LAVA LAMP BABY CRIB

LAVA LAMP BABY CRIB

BALTIMORE (Wireless Flash) -- A new high-tech baby crib may give some former hippies a flashback or two. The futuristic acrylic crib, called the "Baby Wave," actually surrounds the baby with a moving "wave" of colored oil - - sort of like a Lava Lamp. Inventor Brent Farley says he was inspired to create the Baby Wave by his son, who never fell asleep as an infant unless he was in motion. Although the inventor has high hopes, he admits it may be a while before the Austin Powers-inspired crib hits stores because he's still looking for a manufacturer. In the meantime, Farley has a prototype of his Lava Lamp- like bassinet sitting in his Baltimore home.
