Playful and child friendly, this teether offers a different kind of comfort. The textured chewable star points produce a safe, soothing vibration whenever the child bites down on them. It's powered by a small long life battery that's sealed inside.In a relatively new concept in teething, The First Years introduces this massaging action teether. The concept is really quite simple: offer even the youngest infants a means to massage their gums at will. The massaging action increases circulation, thereby helping to alleviate swelling and discomfort. This soft, yellow, star-shaped teether has a smiling face and three nubby points that vibrate when a child bites down on them. The star sits upon an oversized blue plastic handle that's easy for even the youngest child to grasp. There's also an opening at the bottom of the handle that accepts a toy strap. The star rattle is surface washable and is powered by a nonreplaceable battery that's sealed inside the teether's hand le for maximum safety. --Tami Horiuchi

This review is from: The First Years Massaging Action Teether (Baby Product) I had this very teether for my twin boys 8 years ago and they absolutely loved it. So, when my new baby started teething, I sought out the same teether. I was surprised when it arrived and the packaging stated that the product is, "safety tested" for BPA, lead, and phthalates. It does not state ANYWHERE on the package that it is BPA free. As a former regulator (of medical devices) I am very sensitive about company labeling and statements. Perhaps too much so. But, I would rather err on the side of caution where my child is concerned, and the lack of clear "BPA free" labeling on this product gives me pause. Specifically, when they test it for BPA, lead, and phthalates, is there an acceptable amount allowed?! If not, why wouldn't the company simply label the product as BPA, lead, and phthalate free? 0 Eight years ago, when I gave this toy to my sons, no one had ever heard of BPA. My boys put all manner of plastic toys in their mouths, a nd I'm sure it was all riddled with BPA. But, in this day and age, when BPA is strongly suspected of being dangerous, I cannot in good conscience allow my new baby to chew on anything that MAY contain it. And, though someone on this site indicated that a representative from the company TOLD them it was BPA free, I'm still skeptical. Again, why not label it as such? Most companies proudly label their products with that simple language that cannot be confused. 10 of 10 people found the following review helpful  Great Teether, = Durability:  = Fun: = Educational: This review is from: The First Years Massaging Action Teether (Baby Product) My son who is 7 months old loves this vibrating teether. I am not sure about some of the other reviews but the battery can be replaced easily and its very soft and durable. On the drive to daycare each morning all you hear is the vibration from it. Its also very easy to wash off and we haven't had any trouble with it. 0 7 of 7 people found the following review helpful Great teether and toy!, By A Customer = Durability: = Fun: = Educational: This review is from: The First Years Massaging Action Teether (Baby Product) My son has been teething for 3 months (he is 7 months old) and he got this teether from his mom-mom and pop-pop for Christmas and it has been a lifesaver. It took him a few days to get used to the vibration of the teether but now he loves it. It also makes a great toy for him! 0 |
