Can babys chew on the Vulli Sophie the Giraffe Teether if they already have a few teeth?

My son does. He is 11 months old with 4 teeth (and 2 more on the verge of breaking through). I think it is extremely similar to a dog toy, which can take quite a bit of abuse from chewing. In fact, it is scary how much like a dog toy it is. Of course, that does not stop my son from loving his Sophie! Sophie is a fun shape, a good size for small hands to hold, it obviously feels good on sore gums, and she gets a laugh every time she squeaks. My little boy loves her!

I believe it is the same material. It is made by the same producers of Sophie the Giraffe. My daughter loves this teether and she is now 18 months!

You can, her mouth is nearly an inch deep. A pacifier with a wider end would probably stay in.

My great nephew; who is 15 months old, has been chewing and teething with his Sophie for a while. He shows no ill effects.

I don't know how big a 5 year old's mouth is. I would try the slim model. The bite wings are about 2 inches apart.

Yes, this is safe for a two year old. Nothing is small enough to fit in the mouth.

I have had 2 different rabbits in mine and they have not chewed on it at all. I assume that if they started to, then you could provide more entertainment for them like toys various treats etc. I use mine especially when they are going to have babies. Works wonderful, hoping to get another.

Yes. It doesn't go in the mouth, it attaches to the doll with an magnet inside the pacifier.

As long as they don't put things in their mouth. They do have batteries in them. My youngest will be three next month and is fine, but every kid is different.

If most of the teeth are still present I would say yes. However they are still firm enough that teeth are essential to enjoy this treat.

My 7 mo old baby doesn't have teeth yet and she has loved it for 4 mos now. I don't know how I will feel once she starts having teeth. I don't think the wood looks like it will chip out...but I don't know. Some babies chew on crib rails and I think this would be the same thing. (My first baby never chewed on his crib though, so I don't know). Sorry, I doubt I am much help.

We bought Sophie when our son was 4 months old. He is now 8 months and Sophie has become his favorite toy. Unfortunately, we recently found a small chunk missing from her foot (hoof). He has 2 teeth that have come in so far so it must be possible for teeth to puncture this toy. We are very sad that we've had to take away his favorite toy but since it has now become a choking hazard, we have no choice.

i purchased this today for my 16.5 month daughter. i knew of sophie because it is such a popular registry item, but i didn't get one because i figured my kid would just chew on some other toy. well, she is getting molars now and nothing we have fits the shape of her mouth to get back there for those teeth. i thought of sophie's legs and went and bought one. it was like instant relief. once i gave it to my daughter, she went happily away, chewing on sophie and stopped fussing. sophie seems like an infant toy, but my toddler seems thrilled.

They are soft and chewy for my old girl Ling Ling I break them in half. Ling Ling is missing a few teeth. My youngster at 5yrs Merlin gets 5 pcs am and 5 pcs pm he has weak hip bone.

Yes, a baby can reach the back molars but not far enough to gag. This was one of my son's favorites as well as the banana shaped tooth brush. He got his first two teeth at 4 months so we used them a lot.

They will probably be a bit big. They can bend/form to the mouth, but the tooth size may be too big. (Was tempted to give you an April Fools answer, but I refrained)

My twins were two last august and I think they still like it. Depends on how tall your daughter is. Look at the dimensions of the giraffee and compare to how tall you daughter is. My girls are a little on the short side.
