Nozee Blowzee or Nose Whistle, Nose-blowing device '
This little device is the brain-child of South-African inventor, Corrie Nel. In his words, " It all started when my daughter, now age 16, was only 2 years old and I realized that it was not that easy to teach a kid to blow through their nose. To teach a kid to clap their hands is relatively easy, as they will easily copy you, but teaching them to blow through their nose is much harder."
Monica Monsanto of Ideanav in South-Africa helped with the re-design of the product.
Anthony Zantwijk of Sibanda and Zandwijk Patent Attorneys, assisted with the patent-searches and product registrations.
Martin Havenga of protolink3D supplied the prototypes for the product-Trials

DR Mary Barbera, (BSBA-D) also and author of a book on Autism and runs her own online-site for parent of kids with Autism, was one of the first professional to try out one of the prototypes.
