I'm trying to decided between the baby toys. Can you help me?
Happy to help! Here is a detailed explanation of the benefits of each of our baby toys.
The wooden play gym have tons of benefits for infants and toddlers development. They provide multi-sensory stimulation, give baby opportunity to practice motor skills, learn new cognitive skills and stimulate their curiosity and imagination.
Non-toxic wooden play gym is one of the best investments that parents can make for their baby’s healthy brain development. It gives the child safe and entertaining space for practicing motor and cognitive skills.
The wooden teether are fantastic when baby’s teeth are erupting, the hardness of the wood helps to take the pressure off from their extremely aching gums! The food grade silicone beads are bouncy and softer which helps to massage baby’s gums when they are feeling sore. Other than that, did you know that Wood is naturally anti-bacterial! Bacteria generally does not live long on wood, which gives it an edge over plastic teethers.
Like the wooden teether, the wooden rattle provides great benefits for babies' awareness of their environment. Slightly moving a rattle often triggers a sound, which provides immediate auditory feedback. By providing instant feedback, babies learn that their actions (moving the rattle) cause a reaction (sound). Because rattles are so easy to handle, they are the first toys that show babies that they can manipulate their environment. The wooden rattle will help to capture baby's attention and encourage grasping skills.
