- Continuation from 706.7. Ann and Mike Moore sing African songs, and teach the children a song they learned while camping with the Boy Scouts in Togo. Discusses inspiration for Snugli, and how she had to continuously make changes to the Snugli design, for example adding adjustable straps so she could wear it over a winter coat. Mentions Weego and demonstrates Air Life backpack and fanny pack. Emphasizes how finding a solution to a problem can lead to an invention. The children ask questions about how Ann Moore got the idea for the Air Lift, why the African mothers didn't wear their babies on the front of their bodies, what kind of fabric was used for the Snugli, and how many inventions Moore created.
