Fourth-Grader Invents Brilliant Device For Parents

When an elementary school held an “Invention Convention,” one fourth-grader took it as an opportunity to invent something that may have a serious impact on the world.

Sophie Rapson is a fourth-grade student whose invention may go a long way in making sure that parents never leave their baby in the car ever again.

When tasked with inventing something for the Invention Convention, Sophie brainstormed with her parents and came up with an idea to ensure that no baby is left alone in a car again. She calls her invention “Sophie’s Baby Forget-Me-Not.”

Sophie and her parents figured out a way to solve this problem using a stretchy cord with two velcro loops – one on each end. One piece of velcro attaches to the strap in the car seat, while the other end attaches to the parent’s keys. This will ensure that when the parent gets out of their car, they cannot go anywhere without first getting their child out of the car seat.

Sophie’s parents made a video presentation to show off their daughter’s invention. Watch the video here for more information on Sophie’s brilliant idea:
