If you are part of any of the babywearing communities on facebook, you will have heard of Suzi's beautiful wrap scrap animals before... if not... let me tell you a little about them. First of all... girl has TALENT!!! As a crafty person myself, I will tell you this, sewing is NOT easy... sewing little tiny pieces together... even harder... sewing tiny pieces together and having them look AWESOME... nearly impossible. Suzi, seems to whip up these little guys in no time at all, and they look amazing. I must admit, I am jealous of her skills. Teach me your ways, oh wise crafter! These sweet little guys are the perfect size for your little one to grasp themselves, and can easily be tethered onto any pacifier or toy leash for the perfect addition to any baby carrier. If your child is like mine, that leash will come in handy ;) and save your poor back and knees every time said child throws said giraffe to the ground giggling manically, which I have to admit is probably pretty entertaining for anyone BUT me. Sigh.
Starbright animals are meant to be chewed and teethed on, and are all handmade with quality materials (pre-washed 100% cotton fabric and stuffed using hypoallergenic polyfill) by Miss. Suzi herself so you can know and trust what is going into your babe's sweet little mouth.With a lot of baby toys on the market these days I often find myself questioning if I realllly should be giving it to my child. So many are cheap, painted, BPA filled plastic and I worry about what chemicals my kids may be ingesting without me even knowing.? Since it is pretty much impossible to keep toys out of your child's mouth at ALL times, why not start by giving your child only quality? Quality toys often cost a bit more (actually Starbright animals are really affordable), but really... when it comes to the safety of your child why not start replacing the plastic one toy at a time... starting withhhhhh....? This cute little guy:

?Starbright Baby now provides a few different options, aside from their wrap scrap and organic giraffes, they now have toddler sized giraffes, adorable zebras, rhinos, and crinkle squares, too! Fun! I totally think I should get a rhino for my little beanie on the way. I am just loving the Didymos Rhino. Sooo cute. Two of my loves mashed together wraps and sweet little baby toys. ?? Starbright Baby handmade teethers are a guaranteed crowd pleaser, and make the perfect little addition to any baby shower gift. I would seriously melt if someone went to the trouble of buying one of these sweeties for my little babe. Why not stock up on a few for stocking stuffers for Christmas while you are at it ;) Browse the Starbright Baby etsy shop and find your favorites... and like a certain chip brand says, "bet you can't *eat* just one". ;) haha.? You can even get one to match your... errrr your baby's woven wrap. Who cares if your shoes don't match your purse, or however that is supposed to go... your baby's awesome giraffe can match your equally awesome wrap ;) now that is stylin'. Check out our friend Tanya from Precious Earth and her Marley lovin' Babes (psst... drop Tanya a line if you are interested in adopting one of the giraffes that just wandered into her shop).
?Starbright baby sent us an adorable giraffe made from a striped green BB Slen wrap scrap (my fave colour BTW) and boy was I impressed. For months now I have seen Suzi's creations online and have drooled over their sweetness but had yet to see one in real life. My husband and I drove down to the mailbox to pick it up, after some confusion thinking it had been lost in the mail, I was relived to see that it was in fact there. I opened it immediately... waiting is definitely not one of my strong suits ;) I squealed at just how cute it really was. I knew my little bean would looooove it, and I was right. As soon as I got it home she hugged it and began carrying it around, pushing it in her little shopping cart and tending to her new baby "gi-aff's" every need. Gi-aff now sleeps in bed beside her with his own blankie. This past weekend we even went to the fair and had to bring it with us, which was super cute.?
"DADDY! DADDY! GI-AFF!!!" *sigh* Love at first site.
? * Please note, I do not condone giving babies/toddlers suckers...?
some lovely person at the fair gave one to my daughter, which?
we promptly stole away to hide for us to consume later *
?
Like I mentioned, Starbright teethers are the perfect size for little hands and are built to last. Cupcake is getting her eye teeth and boy are they being stubborn. :( She is finding her baby gi-aff's head and legs awesome for chewing on.OK, that sounded a bit Silence of the Lambs-ish but you guys know what I mean... I hope. Starbright animals are sturdy, with just enough stuffing to help them keep their shape without making them rough and weapon like if baby decides to throw one at you. Not that YOUR baby would, right? With this giraffe I never have to worry that she might accidentally bite something off, swallow some gross liquid or that it will start making some terrible noise when its body is pushed.Yep, that's right, one of the best parts about these teethers are that they are silent. Can I get an amen, mamas??? What a perfect little lovey for your babe! Haha YAY for real moms creating products for real kids. I know that if I give Cupcake her giraffe to play with in the car that I won't want to throw it out the window five minutes into our trip. We both win! She has a little buddy to play with, and mama has a fairly silent car ride! Hey, I didn't say these teethers were MAGIC...they can't get rid of ALL the noise that your kids make but I can guarantee that they won't squeak, shriek, flash lights, or sing annoying songs. ;) Which equals awesome in my books.
So ... which one will you be bringing home?
?
Thanks again Starbright Baby!
