BinkiBands: Never Lose a Pacifier Again
Parents know the unique panic that sets in when a pacifier is lost and a child is wailing for it…you search under chairs, look for backups, and in some cases (my own experience in the past), you offer nearby children $5 to find it, wherever it may be. BinkiBands has solved this problem in an inspired way with a bracelet band pacifier that is both easy to put on and take off, and cannot be dropped on a whim into a remote crevice.

Some of BinkiBands many benefits:
* Fuses an orthodontic pacifier with a soft, adjustable wristband that grows with baby.
* Created from safe, 100% food-grade, BPA-free silicone, free from phthalates, lead, PVC, and latex.
* Ideal for babies and children with sensory sensitivities, providing calming relief anytime.
* Keeps the pacifier close, easy to clean, dishwasher-safe, and long-lasting.
* Helps babies self-soothe, and gradually wean from pacifier use.
You can find it in an array of different colors HERE.
