A material/flexible harness that has three (3) teething toys built in and is secured to a child's body over clothing by straps with hooks and loop fasteners.

A fluid delivery device includes a nipple having a hollow body and a tip having a fluid exit opening. The body is symmetrical around an axis passing through the tip opening. The nipple includes a tab extending from the body radially outwardly from the axis. A syringe fits into the nipple to provide a source of medication or other fluids to be administered orally.

The present invention comprises a new material used to form semi-rigid shapes. The new material comprises a specific blend of materials and a method of making the blend pertaining to temperatures and conditions. Items made of or comprising the new material in accordance with the invention will exhibit both suitable rigidity and durability along with long-lasting flavor to be used in the construction of a number of items, including teething devices, drinking cups, drinking straws and other utensils. The material itself and the inventive devices may be used to flavor other foods. For example, a teething device made from the flavor infused material encourages the child to use the device for longer periods, thereby providing better relief than prior art teethers. Flavored straws may be employed to add, or provided to blend, the flavor of the straw with the flavor of the liquid pulled through the straw. The flavor character is expected to last a minimum of 6 months and typically at least to 2 years or more.

A method for occupying a toddler may include providing a flexible mat; affixing the flexible mat to a vertical surface; providing an elongated tether; affixing the elongated tether to at least one of the vertical surface and the flexible mat; coupling an object to the elongated tether. In some embodiments, the elongated tether has an anchor end and a retention end. The retention end may have one or more retention apertures, each characterized by a retention-aperture diameter, and a retention terminus characterized by a retention diameter being greater than the retention-aperture diameter. Coupling an object to the elongated tether may include disposing the retention end around or through the object and disposing the retention terminus through one of the one or more retention apertures to form a compression fit.

The invention is concerned with a musical teether for infant. It has a body member including one or more regions or projections on which an infant can bite in use for soothing purpose and a musical unit. The body member is configured to receive or otherwise accommodate the musical unit which is removably engageable with the body member. The teether further has means for transmitting vibrational musical signal from the musical unit to the body member for onward transmission to teeth of the infant, then to jaw bones and skull of the infant, and then to ear bones of the infant, such that the infant can, while biting on the teeth, receive vibrational musical signal arisen from direct vibration on the ear bones of the infant.

This present invention relates to a magnetic pacifier that is capable of being used with a face mask or other facial covering, and that does not negatively impact the effectiveness of the facial covering. The magnetic pacifier is of two part construction, wherein a first flange is positioned on one side of the facial covering, and a second flange is positioned on the opposite side of the facial covering but magnetically attached to the first flange. The magnetic pacifier further comprises a discreet but effective RFID tag, GPS chip or other location beacon that will allow the parent, guardian, caregiver or law enforcement to located a missing child via the pacifier.

An oral examination device including a lip shield, a nipple, and a camera. The lip shield defines a front side and back side. The nipple extends from the front side of lip shield. The nipple defines an interior cavity with an opening to the interior cavity provided from the rear of the lip shield. The camera is positioned in the interior cavity of the nipple.

Pacifier devices with internal reservoirs and metering units are described. The metering units provide single dosages of an internal supplement material during a fixed period of time. For example, embodiments of pacifier devices can be utilized to provide supplemental nutrition paste or gel to undernourished infants with metered dosages as appropriate to the supplement.

A device for rinsing a child's mouth and teeth comprising a pliable vessel having a front end, a back end, and side walls defining a hollow interior space inside the vessel. The side walls contain a first depression near the front end and a second depression opposite the first notch. The first depression contains at least one front opening in fluid communication with the interior space, angled to face the front surface of the top teeth, and at least one back opening positioned closer to the front end from the front opening, in fluid communication with the interior space, angled to face the back surface of the top teeth. A removable cap to removably close the vessel mounted at the back end. When the vessel is filled with water and the front end is inserted into a child's mouth so that the first depression receives the portion of the top teeth and the child's second depression receives the portion of the child's bottom teeth, manually squeezing the vessel pushes water through the front opening and the back opening to rinse the portion of the top teeth and the mouth without directly rinsing the bottom teeth.

A pacifier for rinsing an infant's or child's mouth and teeth having an aperture extending through its front lip shield and connecting to a port near the front of the pacifier. The port preferably connects the aperture to enclosed channels or tubes preferably contained entirely within the body walls of the pacifier. The enclosed channels or tubes allow fluid communication with beveled openings located on the top side of the pacifier. The beveled openings are preferably forwardly angled to point towards the lip shield and the interior surface of the infant's or child's upper teeth when the pacifier is placed in the infant's or child's mouth so that when water is pushed through the aperture, the water is pushed through the port, the enclosed channels, and out of the beveled openings, and rinses the mouth and teeth.
