ABSTRACT:
A toy feeding bottle assembly includes a cup-shaped outer warmer housing, and a feeding bottle which is receivable in the warmer housing. The feeding bottle includes concentric transparent inner and outer bottle sections containing a milky liquid therebetween, and an opaque cap portion received on the bottle section in which the milky liquid is received when the bottle is inverted. The bottle assembly further includes a removable, transparent outer sleeve which is adapted to be retained in the warmer portion or retained on the bottle portion. The sleeve is preferably colored to impart a yellow or orange appearance to the milky liquid so that when the sleeve is received on the bottle, the liquid appears to be a juice, whereas when the sleeve is removed from the bottle, the liquid appears to be milk. The warmer housing and removable sleeve are further provided with interlocking posts and slots so that when an arrow on the cap is aligned with a milk icon on the warmer housing the sleeve is retained in the warmer housing when the bottle is subsequently removed therefrom. However, when the bottle is positioned in the warmer housing so that the arrow on the cap is aligned with a juice icon, and the bottle is thereafter removed, the sleeve remains on the bottle so that the liquid appears to be juice.
