A container for feeding infants which has a body (20) formed by blow molding constructed of a thermoplastic material permitting light transmission. The container is shaped like a baby bottle or cup (28) and contains, in formulation, along with the thermoplastic material a thermochromic composition consisting of from 5 to 10 percent by weight. This combination permits the container to undergo a distinct change in color when the temperature within exceeds a given threshold providing a conspicuous indication of the liquid contents if above the human zone of comfort. Another embodiment incorporates the thermochromatic composition in the middle composite of a multi-layered polyethylene bag for use with baby feeding container having a rigid outer enclosure and a polyethylene liner bag.

A thermochromatic infant feeding container changing color in the presence of heat comprising, a cylindrically shaped container body formed by blow molding having an opening on one end with threads formed integrally therewith in such a manner as to receive a threaded cap, said body synthesized of a thermoplastic material having the characteristics of allowing light to be transmitted therethrough permitting the level of any contents to be visually observed, and said body having the thermoplastic material including a thermochromatic microcapsular composition relating to from 5 to 10 percent, by weight, of said thermoplastic material, formulated such that the container undergoes a distinct change in color at a temperature range from between 36 degrees celsius and 38 degrees celsius, with a first color below this thermochromatic transition and a second visually different color thereabove providing a conspicuous indication to one feeding an infant the temperature of the contents are not in excess of the human temperature zone of comfort.
