Dad Recommends... Unbreakable Mirrors For Kids

I'm in the midst of trying to baby proof a mirror my daughter received for her fourth birthday. Even though she is way more careful than her two year old twin brothers, there's still a reasonable risk of it breaking. And if her brothers get a hold of it, it wouldn't last an hour. My first tactic is to glue felt to the back of the mirror so that if it does break, the glass won't scatter and go everywhere. Then I'm going to try to mount the whole thing to a sturdy wood frame, and then mount that to the wall in her room.

All of this work made me wonder about better solutions: are there unbreakable mirrors for children? A quick search on Amazon found unbreakable travel mirrors, a Soft N Style brand unbreakable handheld mirror, and a Salon Mirrors unbreakable boudoir mirror, all for under $20. And if you want an unbreakable wall-size mirror, then there's the $76 Soft Frame Mirror.
