It’s no secret I am against media for children under three-years-old, so when we received a press release today announcing iPhone Pacifier, I couldn’t resist bashing this use of technology. Sure, I can get behind energy saving apps, but an app claiming to educate children ages 1 to 3? No way!

Born Free BPA-Free Pacifiers

Neither of my children used a pacifier, well that’s not entirely true. My son used one for two weeks after having open heart surgery, but it quickly disappeared on the car ride home from the hospital. Many of my friends use pacifiers with their children to help them self-soothe, and there has been research supporting pacifiers help prevent SIDS. Fortunately, parents today have a choice in providing their children with pacifiers made from safer plastics.

Born Free was one of the first companies I encountered that offered BPA-free baby bottles and sippy cups. Now, Born Free is providing parents with BornFree BPA-free Pacifiers for Day and Night too! These pacifiers come in two sizes for ages 0-6 months and 6 + months. Made from materials that are 100% free of bisphenol-A, phthalates and PVC, these pacifiers feature a flexible handle, orthodontic silicone nipple, and a breathable shield. Gil Lemel, founder and CEO of BornFree explains, “BornFree is committed to only providing BPA-Free products. Our goal is to offer a smart and safe alternative for the entire family. The pacifier is the first of many products that will soon be available in our new orthodontic line.”
