Nuby Ice Gel BPA Free Teething Toy

BPA is short for bisphenol A, which is a toxic chemical that can disrupt the function of your cells. Since it can leak from the product it is used in, it is important that parents opt for a BPA-free teething toy. Otherwise, the chemical may enter your baby’s system as he or she chews on the toy.

Once you learn the teething to is free of BPA, you’ll want to check that it is easy for your baby to hold. For example, the Nuby Teethe-eez Silicone Teether With Case has a ring on the bottom that babies can wrap their fingers around.

Look at the texture of the teething toy next. The Bumkins Nintendo Textured Silicone Teether is made from a soft silicone that resists bacteria. In addition to that, the teether has little bumps underneath that work to massage baby’s gums to relieve pressure and pain.

Check to see whether the BPA-free teething toy is safe for placing in a refrigerator or freezer, as the cool temperature will feel great against sore gums. The RaZbaby Hands-Free Textured Silicone Teether is one such model. It’s also designed to be used just like a pacifier, which your little one is most likely already familiar with.

You may also want to choose a teething toy based on cuteness or your baby’s interests. The Tinabless Natural Silicone Giraffe Teether is an excellent toy for children who enjoy animals and bright colors. After the baby’s teeth have finally arrived, the baby can continue to play with it as a toy.

• It is important for parents to always supervise their babies when giving them BPA-free teething toys. Many have parts that can come off and become a potential choking hazard.
• Review the BPA-free teething toy’s cleaning instructions. Some may only be safe to wash by hand, while others can be boiled or placed on the top rack of a dishwasher.
• Other ways to help relieve your baby’s pain during teething include allowing him or her to chew on a cold wet washcloth, providing the little one with a teething biscuit or massaging baby’s gums with your finger.
• Look for any guarantees or product warranties that protect your purchase. You’ll find that some BPA-free teething toys come with 100% money back guarantees, which means you can request a refund if the product is defective or doesn’t live up to your expectations.
• Design is the biggest factor in the overall price of a BPA-free teething toy. You’ll find simpler designs, like the Nuby Teethe-eez Silicone Teether With Case and the RaZbaby Hands-Free Textured Silicone Teether cost much less than sophisticated designs, such as the Bumkins Nintendo Textured Silicone Teether and the Tinabless Natural Silicone Giraffe Teether.
