37 Childish Adult Innovations

From Diapers for Brides to Grown-Up Bunk Beds

— July 4, 2010 — Art & Design
They say age ain't nothing but a number, and this cluster of childish adult innovations definitely proves that statement. It's easy to keep your inner child alive when you can pick up Barbie makeup, adult-sized cribs and LEGO headphones. So if you need to revisit your youth, then one of these childish adult innovations may be in order. From diapers for brides to grown-up bunk beds, check 'em out above.

Implications - Probably my favorite among these childish adult innovations is the children's beer books. It's never too young to introduce kids to the wonders of an alcoholic beverage. Then there are adult teddy bears, which I am not ashamed to admit that I'd buy if given the opportunity.
