Best teether for babies [165 OF 338 PEOPLE FOUND THIS HELPFUL]
We take these everywhere! They are a great alternative to plastic teethers because they are organic cotton and because they are easy to clean. I didn't see the washing instructions on the site, but I toss these in the washing machine with our regular laundry and they come out good as new.

My son loves these! [189 OF 367 PEOPLE FOUND THIS HELPFUL]
My toddler loves to play with his older brother's kitchen toys, so I picked these up for him. They are great! Since they are organic cotton, I don't worry about him chewing on them and they are easy for him to carry.

Organic and fun [239 OF 440 PEOPLE FOUND THIS HELPFUL]
These veggies are a hit in this house. They are super soft and my daughter loves chewing on them. We have the fruits and veggies and I love that they are organic and that she is identifying vegetables and healthy eating habits. You can wet these and freeze them for even more teething delight. As she grows we will use them in the kitchen my dad built for her. We bring these along when we travel too and she loves playing with them.
