I have been looking for toys for tiny hands, and, sent from above, a friend answered my prayers: and I ordered Addie her own Green Toys Twist Teether, and she loves it!
Yep, that packaging is 100% recyclable
I have been scared to order her toys off line, but when I heard great reviews from a friend who has a daughter who is tiny (just small for her age), I knew Addie needed this toy. As soon as it came, I washed it up well and handed it over to my tester in the back seat. I heard little clinks and huffs, and as I checked my mirror, I could see her wrapping her lips around the nubs that connect the green rings together. So sweet. Like mommy like baby: doing it her own way.
Her little hands can grasp the toy and there are many surfaces for her to try to help soothe her gums and keep her occupied for a long time (although she does take teething breaks for the press):
The teether is colorful, though not annoying or sex-based (blue vs pink), and keeps Addie’s attention, even when she’s not in the car (the ceiling fan will have competition!). As a mom, I love that it is made in the USA from 100% recycled milk containers that save energy and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. There are NO BPA, PVC, phthalates, or external coatings and it meets FDA food contact standards. (For those who have the luxury, the teether is dishwasher safe too.)
Having a daughter who will need to feel independent with her toys, and will be small for a while, having this toy to satisfy her visual and tactile senses for a time to come is great! Achondroplasia doesn’t mean you can’t play with other toys, but to have something that fits perfectly in tiny hands can make life pretty happy.
Up next… This awesome truck. Girls need to play, too!
I love following your blog! My name is Lisa and I make custom boutique clothing. I would love to make a special outfit of your choice for Addie. I love to use the gift that god has given me to bless others. Please take a look at my website and let me know what you would like for your little sweet heart. I am happy to do a custom set too, if you have an idea, favorite theme or color.

I PM’d you! I’m so excited- and so is Addie!! Thank you!
YAY! I’m so glad that Addie loves it just as much as Avery!
I am SO glad you told us about this awesome toy! It’s a top 5 fave in this house 🙂
Oh my goodness, she is so cute!! That looks like a really cool teether. Can I ask where you got your “Love a Little” bracelet? I’ve never seen them before.
LPA District 7 was selling them! I think you can link them through lpaonline.org 🙂
I love it! I might have to get one for Charlotte. I know she’s about the same size. I just got her an Oball which is really easy for her to hold. She also loves her Sophie the Giraffe to teethe on since she can hold on to the neck easily. Where did you get those cute shoes?

We just got her an Oball which is really easy for her to hold and she loves teething on her Sophie the Giraffe toy since she can hold the neck easily. I’m going to try out the new Sophie teether too. Where did you get the cute shoes?!
Babies R Us! I LOVE them!!!
Addie LOVES Sophie, too. We have the big one and the teether. Toys are so much more awesome for our babies than they were for us! It’s pretty neat going on excursions to find toys for their little hands, too!
