Solid Maple, Sanded Smooth

Each elephant is cut from rock hard maple and sanded satin smooth with no finish applied. The wood is naturally non-splintering, so it stands up to drops, chewing, and years of play without flaking or cracking.

How to Choose a Wooden Grasping and Teething Toy

Not every wood toy is built the same, so here is what actually matters when you compare them.

  1. Check the wood type: Hardwoods like maple resist splintering far better than softer woods, which matters once a baby starts gnawing on an edge.
  2. Look at the finish: Toys left natural and unfinished, or finished only with food safe oil, avoid introducing chemicals to a baby's mouth.
  3. Consider the teething material: Food grade silicone beads add a softer surface to bite and can be chilled for extra gum relief, which plain wood cannot offer.
  4. Match the size to your baby's stage: A smaller toy with an easy grasp hole works best for newborns and young infants who are still developing hand strength.
  5. Decide if personalization matters to you: A single engraved word can turn a toy into a keepsake, which is worth considering if you are buying this as a gift.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this toy safe for newborns?

Yes, it is listed for ages 0 and up and is CPSC compliant. The lightweight maple design and open grasping hole are sized for small newborn hands.

Can I put the teething beads in the freezer?

Yes, the silicone beads hold cold well, so a couple of hours in the freezer can help soothe sore gums during teething.

Will the wood splinter if my baby chews on it?

No, the toy is made from hard maple, which resists splintering, and it is sanded satin smooth with no rough edges.

Can I choose the bead colors?

Yes, just let us know your preferred color combination in the notes box when you order, such as Confetti, Mountain, Bannor, or Riverbed.

How does personalization work?

You can add a single engraved word to the toy at checkout. If you want two words, you will need to purchase an extra personalization add on separately.

What is your shipping and return policy?

Orders ship from our US warehouse, with free shipping on orders over $100, and we accept returns within 30 days. Our human customer support team is happy to help if you have any questions.
