Silicone teething necklaces are a major trend right now. From displays at major retailers like Target to online specialty shops, these silicone teething necklaces came out of nowhere and took the baby product market by storm. In addition to being totally adorable, they come with a host of benefits to boot. Here are our favorite five perks to using teething jewelry. 1. Safe Unlike teething necklaces made from stones, which are also popular right now, silicone teething necklaces offer unmatched safety. No small pieces and completely hypoallergenic, these non-toxic silicone parts won’t hold onto bacteria. 2. Easy to Clean Just pop your silicone teething necklace in the top shelf of your dishwasher and press start. It’s that easy. 3. Increased Awareness Since mom wears the necklace, not baby, your child will be making eye contact with mom while using the teether. It encourages appropriate grabbing and gnawing, and keeps the risk of strangulation low since the cord is never around baby’s neck. 4. Versatile A silicone teething necklace can go into the refrigerator prior to being worn. This allows the soft silicone to chill, making it extra soothing for baby’s aching gums. 5. Fashionable Chances are – you don’t want to wear a traditional teething ring as a bracelet. But a QALO silicone teething necklace is something that you may want to wear. Available in attractive colors, patterns, and shapes, this jewelry is the definition of form meeting function. Have we convinced you to give these jewels a try?
