When I heard about the Baby Mop I thought it had to be a joke and that is how it started. In Japan they have spoof news reports about useless inventions and the baby mop was first seen there. "Saturday Night Live" also featured the Baby Mop on Weekend Update,but it is now a real product. For $40 you can outfit your baby as a cleaning tool and apparently sales of the device are doing well. The idea is that since you can't stop a baby from crawling and have little time for cleaning with a baby in the house that you can harness that crawling energy to do the work for you. As you might expect there has been some negative feedback,but the positive comments out number the bad. My first thought was someone was going to jump on the child labor law soap box and that would be the end of the product,but so far they are mopping up!
