Are teethers good for babies?
The chewing and mouth movement that occurs when your baby is gnawing on a teether is actually really important — it trains the tongue and helps develop the speech sounds needed to say their first words. We also all know babies love to put things in their mouths, so teethers can offer an alternative option that is safer and more hygienic.
Teethers are also a worthwhile investment for when your baby is around four to six months old or if they have just sprouted their first tooth. Known for being a difficult time for everyone involved, teething can cause your baby strong discomfort and so a teething ring can truly be a lifesaver. Teethers can alleviate pain as light pressure is applied to sore gums and some can even vibrate and be refrigerated for extra comfort and relief.
Which teether is best for babies?
When it comes to teethers, there is an overwhelming variety to pick from so we recommend picking a few to trial which one is your baby’s favourite. The most important factors to keep in mind are how durable and easy to clean the teething toy is, as well as if it will keep your child engaged and has no rough edges. At Hip Kids we only stock teethers that are BPA free, phthalate-free, and non-toxic and made from sturdy and safe materials like silicone and beech wood.
