Confused about all the different types of baby bibs?
Bibs are a true and easy way to prevent babies from getting dirty while eating. But, why are there so many different types of baby bibs available on the market?
What exactly are the differences between each of them? Aside from keeping your baby clean during lunch, we will attempt to help explain the purpose of each of the following types of baby bibs.
Here are 5 different types of bibs for babies
Traditional Classic Bibs
The standard classic bib is the most common type for babies. The design of these bibs resembles a half-moon shape with two strips of cloth to tie around the baby’s neck. These bibs are typically made of cotton or terry cloth and perfect at catching babies drool and prevent drool from making your baby wet and cold.
Feeding Bibs
These next bibs take a simple and creative approach at keeping your little ones and your kitchen floor clean. A feeding bib’s top looks similar to a traditional bib, but the bottom has a pocket. The pocket catches both liquids and solids protecting your floors and keeping your little tot clean.
Feeding bibs are typically made out of plastic, silicone or rubber; making them easy to clean.
Smock Bibs
Smock bibs are worn like a t-shirt, covering a baby from neck to knee. These types of bibs are perfect for protecting fancy dresses and beautiful white baby clothes. They are also a lifesaver if you are feeding at a restaurant or someone else’s house. While a bit bulkier, they have an open back, so you can roll up food bits into the material before they get everywhere.
Disposable Bibs
While they may not be practical for everyday use, they can come in handy if you forget one while you’re on vacation or are attending an event where you want to be able to throw away anything that is messy. They are especially helpful when you know you will not be able to get home and clean or spot-treat the material for several hours or days.
Bandana Bib
Bandana bibs are a stylish solution to your teething baby’s drooling. Teething babies can drool a lot. Keep your precious baby dry, comfortable and compliment their clothing with bandana bibs.
Best Bibs by Age Group
Children from 0-6 months will benefit most from regular and drool bibs since they’re usually not eating baby food until they reach around six months of age. Once they hit the 4- to 6-month mark, you will want to start looking for feeding bibs. Smock bibs are not practical for newborns, but you may find a purpose for them as they grow older and begin eating fruits and vegetables.
Baby Bib Care Tips
Bibs are one of the most stain-prone baby accessories. Pre-treating, washing and cleaning are the “magic methods” to keep clean. Clean as soon as possible after use.
