When my daughter got to the age where she was not only on solid foods, she also wanted to try holding the spoon and feeding them to herself (around 9 months for us), we soon found that smaller fronted bibs were just inadequate as she'd get food anywhere and everywere. Since we also wanted to get her a coverall for painting and so on, we went to Mothercare and found a 2 pack of Mothercare Coverall Bibs for £5.99 which we initially thought was fair. The Mothercare Coverall Bibs are very plain, ours are as the picture, white with a coloured band around the neck and wrist, though you can get them in bright primary colours also at the same price. They are ...  Read the complete review

When in Mothercare a few months ago I picked up a couple of packets of their coverall bibs. I started weaning my son at 6 months old giving him puréed foods, but now he is 9 months old he loves having finger foods and feeding himself, which gets very messy! He ends up with food all over him, all over his clothes, all over the floor and high chair! I have to let him do his thing with his food though, it's the only way he is going to learn to feed himself! These coverall bibs are brilliant for babies who are having finger foods. They have sleeves to put your babies arms in, and they cover the whole front of them, saving their clothes from needing changing after ...  Read the complete review

Weaning and independent feeding can be a messy business, so I am always looking for ways to cut down on the cleaning up and laundry associated with feeding my youngest son. I picked up a twin pack of these 'coverall' style bibs from Mothercare when my son was around a year old, in a vain attempt to protect his clothing from the inevitable mess he creates and reduce the amount of washing I had to do. There is something reminiscent about a straitjacket with this style of bib, as it covers not only the front of a baby's clothing but also the entire length of the arms. This was precisely what I was looking for as I found that my son tended to trail his sleeves ...  Read the complete review

Having bought and used some of the Mothercare Coverall Bibs I can say they do have lots to offer depending on which type you opt for. Having tried out both the Peva based bibs and the material based bibs, I feel that the material based ones were the ones that worked best for us. As children move through the stages of weaning and become more accustomed to larger and more varied food groups, a good quality protective bib is something that can be very helpful. The Mothercare Coverall Bibs can help to protect a childs clothing from spills and stains and there are a number of designs and types you can choose ...  Read the complete review

These bibs were purchased for my daughter when she was around 8 months old and proving to be more than a messy eater. However, I am not overly fond of this type of bib. For some reason it makes me think of a straight jacket! And I find them a little bit cheap looking. The ones I got had a cupcake on one and a little girl on the other with a bowl of food. My daughter was purchased the 12-18 month ones which fitted her fine at 9 months old. They came in a 2 pack and were from Mothercare though I am not sure of the price. The bibs were long sleeves to protect any clothing underneath with elasticated wrists to prevent them hanging and dipping into ...  Read the complete review
