Teething is the pits, but with Nuby's Silicone Teether, it doesn't have to be. The textured surfaces massage and stimulate baby's sore gums which helps the emergence of baby's teeth. The teether provides relief for tough teething times and also helps to foster positive associations with healthy foods. The ultra-flexible silicone is twistable, squeezable, and tuggable. Little hands will build hand strength and develop motor skills as they tug and twist the silicone teether. Nuby's Silicone Teether toy is made to last and meets or exceeds all government safety regulations.
