The giraffe you just gotta have

This little guy — well, girl — is hardly new, but for brand new mothers, she’s a must-have.

Sophie the Giraffe is a time-tested teething toy developed nearly 50 years ago. Often baby’s first toy, this cheerful, adorable giraffe does more than just help a teething baby make it through the day. It also stimulates all five senses: the contrasting spots on the body are for the eyes; the squeaker is for the ears; the soft feel for touch; and, as it’s made from 100 percent natural rubber from the Hevea tree, it has a unique scent for the nose.
