Whether or not your baby is currently showing some of the common signs and symptoms of baby teething, it is important to build up your own toolkit of different ways for how to soothe a teething baby when the time comes. One of the best ways to help our little ones through the pain and discomfort of teething is by offering a variety of teething toys for babies! Fortunately, there are many different types of teethers, and you are sure to find one that your baby will love!
Here are some of the most popular teething toys for infants:
Squeeze and Teethe Toys
Most babies love having a small animal friend to carry around with them. They often become comfort items, as they can easily travel with little ones in the car seat, stroller, crib, high chair, and play mat. Not only are our Squeeze & Teethe toys great for everyday play and travel, they are ideal for soothing sore gums!
The soft and flexible, natural rubber teethers are easy to hold and fun for little teeth and gums to chomp on. Your baby will love to chew on their animal pals bendy legs, squishy ears, and adorable tails. They also make squeaky sounds when they are squeezed! You can choose from the cow, elephant, fox, lamb, lion, monkey, or zebra. Also, our Squeeze and Teethe Textured Pals have easy-to-grasp handles and bumpy textures to soothe tender gums.
Cuddly Teethers
Similarly, our Cuddly Teether toys are a snuggly take-a-long pal that babies love! They are made of unique textures and crinkle sounds that are fun for exploring and for sensory development.
Babies are drawn to the bold colors, playful prints, and soft fabrics. Most importantly, whether you choose a fox, the penguin, or the kangaroo, each of the Cuddly Teethers features three, BPA-free textured teethers that will help your little one find some relief from teething pain.
Silicone Teethers
Silicone is rubber-like material that is considered hypoallergenic, biocompatible, dishwasher safe, and BPA-free, making it a great option for teething babies! Our Good Bites Textured Carrot Teether is perfect for soothing tender gums and providing teething relief. It is made of soft silicone and features easy to hold handles and interesting textures on the carrot leaves and tip.
You’ll also love our Flipsider Silicone Teether - a two-sided, super soft, and textured teether with its very own character and easy-to-grasp handle. The yellow side is a lion, and the green side is a peacock!
Teething Rattles
Teething rattles are another great way to combine engaging play with teething relief. Our Spin and Teethe Gummy Rattle has lots of busy activities for little ones to discover. The multi-texture petals are perfect for teething and sensory learning, and they surround a roller ball center that has bouncy rainbow beads. The handle also includes spinning, chaser beads, and is easy for tiny hands to grasp, hold, and shake!
Vibrating Teethers
Vibrating teethers are one of the best ways to bring quick relief to your teething baby! The movement and pressure from the vibrations truly help to soothe sore gums. Our Strawberry and Grape Vibrating Teethers are soft, gummy, colorful, BPA-free, and textured. The soothing vibration is activated when babies chomp, which softly massages their little gums.
Another option is our Vibrating Water Teether, which is adorably shaped like a turtle! This 2-in-1 multi-functional teether toy offers two different ways to soothe sore gums. Firstly, the turtle’s water-filled head serves as a cool, gummy teether. Also, the turtle vibrates when babies bite down on its soft, textured shell. It also has an easy to grasp handle, which is perfect for little hands!
Cooling Teething Toys
Teethers that can be cooled in the refrigerator provide an extra level of comfort to babies that are experiencing teething pain. While simply biting down on teething toys for babies creates pressure that helps alleviate discomfort, there is truly nothing like cold relief on sore gums. Our simple Water Teethers help soothe baby’s tender gums with their textured design.
Not only can they be chilled in the fridge, but their circle shape makes it easy for little ones to grip and chew them. Similarly, Cool and Chew Teether Keys are a great combination between teething rattles and cooling relief! Not only is this toy colorful and engaging to the senses, but it has three uniquely textured keys that can be cooled in the fridge to help provide teething relief! The key ring is easy to grasp, with colorful beads that spin and rattle.
We know this is a tough time for you and your little one—not knowing how long their teething will last, catering to their every symptom, and not knowing what to do when it seems like you’ve tried everything. But the good news is that teething toys can be an immense help!
No matter which teething toys for babies you choose for your little one, we are hopeful that they (and you!) will find some relief!
