Abstract
A crib shield system includes one or more panels to be used with crib. The panels are formed, at least in part, of a mesh-type material (e.g., an integrated padded mesh material) that includes openings too small to permit an infant to insert a finger or toe therethrough. Further, the integrated padded mesh material may be used with one or more other apparatus (e.g., a blanket, a toy, etc.).
Claims27
1-30. (canceled)
An apparatus comprising:
- a planar body portion configured as a sheet for use proximate the mouth of a human being as the human being is lying thereon, wherein the planar body portion comprises a plurality of layers of material laid flat against each other to provide at least upper and lower surfaces of the body portion, wherein the plurality of layers of material comprise:
- a layer of a breathable integrated padded mesh material, wherein the breathable integrated padded mesh material comprises a front substructure, a back substructure, and a pile substructure integrated with and extending between the front and back substructures, wherein each of the substructures allows air to substantially move effectively therethrough;
- and
- a layer of polymeric material coupled to the layer of breathable integrated padded mesh material.
