We are a MAM family (read more here)! Both of my girls used MAM pacifiers and bottles. Whenever I’m looking for shower gifts for new moms, I always include MAM products. It’s no surprise to learn that the adorable Oral Care Rabbit, the Start Pacifiers, and the Anti-colic Bottles won 2014 National Parenting Publications Awards (NAPPA).
Each year, NAPPA’s independent panel of expert judges and parents stringently test and evaluate hundreds of submissions and choose only the best of the best. Products are judged on innovation, safety, quality, educational value and the degree to which they assist busy parents and families. This year, 50 products were selected to receive the coveted Gold Award, while 129 others were designated as Silver or Honors winners. The Oral Care Rabbit and Start Pacifiers are Gold winners in the Gadgets ‘n’ Gear category and MAM’s Anti-Colic Bottle has been named a Silver winner in the same category. Below is more information on the products.
MAM Oral Care Rabbit:
Designed to maintain baby’s oral hygiene before teeth arrive, the MAM Oral Care Rabbit gently removes plaque and bacteria from baby’s mouth. Mom’s fingers tuck into the rabbit’s super soft “ears” like a glove, allowing her to gently massage and clean baby’s gums. Regular use of the MAM Oral Care Rabbit also helps prepare baby for a regular tooth brushing routine at an early age. Suggested retail price: $5.99
MAM Start Pacifiers:
MAM Start Pacifiers with their extra small and lightweight design are a perfect choice for newborn babies up to age two months. Developed in cooperation with the International Children Medical Research Society, MAM Start Pacifiers are recommended most by dentists and Orthodontists. The pacifiers feature MAM’s Ultra Soft Silicone Nipple which stays comfortably in baby’s mouth due to its anti-slip texture and the symmetrical nipple is ideal too for baby’s jaw development. The textured surface and multiple small openings on the pacifier shield Allow air to circulate and for baby’s skin to breathe. In addition to MAM’s patented anti-slip Silk Teat™ Silicone nipple, MAM Start Pacifiers also are available in a Natural Latex nipple option. Like all MAM products, MAM Start pacifiers are BPA-free, PVC-free, lead-free and CPSIA-Compliant. Recommended retail $7.49 for a pack of two.
MAM Anti-Colic Bottles:
Ideal for newborns, the innovative MAM Anti-Colic Bottle helps reduce the stress associated with newborn feedings. Patented ventilation holes in the bottle’s base regulate the pressure balance of baby’s milk, allowing it to flow evenly without bubbles or air pockets for reduced gas and colic symptoms.
The bottle’s savvy design makes it a pleasure to use; wide openings at both ends allow for effortless filling and cleaning, and an innovative self-sterilizing feature lets busy parents sterilize an empty bottle in the microwave with a few simple steps. Available in a 5 ounce or 9 ounce size; recommended for newborns and up. Suggested retail price: $6.99 each and $13.49 for two.
