File Under Bad Idea

File Under Bad Idea

These days we are often find ourselves bemused by the products that are made for infants and toddlers, so when we stumbled upon these ridiculous baby products, we somehow weren't surprised by some of them.

The first, the Zaky infant pillow in theory, seems like a fantastic product, we won't lie. Everyone knows infants love to sleep near their parents, and a synthetic pair of hands that are large enough to feel like dad's (after a severe bee-sting, anyway) may work...right? And what the heck is up with the baby keeper? Why would you hang a child from the ceiling when they could, I don't know, sit in a highchair?

Most of these products just seem like failed attempts at being cute...our personal favorite is the baby mop, which defiantly piqued our interest. If we're going to have to spend hours everyday chasing our little ones around as they learn to crawl, we might as well get a shiny hardwood floor out of it!

What do you think of these products? Disturbing or plain hilarious? And let's take a poll—which one of these products are you MOST likely to buy?
