Aisling with her new Sophie! She seems to enjoy chewing it, hasn't quite figured out now to keep it in her mouth yet though. This is the most interest she's shown in chewing anything other than her and our hands!

Ohhhh, I thought everyone was talking about these 'til I saw your pic: https://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=28499764

I was thinking I didn't know they squeaked! I didn't realise it was harder plastic. I think I would rather get a softer one, I don't know.

Why are they all giraffes?!

 

[Arcanegirl]

Its not plastic, theyre made of a soft rubber.

Yeah, it's very soft rubber, I think that's why young babies like it? So far as I know they tend to be giraffes because of the shape, lots of bits to hold onto and chew...

The legs and arms are easy for LOs to hold on to. The spots (including eyes) are contrasting to the 'skin' of the giraffe, which appeals to young babies. The soft texture of the rubber feels good on the gums.

It also has a cause and effect with the squeaker.
