The Benefits of Teething Toys for Babies
Teething is an essential stage in baby development, but it often comes with its own set of discomforts: swollen gums, irritability, a constant need to chew... Teething toys are a valuable ally when it comes to relieving these minor ailments. Here's why they're so beneficial for your little one.
1. Relief from gum pain
The main benefit of a teething toy is to soothe sore gums. By biting on a soft, textured surface, the baby applies gentle pressure to their gums, which helps reduce the discomfort caused by teething. Our sage wood and silicone teething ring is the perfect ally: not only does it look beautiful, but its different soft and hard textures will provide great comfort to your little one. In addition to teething toys, certain products can also be used to relieve pain during teething, including the homeopathic medicine Camilia from the Boiron brand . This is a natural health product available in single doses, easy to administer.
2. Sensory stimulation
Teething toys are designed to awaken the senses: varied shapes, multiple textures, bright colors... They contribute to the tactile, visual and sometimes even auditory awakening of the child. This is the case of our crocheted rabbit rattle which, in addition to its different textures (fabric and wood), emits a small bell sound that will awaken all of baby's senses.
3. Development of motor skills
Grabbing, holding, putting in the mouth... By handling a teething toy, the baby develops his hand-mouth coordination and refines his fine motor skills, essential for future everyday gestures. Our teething flower , thanks to its loop, is perfect for handling by little hands.
4. Promotes autonomy
When a baby finds a way to relieve themselves, they learn to manage minor frustrations or discomfort independently. This helps build their confidence and independence.
5. Safety and hygiene
Our high-quality teething toys are made from safe materials (BPA, PVC, and phthalate-free) and easy to clean. They offer a healthy and controlled alternative to items that babies might instinctively put in their mouths.
In short, teething toys aren't just practical accessories: they're real tools for comfort and development to accompany your baby during their first months. A small object, big benefits!
