7 Days of BPA-Free Plastics: Giraffe Teether

Posted by Lisa Mulcahy




Of course bottles are at the top of the BPA-free hit list, but any mother with a teething infant can attest, there’s a wide range of other things that make their way into baby’s mouth, like chemical ridden toys and teethers. Similar to bottles, teethers are often subjected to the high temperatures of sterilization, so there’s an equal risk of leaching. A longtime essential in France, this non-toxic, natural rubber teething toy will satisfy your little chomper’s urge to mouth everything in sight.

Handmade in the French Alps with all natural rubber (phthalate-free) and food quality paints, Sophie the Giraffe from Vulli is just the right shape for babies to get a good grip. And her nubby head seems to soothe sore gums. 

$19.40 at Amazon.
