Sophie the Giraffe

Any cranky, teething baby would appreciate a smiling friend to help her through the pain, and if the friend’s head is chewable, so much the better. Sophie the Giraffe ($24) is designed to cheer up and soothe little ones during those painful eruptions with her sweet expression and bumpy head that’s so satisfying to gnaw. Hand made of natural rubber, French babies have been teething with Sophie for nearly 50 years, and now she’s finally made it stateside.
