).
Anyway, well done and all the best!
Nice one guys! 👌 I have always called it the *Maternity Box*. Even my Dad in Australia thinks the “👶📦 “ is truly a great invention and is so useful. We both agree! ☺️ such cool designs in all of the materials as well. Good luck with the rest of the pregnancy and hope everything goes well!

Nice - No Food Though ? No SURVIVAL KID ?
Aww so cute, I love the bears! I can't believe how fast your pregnancy is going :) x
Tell me about it! 😱
That is sooo cool! I wish they did that here in America!
A paternity box, lol 🙃
Congrats to you and Cat!
You are such a lovely couple and you are having a child! Blessings to your whole family luolaisä
Happy Baby, a little late. The Finish Baby Box is a very, practical and nice idea. I would put a little less white in the box, my baby was very messy, but this is so very nice.
congrats!
This does bring back memories. I kind of remember that they were also quite challenging times, but my god how nice babies are... Luckily - especially with our first one, we had basically no idea, but the job kind of taught its doer, as the saying in Finnish goes :)
My baby slept inside that box in daytimes at living room. It was also a place to quickly put baby down if needed :).
We legit got this same package in July. The little critter was born yesterday. Good to finally know what was in it! Wife's a tiny bit annoyed at me now...
My little sister will like that!!
😍
It does happen in Scotland in the UK, Dave. 😉
Omg you two are just too cute and ever cuter when you have someone to fill in those clothes.
The clothes were so cute. 😍
Greetings from Finland! Yeah!
This video has very big chance of becoming viral.
I'm so proud to be a Finnish person after seeing this video, The best country in the world! It's lovely to see you being that happy
"We are ready now."
Aww pregnant Cat is so cute 🥺😍
I'm just saying that's the optimal chair choice right there at the end of the video
Aah my mum is having her babies (yes babies) in October too❤️
"Too little, too late." I'm wetting myself here. :D
Kat, commendations on that one. Beautifully executed.
I'm ordering the same box in a few months :)
Happy for you ;)
some clothes there might seem coarse on waxy or something, but you are sopposed to wash them before use ;)
The maternity box is awesome but the paternity box was pretty funny as well
Congratz!
You forgot to mention that babies in Finland sleep their naps outside during the winter. :)
I remember sleeping in the "sleeping bag thingy" for years because it was so comfortable, soft and warm, until I grew out of it.
The baby box is obviously great but I love that Sony paternity box 😂
She said duvet cover, not Dave cover! :D
Ni är nog ganska härliga typer faktiskt! 😊
The ps bag 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
Finally!
I slept in a maternity box as a baby :D
And I have my sleeping bag in storage. I called it "onion blanket".
I do not know why...? XD
I wish the U.S. had babies boxes. At my oldest baby shower, some of my mom and in-laws' gifts were from when they had children, which was nice. However, I did have to throw some things out because they were outdated. I had to buy some updated things. My second child was born during the pandemic and did not have any new things. But I love this baby box idea. I wish Finland would send me a baby box for baby number three.
Much luck to you
Greetings from Australia .Hi lve been to Finland twice.l think the box is great and you get so much stuff.l think you can buy the box through a compamy that delivers around the world
