So babies chew on everything--remote controls, cell phones, arms, legs, whatever they find on the floor. But does that make it OK to make a line of jewelry specifically designed for children's chomping habits? It's the idea behind Dr. Bloom's Chewable Jewels.
The design came about when the founder noticed kids like to chew on jewelry and thought, why not make it safe? In keeping with safety regulations, the jewelry is made from FDA-approved food grade silicone and pigments with no lead or phylates. You can get a set of three bracelets (above) for $17.95 or a necklace (below) for $15.95.
For me, however, the idea crosses the line between what's mommy's and what's baby's. Shouldn't kids learn it's not alright to teeth on jewelry, and isn't it normal for mom to wear jewelry that her kids aren't supposed to eat? Thoughts?
