Baby Banana Bendable Training Toothbrush, Toddler

After looking for (and trying) various baby teethers, I came across the Baby Banana and decided to buy one for my then 4 month old. He was at the stage where he wanted to constantly chew on something with his gums. If your baby is at the grab and put everything in mouth stage, THIS is the toy/teether for you. My baby is now 6 months old and this is still his favorite toy/teether to play with. It keeps him busy for a good 20-30 minutes (which all parents know is pretty crazy). The conventional round shaped teethers are useless in my opinion. The baby can never properly fit the round teethers in their mouth and just get frustrated. This is even MUCH BETTER than Sophie the Giraffe. My baby chewed on Sophies leg the first 2 days, and then lost interest. Theres something about the Baby Banana that he loves. It really helps massage & soothe his gums. If your baby likes chewing on your fingers or his own - THIS IS the teether to get. Its shaped just like a finger, and your baby can reach the back gums and poke it around. Round teethers wont help soothe the gums deep inside. This thing is so baby friendly its amazing. The handles give a really good grip to the baby, and the baby can chew on both ends, as well as the handles. The peel shaped handles also allow you to put those plastic links through, so you can hang the banana onto the babys clothes or stroller or seat, and it wont fall to the ground. (Sophie doesnt have anything to attach to). My baby really has a go at it, you can hear the silicone squeaking against those baby gums. Im just happy I found the PERFECT teether to soothe my babys gums. He still doesnt have teeth yet, so Im sure he will be able to chew off the bristle shaped head when he gets a couple of teeth. I would buy 2, keep one at home, and one in the baby bag. Make sure you wash the bristles thoroughly though, because little threads or fuzz can get trapped between bristles, but its very easy to clean. Highly recommend this. Probably the only teether you need!

My now 7 month old loves it, and it seems to really help soothe his need to gum on things as he’s teething.

This is my sons favorite teether. When I got it I expected only the top to be squishy, but the entire thing is made of silicone so it is great for a baby to teethe on. Its easy for baby to hold and the peel handles keep baby from choking themselves with it. My son is 8 months old and has 7 teeth now and he hasnt chewed off any bristles or pieces and he adores this banana. He loves to use it on the back of his gums and has never been a fan of ring teethers. We do have pets and the silicone does attract hair/fur very easily, but we make sure to keep it clean and off the floor and a good teether does wonders for my childs mood so it is all too worth it. This is perfect and cute, thanks! UPDATE: My son is now 11 months and has 9 teeth and even with all of its use he has not bitten anything off. Its a hit and we keep buying it for friends. With a little baby toothpaste on the end he will go to town with it. He even shows his teeth for me now if I try to brush them with it. I dont think I would recommend it as your primary toothbrush, but it does help baby to be comfortable with having their teeth brushed. I can brush my sons teeth with a soft bristle brush now with no problems because he has been used to me brushing his gums with the banana for so long.

My baby loves this little banana! Easy to use and clean

Idk about you all but I am TERRIBLE about remembering to brush my baby’s gums. That is not good with her Mimi being a dentist and all. Anyways, this does the job for me. My three month old brushes her own gums unknowingly while chewing on this teether. It is such a life saver.

That being said, I am still giving a ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5 star review. Why? Well, the bristles are tightly nestled together, it goes into a babys wet mouth, so that is the nature of a product like this. It is my fault for not cleaning more. So take note, clean this more frequently. Def has longevity too. I bought this June 2018. It is now September 2020 and my 6 month old loves it. My 1st child was never a fan, but it was probably bouncing around the house from the time I ordered it until he was maybe 1. So 8 months? Not used much. With my 2nd child, I pulled it out when he was maybe 2 months and def his favorite. Some babies will love it, some will not.

Big lump of knobs

Pros: Our LO loves bananas, so this was an exciting thing for her to get. After understanding the concept wed brush our teeth morning and night with no complaints. Easy to clean, soft and exciting. Cons: Only one for me. The bristles would eventually break off after my LO chewed over dozens of uses, so expect to replace every so often if your little one likes to brush and gnaw on their toothbrushes. Would I buy again? Yes. Would I recommend? Yes. Would I gift? Yes.

We got it as a teether and to hopefully kick off some good dental hygiene. It’s easy to hold, apparently wonderful on the gums, and you can throw it in the dishwasher.

This item is cute and handy! My little man loves chomping on it and getting is gums brushed by me. :-) I would definitely recommend to a friend. A.J.L.
