I'm still not convinced that placing an expensive bit of electronics in the hands of an infant is ever a good idea, but with its Laugh and Learn Apptivity Case, Fisher-Price appears to disagree.
The $15 colorful plastic contraption acts as a cradle for the iPhone or iPhone Touch, allowing young ones aged from 6 months to 36 months to poke and befoul the devices' pristine facades without the risk of destroying them. The device also features colored rattles on its handles and a mirror on its back, allowing it to retain its status as a somewhat entertaining (albeit not as exciting) children's toy even when the iPhone isn't present.
Fisher-Price will start selling the Laugh and Learn Apptivity Case this October.
