Here’s why:

SIGHT: At the age of 3 months a baby’s eyesight is still limited and they can only make out stark contrasts. The dark and contrasting attention-catching spots all over Sophie the Giraffe’s body provide visual stimulation.

HEARING: Her squeaker keeps baby amused, stimulates hearing and then later, helps baby to understand the link between cause and effect.

TASTE: Sophie La Giraffe is made of 100% natural rubber and food paint, and is completely safe and natural to chew. Her soft texture and numerous chewable parts (ears, horns, legs) make her perfect for soothing baby’s sore gums when teething.

TOUCH: Touch is the first means baby has of communicating with the outside world. Sophie La Giraffe’s soft feel which warms to the touch is just like mummy’s skin, stimulating soothing physiological and emotional responses that soothe baby.

SMELL: The singular scent of natural rubber (from the Hevea tree) makes Sophie La Giraffe very special and easy for your child to identify amongst all his other toys.

EASY TO GRIP: Sophie La Giraffe’s shape and 18cm size are perfect for baby’s small hands. She is very light and her long legs and neck are easy for baby to grip, even from the earliest days.
