Why These are My Favourite Teethers

So many mama's can relate that once teething sets in, trying to scramble and find the right teether that your baby will enjoy is challenging. You want something that your baby will enjoy. You want something that is safe and free from toxins. Ultimately, you want something that is easy to clean.

As someone who is constantly saving and scrolling through endless baby boutique shops on Instagram. I have found not only an independent business who creates safe baby teethers, but her designs are flawless. Until I became a mom, I didn't really pay too much attention in finding local, Canadian shops. Now, this is something I focus on. Helping local, small businesses build their brand. It really helps when their products are a perfect fit with design, style and safe.

If you're like me and you seek locally owned businesses, that design beautiful, safe, and stylish teethers and accessories, I highly suggest you check out this Canadian shop!

Addy’s Teethers

Locally made in Hamilton, Ontario. Addy uses safe, food grade materials with all of her teethers and teether accessories. Every teether and teether clip is in full rotation between play, teething, and being used as a distraction while running errands and travel.

Even though most baby products are found to be gendered, with Addy's Teethers you can customize with letters and several colour options. This allows for a personal touch for your little one or can be given as a gift for someone else. These are easily paired with outfits, providing a unique and modern element.

I know you are wondering, "How Are These Safe?" All materials, silicone and wood, are a Food Grade safe. While your little one is chewing on these teethers or teether clips, you can feel confident that these are safe and free of any toxins.

“How do you clean?”, All products are safe to wash with mild soap and water and let air dry. Super simple! That's it!

Let’s take a look at the products below:

Teething Ring

Pros: This design is perfect for small hands. Allowing most ages from 3+ months the ability to hold and bring the teether to their mouth. This teether is safe and easy to chill in the freezer for those teething moments.
Easy to clean!
Safe!

Cons: With most silicone materials, these rings can attract lint and dust.


I cannot say enough great things about the Teether Ring. The size, the material, and let us not forget how customizable they are: You can choose from several different colour combinations or make it personalized with a name.

Teether Clip

Pros: This design is perfect. It is not too long to become unsafe for baby, but it's long enough to attach a pacifier or used to clip a teether. All of the teether clips are safe for chewing and the clip comes in two styles: safe metal clip or wooden clip. Most items you can choose to customize with a name, use safe wood beads, or food grade silicone.
Easy to clean!
Safe!

Cons: With most silicone materials, these beads can attract lint and dust.


The length, the material, and let us not forget how customizable they are. You can choose from several different colour combinations and personalized names as well.

C-Clip

Pros: This design is perfectly crafted. It is not too short, allowing the length needed to attach to a variety of items. I was able to try this clip out. I attached it to a snack cup, sippy cup, a stroller toy, you name it! The beads are larger for chewing and sturdy. The attachment C-style hook is plastic, making it safe in case your baby detaches the clip. Most items you can choose to customize with a name, safe wood beads, or food grade silicone.
Easy to clean!
Safe!

Cons: With most silicone materials, these beads can attract lint and dust.
I found that this clip was hard to attach to a non cylinder like handle or bar. With my stroller and car seat the handle is more flat and rectangular making the clip hard to attach. I had to clip it to the car seat shade in order to make this clip work. This was not the most ideal, but it did work, and I was able to keep my daughters travel blanket secured.


The length, the material, and let us not forget how customizable they are! You can choose from several different colour combinations as well. I would like to see the length a bit longer or perhaps offering a longer option, but overall, I found this incredibly useful.
