TRAGIC: Baby Found Dead In Strawberry Field
Brooke Mueller Avoids Jail Time
Baby cone of silence
Filed under: Health & Safety: Babies, Playground Bureau, Media
Okay, I know this is really odd-looking, but
the concept? Brilliant.From our sister weblog, Gadling, Erik Olsen introduces us to the Infant Cone of Silence -- the latest in airplane gadgetry that'll help keep the peace on those long airline flights. Through the use of a special sound-stopping polymer, this cone is placed over the heads of babies and toddlers during flight, and can reduce the sound of the baby's cries by up the 98%. The design also ensures that the baby receives ample air, so there's no fear of suffocation.
As a parent who gets seriously paranoid about how my child is affecting other passengers, I love this. And even though it looks sort of funny, if it'll help reduce the dirty stares from other passengers, in my book, it's worth it.
(P.S. -- Happy April Fool's Day!)

Thank you for the holiday appropriate topic!
