It made sense to me. I spend a lot of time digging through my diaper bag or purse trying to find something to give O to chew on, usually asking myself some version of, "Did I put this in the side pocket because it had been rolling around the floor of the LIRR train, or is this the clean one?"
Positives:
- It is firm, yet easily bendable and twistable- perfect for little tiny teeth.
- As long as I remember to put it on, it's convenient!
- It's perfect for when O is trying to gnaw on my fingers because it's right there to distract him.
- It comes in a bunch of colors, so you can coordinate like it's real jewelry. It is not obviously a teething toy.
- It's totally "green", and it's won awards for safety & eco-consciousness.
- When it's time, the maker, Roundhouse, will pay for me to ship it back to them, and they will recycle it into new products.
Negatives:
- It is not breathable. With the crazy heat this week, it got a little sweaty under the bracelet.
- It is a chunky piece of jewelry, which is usually not my thing, but most of the colors are subtle and the design is simple.
- At $13, it's not cheap.
Also, I love the description of the name. Hop-la (pronounced "oh plah") in French means "Here you go".

Would you wear it?
What a neat idea! I'd seen the teething mama necklaces, but Spencer yanks everything so that never would have worked. This would have been great.
ReplyDeleteI would have worn something like that. Thankfully we are past the teething stage. I miss the sweet baby stage but I don't teething! :)
ReplyDeleteOooooh the blue version has a flock of birds on it! I would absolutely wear one. But my trouble isn't finding stuff for Caroline to chew on, it's Caroline dropping stuff all the time.
