Product Information
Full details
The Chewy the Hippo Teether by Cheeky Chompers is designed for infants experiencing teething. Its key benefit is providing a safe, textured surface to soothe sore gums while being easy for little hands to hold. A minor caveat is its specific silicone material, which may not suit all babies' chewing preferences. This teether features a cute hippo design, made from soft, pliable silicone with multiple textures to stimulate and massage gums. It's designed to be fridge-friendly for a cooling effect and is easy to clean.

Troubleshooting
Teether not being accepted by the baby
Ensure the teether is clean and at an appropriate temperature (room temp or chilled). Try offering it at different times of day when the baby is most fussy. Some babies may simply have a preference for different textures or shapes.
Difficulty applying teething gel
Use a very small amount of gel and apply it directly to the textured surface of the teether's reverse side. Allow the baby to chew on that area. Ensure the gel is suitable for the baby's age.
Teether feels sticky after washing
Rinse thoroughly under running water to remove all soap residue. Ensure you are using a mild baby-safe soap and not excessive amounts.
