Today in History
*The rubber band was invented. (1845)
*(Saint Patrick’s Day
In honor of the Patron Saint of Ireland, who brought Christianity to the Emerald Isles, as Ireland is known. It is truly a day of celebrating Irish history, ancestry, traditions and customs. Are you Irish perchance!?! Well, the saying goes everyone is a little Irish on Saint Patrick’s Day. Roots of Tradition: Saint Patrick’s day is held in honor of Saint Patrick, the missionary who brought Christianity to the Irish people in the 400’s AD. Erin Go Braugh is perhaps the most common Irish term you will hear. It means “Ireland Forever” . Did You Know? Over 34 million Americans are of Irish descent. That’s almost nine times the population of Ireland!

The Baby Dipper Bowl
Invented and patented by a mom of two sets of twins, the triangular Baby Dipper bowl makes mealtime a fun and clean experience for all! Since only one hand is needed for feeding, parents can use their free hand to clean or entertain baby, or to keep baby’s hands out of the bowl. Toddlers can see through the transparent sides of the bowl and concentrate on getting the food onto their spoons and into their mouths. All users of the Baby Dipper feeding set avoid the frustrations of chasing the food around the bowl and the bowl around the table. The Baby Dipper bowl comes with a matching spoon and fork and all three are lead-free, phthalate-free, and BPA-free.
