Bad Product Idea #12: BeDoodlers Sleepy-Time Skin Markers (For Adults)

Posted by on February 26th, 2013, under INSTRUCTIONAL DIAGRAMS

Picture it. The little ones have finally stopped talking and moving and mess-making and… needing. They’re finally sleeping like the rocks you now feel like you’ve been bombarded with. But after the kid-valanche, things can seem startlingly slow. A little boring even. Don’t turn to a screen to chill out and wind down, though. BeDoodle [...]

Bad Product Idea #11: The Boob Hat

Posted by on September 10th, 2012, under INSTRUCTIONAL DIAGRAMS

Babies and toddlers have lots to do, all the time. Even when they have nothing to do, they’ll be busy doing something. But feeding can be suuuuuch an annoyance. Babies shouldn’t be required to put down the blocks every single chow time, wrapping themselves around Mommy’s midsection to suckle, or impersonating a sack of potatoes [...]

[ click the image to enlarge ] Are you tired of how many times you have to ask your child to do or stop doing something, keeping exact count of how many times so they can’t turn around and correct you when you give an inexact guesstimate of how many times you’ve already asked? Are [...]

Babies smell like fairies and edible flowers. Show me the person who figures out how to bottle the magical spell of baby-scent and I’ll show you someone who will soon be rich enough to buy an island, just to store fan mail.

Bad Product Idea #7: Baby Hjölster

Posted by on February 29th, 2012, under INSTRUCTIONAL DIAGRAMS

[ click the image to enlarge ] If this was a real product, it wouldn’t just be for the recently-parented couple with a wagon-wheel coffee table and more pairs of boots than shoes (though it’d be mandatory for those). The Baby Hjölster infant holster carrier would be perfect for anyone who was a little bit [...]

Bad Product Idea #5: Tranquoo Child Anti-Wakefulness System

[ click the image to enlarge ] There is nothing more precious, more beautiful, than the image of your child in a deep, restful and rosey-cheeked slumber. But that preciousness and beauty is multiplied by 10,000 when it follows the utter, sanity-testing misery of your child screaming, flailing and refusing to go to sleep for [...]

Posted by on August 9th, 2011, under INSTRUCTIONAL DIAGRAMS

[ click the image to enlarge ] No one knows what foods their baby will take to, and some babies can be crazy about their appetites and tastes. On one hand, you can’t seem to feed them anything except a few items, and on the other, they’ll cram the strangest things into their faces without [...]

Posted by on July 12th, 2011, under INSTRUCTIONAL DIAGRAMS

  [ click the image to enlarge ] If the inventor of Lil’ Chompers Baby Dentures were a real person and not just the hypothetical creator of a fictional bad product concept we created to entertain you, then at one point he probably became preoccupied with thoughts of how awful it would be to have [...]
