Abstract
An asphyxiation-safe adjustable bib and placemat provides a bib having a rear surface that supports a bib retainer in one of a plurality of positions so a length of the bib can be adjusted to accommodate a height of a wearer. The bib retainer and a portion of the bib adjacent the bib retainer are inserted into a bib retainer channel of the placemat to secure the bib to the placemat. The bib retainer in the bib retainer channel resists movement of the bib away from the placemat but enables forceful movement of the bib away from the placemat to protect against injury due to asphyxiation if the wearer slips or falls from a chair while using the bib and placemat.
