A Technological Way of Feeding your Baby


Feeding a baby is an enjoyable activity, right?

Well, maybe not always, especially if some spoonfuls of food are not reaching their final destination: Your baby’s mouth. Instead, they end up on the floor or your baby’s clothes.

The ThinkGeek JetBib could be a really useful gadget, especially if you want to feed your little baby without having pieces of food everywhere. It includes a bib with a printed landing strip and a plane-shaped spoon (an airliner).

Both the plane-shaped spoon and the bib (that is to say, the landing strip) come with luminous LEDs that serve two purposes: On one hand, flashing red lights on the plane’s wings will spark your baby’s curiosity; on the other hand, as the gaping baby is making some delicate moves, the motion-activated LED lights in bib will illuminate to guide the plane toward a safe landing without unexpected deviations of the flight. Of course, the final destination is your baby’s mouth.

JetBib is recommended for children age 12 months and older. Maybe is not a very sophisticated gadget, but it can catch your baby’s attention and, at the same time, your child will have a lot of fun with this. Of course, it will also save your time and effort if you don’t have to clean the whole surrounding area after feeding your child.

As mentioned before, the Leds on the bib are motion activated and they are placed on the sides of the landing strip. The red lights on the plane can be controlled by using an on/off button and each set comes with three removable spoons that can be cleaned up in a very easy way.

This completely shows that technologies are for all sort of ages, and even babies could get a handful of them.
