Pump Pals - Toothpaste Dispenser for Children

Anyone with young children, or who have taken care of young children, that sometimes getting the kids to brush their teeth is sometimes more of a hassle than it should be. Firstly, there's the task of convincing them to brush their teeth, sometimes they cooperate and in some cases they are actually keen to brush their teeth! Secondly, and more importantly, there's the issue of mess and wastage.

Children are still in the developmental stages of their motor skills, and as such they do not posses the surprising amount of control in order to regulate just how much toothpaste should go onto a toothbrush. Not only that, but the technique you develop to actually extract the last remnants out of the toothpaste tube! Residue collects onto the toothpaste head, the toothpaste tube is not closed properly (my pet peeve), or the tube is thrown out with plenty of product still in the packaging!

Pump Pals aims to introduce correct toothpaste dosage to children and for them to enjoy the healthy experience of brushing their own teeth! Pump Pals gives children the empowerment and pride in being independant.

By storing and appropriating a pump pack into a fun styled dispenser, the product removes a lot of the motor skills required in squeezing an amount of toothpaste onto a brush. The dispenser extracts a predetermined dosage onto the child's toothbrush. All the child has to do is hold the back of the head and feed the toothbrush into mouth receptacle of the product! A simple and mess free process!

The tapered storage container held within the dispenser is replaceable, cleanable and refillable in order to minimize packaging. The tapered bottom ensures no product is wasted as the product collects at the lowest point of the container, where the pickup tube for the pump is located.

Pump Pals is available in a variety of quirky characters with the possibility of producing promotional runs that reflect current cartoons to further reinforce the 'fun' aspect of dental hygiene.
