Abstract:

There are many video monitors and products that promote speech and language development on the market today. However, what is new in the art to which my invention pertains, is the concept of a portable, adjustable computerized speech and language teacher housed inside a video monitor that actually attaches to various infant furniture. This monitor will exhibit and verbally label pictures of common objects while attached to infant car seats, bouncy chairs, cribs, play yards, highchairs and exersaucers. This invention provides children with an opportunity to learn and develop early speech and language skills through repetition of seeing pictures and hearing their labels. It is similar to flash cards but it is computerized and requires no parent interaction.

There are many baby safe chairs on the market today. However, what is new in the art to which my invention pertains is the video monitor attached anterior to the chair which exhibits and verbally labels realistic pictures of common objects. It is similar to flashcards but requires no parent interaction. Parents can place their child in this safe and educational chair while performing household activities.
