A container gripping aid (1) has a jacket (2) for reception of a container such as a baby bottle (3). The jacket (2) has a mesh configuration with a plurality of through-holes (5) to facilitate gripping of the jacket (2) by a baby. The jacket (2) has an egg-like shape. Thus, when it is engaged with the bottle (3), most of the jacket (2) side wall is supported spaced-apart from an exterior side wall (6) of the container (3) which enables a baby to easily grip the mesh of the jacket (2).
