Tidy Tiger Soft Silicone Food and Crumb Catcher Baby Bib Review

Knowing from experience (4 kids) I would need to find a bib that a toddler was unable to remove (Velcro, snaps, tying) would prove a little difficult so when I found the Tidy Tiger Soft Silicone Food and Crumb Catcher Baby Bib by Coin & Sapphire I just had to give it a try. I liked the concept of a bib that could be reused without needing to be washed in a washing machine after one use and is virtually indestructible. The Tidy Tiger bib is made from 100% food grade silicone and is latex, phthalate, BPA, and lead Free so you can be comfortable knowing your child is safe. There is a leak proof pocket (tigers mouth) to catch potential messes and an adjustable neck fastener with a hook and loop style.

I personally tried this bib out on my 1 yr old and 2 yr old to see how it worked out and my results were fairly the same. Both children loved the bib and wanted to put it on (until it was actually fastened...kids) but once it took me well over a minute to get it fastened through the hook and loop I was frustrated and so was the child. See, there is this tiny ball at the end of the hook that must go through the donut shaped hole and it doesn't exactly go in willingly. After some prying and pushing at different angles the ball will eventually go through but its work.....much more work than a button bib and by that time the child is usually fighting to get away. Removing the bib is easier but without instructions I can't be sure I actually latched the bib the right way. Does it go through 1 hole and sit or does it go through that first hole then bend around to hook back into the hole on the same silicone strand? I also found that the bib pocket only stays open to catch food when the child is somewhat leaning forward. I do like that the bib is completely flexible at any angle and I can roll it up to store in the diaper bag. Rinses clean in the sink or by a wet cloth making clean up easy.

Overall, this is a nice high quality silicone bib that is made to last. And the cute tiger face is loved by both of my children. With a price of $5.95 this bib is a good choice.

I was offered this product at a discounted rate in exchange for my honest opinion.
