Try Playsilks in the Water!
Put your Playsilks in water to make bubbles.
A silk & wood childhood
Play is the world of the child. Through play the child learns and discovers their inner selves and the outer world around them!
Open-ended, loose parts essential toy
Children naturally engage in deep, meaningful play when provided with simple, open-ended toys, like Playsilks.
The wood ring is not as thick as pictured. It looks much cheaper in real life.
Hi Kristin, We're sorry to hear you were disappointed with the Rainbow baby teether. If you would like to reach out to our Customer Care Team, we would love to help find a solution. We truly appreciate your feedback.
7 month old loves! We have a dozen silks for older sibling, and baby loves playing with them. When I saw they had a teether, I had to grab it!
Thank you for sharing that there is something for everyone!
Incredible! My daughters love creating worlds with the play silks
Fantastic! Thank you for sharing Katie!
Beautiful product. My 9 month olds teeth are just beginning to peek through and she has loved gnawing on this! She also loves flapping it around and seeing the silks flutter, definitely a toy that will transition past the teething phase!
How wonderful to hear, Emma!:)
Love these. Will be much fun for the twins
We hope they love their new teethers!
Love these. Will be much fun for the twins
We hope they love their new teethers!
So cute and fun. Doesn’t totally engage my 10 month old, but not much does!! Lol. Might’ve been better when he was a little younger. The silk can be untied to use separate, so great value either way
Hi Emma,
We are glad to hear that you are finding unique ways to play with the teethers!
I love your products for my children so when a friend had a baby, I wanted to give them a gift that is made of quality materials.
Thank you so much, we are so glad to hear this😊
This is a lovely piece and would make a beautiful baby shower gift.
Thank you so much Laura!
Love the natural ingredients for my baby
We are so glad the Baby Teether has been a hit!✨
Such a beautiful teether. A product I could feel comfortable giving to my almost one year old who wants to put anything and everything in her mouth. The wood is solid and smooth, but also light enough for a baby’s hands. Even her four year old brother enjoys the feel of the silk. And I really love the color of the rainbow silk.
We are so glad the Baby Teether was such a hit for everyone!😊
I love giving these teethers as baby gifts. Once the baby outgrows the teething stage, the mini playsilk can be untied and used indefinitely in other ways. And I love that it is a “silent” toy that can be used in church, waiting rooms, etc. without disturbing others.
The Rainbow Baby Teether makes a great toy that lasts for several ages and stages! Thank you for the review.❤️
I bought a couple of these as gifts for friends. I love giving them to new parents as an adorable introduction to the world of silks. The wood is smooth & the mini silk is super cute.
That is so sweet that you think of Sarah's Silks for gift-giving! Thank you so much, we are so happy you love the products😊
This beautiful piece is exactly what I was looking for as a gift for a new baby! The quality, versatility, and dreaminess of these materials is exceptional. Inspiration and exploration await!
What a lovely gift for a new baby! We hope the little one loves it <3
This is a favorite!
My grandchildren love these silks.
I bought this for other babies in our family in the past and now bought again it while pregnant with our second child.
Good. He loves it.
The perfect new baby gift. Great for teething and later as a versatile mini silk!
One of my baby’s favorite teethers! It’s so beautiful.
Such a high-quality baby teether.
I was gifted one of these teether for my own son and it was by far his favourite toy as an infant. It is now my go to gift for new parents and I have gotten great feedback :)
This was a gift for my 3 month old nephew who just started to grasp things and bring them to his mouth. He loves it and played with it a long time!
I was not sure what to expect from this toy but I am so glad I bought it. My daughter has spent hours just holding the silk and gently srunching it together. She isn’t too interested in the ring yet but I like that it is there for later. Great quality and it really accelerated her hand control and interest in holding things.
That is awesome to hear! Thanks so much for sharing :)
My 5-month-old loves the bright colors and chewing on the silk and will roll and scoot herself across her play mat to get to it.
Beautiful colors, high quality wood, perfect size. I can’t wait to see our baby play with this!
My 3 month old baby loves to hold the silk and look at it! Perfect for babies
So far my son has loved playing with this and biting on it. The item is bigger than I thought and appears great in photographs! My only critique is that the wood has already snagged the silk. I untied the silk shortly after receiving it, and there was already snags/pulls. The wood has a very smooth feel - it is just unfinished, which is best for a mouthing baby!
I recently purchased two silk and wood teethers as baby gifts, and I couldn't be more pleased. The silk is beautiful and soft, and the round wooden teethers are smooth and sturdy. I am happy to have unique, beautiful, useful gifts for some special babies.
I got this teether for my niece and I can’t wait to see her use it!
Our baby can’t keep her eyes, fingers, and curious mouth off this sweet toy
Purchased as a gift for a baby shower. Arrived quickly. Beautiful! I’m sure it will be well loved.
