ABSTRACT:
A sound-emitting knee pad apparatus includes a pad assembly which emits a sound when located between a knee of an infant person and a floor surface when the person is crawling on the floor surface. A pad connector assembly connects the pad assembly to a knee of the person or to an outside surface of a knee-juxtaposed region of a garment worn by the person. The pad connector assembly includes a first connector assembly attached to an outside surface of a knee-juxtaposed region of a garment. A second connector assembly is attached to an outside surface of the pad assembly. The first connector assembly is a quantity of hook-or-loop connector material. The second connector assembly is a quantity of complementary loop-or-hook connector material. The pad assembly may be comprised of a rubber material. Alternatively, the pad assembly may include an air chamber assembly which includes a plurality of resilient exterior walls which define an interior air chamber. A whistle assembly is supported by one of the resilient exterior walls. The whistle assembly provides an air communication path between the interior air chamber and air outside the interior air chamber. The pad connector assembly may include a strap assembly which includes a first end connected to a first side of the pad assembly and includes a second end connected to a second side of the pad assembly. The strap assembly is comprised of elastic resilient material.
