“I picked these 4 teether shapes because each one exercises a different part of your baby's hand and mouth — not all teethers do that.”

About this toy
A set of four neem wood teethers for babies 3 to 18 months: Interlocking Discs, Elephant, Dove and Hippo, hand-carved from solid neem, sanded smooth and left natural. Helps soothe sore gums while your baby practises passing a toy from one hand to the other, like switching a biscuit from left to right. Browse all our baby teethers and newborn baby toys for 0 to 6 months.
What's included
- 4 neem wood teethers: Interlocking Discs, Elephant, Dove and Hippo
Each shape works a different part of your baby's hand and mouth: the discs for two-hand play, the Elephant's grip hole for hand-to-hand transfer, the Dove's smooth curves for sore gums and the Hippo's easy-hold shape for both hands.
How your baby uses it at each age
3 to 6 months
First grip. The large 4.5 cm hole is easy for tiny fingers to hook into, and cool, smooth neem soothes the gums as mouthing begins.
6 to 12 months
Hand to hand. Light, balanced shapes make passing from one hand to the other easy, and the drop-and-retrieve loop starts: baby's first cause and effect.
12 to 18 months
The settling toy. Cool to the touch, gently weighted and quiet, a calm object to hold before sleep. Rotate the four shapes to keep interest fresh.
Parents' safety checklist
- Solid Indian neem hardwood, dense and fine-grained, hand-sanded to a smooth polish and left completely natural.
- BIS certified, every batch.
- Use from 3 months with an adult close by. A quick look over each teether before every session keeps play safe.
- Wipe with a slightly damp cloth and air-dry fully. Keep it away from soaking, boiling and the microwave, since water damages raw wood.
- Natural wood tones vary from pale honey to warm reddish-brown. If a piece ever cracks, retire it; we replace any defect reported within 7 days of delivery.
Perfect gift for a newborn
A newborn teether set is the gift that gets used: it waits in the box until mouthing starts around 3 months, then becomes the object your baby reaches for every day until 18 months. Four shapes in gift-ready packaging, ready to give as it is. See more gifts for a 6 month old baby.

A win for everyone
Designed for your baby.
The large grip hole, the gentle weight, the natural grain: together they give your baby a calm object to come back to, again and again.
Built for you, too.
Four teethers means four rotations. While she's absorbed in one, you get back ten quiet minutes: for a hot coffee, a deep breath, or a quiet sit-down.
Questions parents ask
Is raw wood really safe for my baby to chew?
Yes, when the wood is dense, fine-grained, and unfinished. Neem is naturally bitter (so babies rarely chew long enough to splinter), hardwood-dense, and food-safe when raw. Every batch is BIS Certified.
Why do the four pieces look like different colours?
That's natural neem wood. Some pieces come from sapwood (pale honey), some from heartwood (warm reddish-brown). Wood tone variation is a feature of real wood and part of each piece's character.
At what age can I start using this?
From 3 months, when the rooting reflex fades and babies start mouthing objects, through to 18 months. Adult supervision at all times. Inspect each teether before every session.
How do I clean and care for it?
Wipe with a slightly damp cloth and air-dry fully. Keep it away from soaking, boiling and the microwave, since water damages raw wood. Optional: a thin rub of food-safe coconut oil once a month keeps the wood mellow.
What if a teether cracks?
Inspect before every session: natural wood is hardy, and a quick check keeps every session safe. If you spot a crack, retire that piece. We'll happily replace any defect reported within 7 days of delivery.

How to play
The BrainyTots way
Five small habits that turn a good toy into a great one. Printed on the stage card in every box, too.
-
Step 1: Stimulus
Offer the Montessori Teethers on its own. Put the other toys away for now.
-
Step 2: Interaction
Sit with them. Show it once, slowly — then let them try. Name what they do.
-
Step 3: Repetition
Bring it out every day for a week or two. Repeating is how it sticks.
-
Step 4: Progression
When it looks easy, make it harder — add a rule, a sound or a second step.
When it looks easy, the next step is {next}. -
Step 5: Rest
Put it away for a few days. It’ll feel brand new when it comes back.
