The best way to help is giving them something safe and appropriate to chew that allows for a little counter-pressure. Babies are famously choosey, as you've likely already learned from trying bottles or pacifiers, which is why we rounded up 11 of the best baby teething toys on the market today. Your baby will tell you whether the freezer teether, bib, mitt, or some other option works best! Teething Toy: Nuby Baby Soothing Banana Teether Courtesy of Amazon Buy on Walmart Buy on Walgreens Families are just crazy about this banana-shaped teething toy! The Nuby Nananubs Banana Massaging Toothbrush is all about the shape—it's long and thin and can reach even your baby's back gums. The handles make it easy for your baby to wield, and sterilizing is a cinch. As a bonus, the soft silicone bristles promote oral hygiene by gently cleansing your baby's tiny teeth! Mom's Necklace: Chewbeads Buy Buy Baby Buy on Amazon Buy on Maisonette.com Wear Chewbeads (or just hand them to your kid) and they'll have something to grab onto and gnaw wherever you are. The beads are made from soft, nontoxic silicone and come in bright colors or your basic black and gray. The necklaces are great accessories on their own, too—we've had staff moms wear them past their baby's teething stage!

It comes with a carrying case to keep it nice and clean (and easy to find in your bag).

There are several flashcard options including numbers, letters, sports objects, animals, and shapes. The cards can also be kept on a ring and attached to a highchair, carseat, or stroller for easy access.

After a long day of being chewed, Sophie can go straight into the dishwasher for a bath. Price at time of publication: $27 Updated by Melissa Bykofsky Was this page helpful? Thanks for your feedback!
