Bright Starts Teether, Assorted Colors, 3M 3 teethers

Bright Starts Teether, Assorted Colors, 3M 3 teethersI have an earlier version of this set--only the red square seems to be the same, but the changes to the other shapes are minimal.

This set of small teethers is good. They're easy for even a young infant to hold and offer good teething surfaces (especially the square--those corners!). They don't seem to hold the chill for very long after they come out of the refrigerator. But that's okay, because the cold seems to be less important for teething relief than the shape of the teether. And these have good shapes.

We have a whole bunch of this type of water-filled teether in the refrigerator, ready to go, for our eight-month-old. We did the same for our now-toddler when he was young. Please note that these teethers are best for front teeth. By the time your toddler is cutting molars, she'll need a harder teether to get relief--and it'll have the be shaped differently (with long "fingers") than these so it can reach the back teeth.

If you're looking for other sets of easily-manipulated cool teethers, try Infantino's Ocean Teethers or the flower teether from this Bright Starts set or any from this set. The favorite (unrefrigerated solid soft plastic) teether in my house, by far, is the Discovery Toys Super Yummy Teether.

Bottom line: A good basic set of cold teethers for an infant.
