Stephanie Ann Green is a full time working mother of 3 small kids with an MBA. Her house is comprised of a family of 5 and she is always going to Great Wolfe Lodge with her kids. This past weekend she was there in the wave pool and hundreds of kids were wearing swim goggles and swim masks. She had a funny idea that if these kids had funny eye balls or designs to them, the kids would love to wear them and they would look really cool. Hence the invention of the Googly Goggles.
As mentioned above, kids love this idea and wearing them. This is a very simple invention that includes commercially available goggles and then installing or printing graphics, window perf, decals and stickers on the eye apparatus area of existing goggles or mask. There are many different installation methods and graphic types that work on the goggles such as direct print or adhesive installation.
