Toddler Proof IPhone Case

My husband saw a toddler-proof iPhone case online and now we can't find it again. Hope me.
He said that the bottom of the case pulled down and turned around to cover the home button, so that you could let your toddler use an app without going elsewhere on the phone. You could then pull the bottom of the case down and turn it around to the other side if you want the home key to be accessible. I would be interested in buying this case but my Google fu is failing me.

Best answer: Could this be what he saw? It flips to cover the home button, but it's not clear that it was made since the iPhone 4S and the website for the company appears to be defunct...
This isn't the thing your husband saw, but there is a product called bubcaps that is a stiff sticker that claims to be too rigid for toddlers but just pliable enough for adults to bend.
There are a bunch of iPad covers with home button protection like fisher-price and addycase. I'm not seeing as many for iPhones.
The fisher-price iphone case also has home button protection but it's more for babies and is definitely not portable or easy to use in the way the one you describe is.

Best answer: Bubcaps worked for us during the time period that this was an issue. They kept the kid contained and were not too cumbersome for the adults.

Response by poster: Oh well, doesn't look like what I'm looking for is really out there... But thank you for the helpful answers!
