Play with your food, not with your bib
Numerous styles and designs of baby bibs exist and they all provide an extra layer to protect both baby and babys clothes. As the puree inevitably drips down the world's cutest chin, a good bib will be there to catch it. The convenience of a bib surpasses the use of a towel or napkin. Because it is worn, it can do its job without being noticed, and a comfortable bib will be unobtrusive enough for even the fussiest baby to keep on.
You are what you wear
The material of your babys bib matters for many reasons. Imagine it from the little one's perspective.
A plastic bib can be useful for very messy meals, especially when the food is more liquid than solid, but the comfort of plastic is minimal at best.
The lacy elegance of an heirloom bib is apropos for a special occasion, but as soon as the fancy clothes go, so should the fancy bib.
It is the towel bib that is best for everyday because nothing is as functional and easy as the plush comfort of terry cloth cotton.
Towels are tops
A towel bib is soft and absorbent. Whether it is a honey comb or waffle weave, a luxurious Jacquard or velour, or a simple, traditional terry, the towel bib is as cozy for baby to wear as it is for you to use. It is always a short distance from bib to chin when a quick wipe will keep the colorful plum puree from becoming finger-paint, and a large enough bib will catch the comical ejection of newly introduced green peas. Only towel bibs can wipe up and absorb the way a towel or wash cloth can.
More muss, less fuss
Babies are messy. Mealtime with baby is a fun game with two sets of rules. You want to get the food into the baby and baby wants to get the food everywhere else. And mealtime isn't the only time you need a bib. How often have you had to change outfits because those winning smiles and movie star pouts come with an inevitable bit of drool` A towel bib can help. With an absorbent bib, drool is no problem at all. And with fewer costume changes, you'll be doing less laundry behind the scenes.
A must-have
A good bib is a baby essential, and while certain bibs have special purposes, the towel bib is your best choice for everyday. It doesn’t mess around.
