Finally, someone did it! Teething Necklaces for Dads.(Giveaway)

My littlest little just recently turned 7 months old and wants to put everything in his mouth. Which for me has meant he either chews on the straps of the carrier, chews on my metal necklace or my least favorite, chews on quite a flamboyant rainbow-centric teether. And while I'm certainly not above rocking the rainbow, it doesn't particularly "set off" my outfit the way I'd like. 


So when these daddy inspired teething necklaces from Little Sunshine Boutique arrived in the mail I was absolutely thrilled. Finally I have some teethers that I can wear around and not get completely crazy looks from people when I have long since put my kiddo down but have totally forgotten to take it off.

 I want to touch base on a few of my favorite things about these outside of the fact that they look so great. 

The length on these necklaces is perfect. One of the biggest issues with the current ones we have is it sure seems like they were meant for momma. When she wears them they fall right to his mouth, when I wear them they just bonk off of his forehead the entire time. As you can see in the picture above these sit nice and low at the perfect height for him to play with them and also bring the to his face to chew on.  

The silicone beads used are really really light which I found to be nice in comparison to some other teething products that I've used especially other silicone necklaces. 

The breakaway clasp is  perfect in that it breaks away with relative ease but not so easy that my little guy unclasps it while playing with it. It's a nice tight snap and holds well. 

The string used dries nice and quick. A problem I've had with other forms of teethers in the past is that after drool effect that leaves my neck slimy and a ring around my shirt collar. For both drool and cleaning purposes it a pretty quick dry with a basic wipe off. 

Which brings me to my last point that the beads clean very easily. We have a heavy shedding dog in the house and like I would expect, the beads pick up dog hair every time it hits the ground. A quick rinse under the sinks faucet immediately removes any debris and gets us back to a happy little man with his new favorite toy.  
Now lets take a closer look at the items I've received. (Feel free and click on any product to go direct to that product on their site)

First is a super simple but very usable necklace. It has a silicone ring which is my sons favorite part about all of these. In fact I would actually not suggest getting one without it or some sort of a pendant attached. It's a great focal point got the kid to look for and grab onto if they have limited motor skills still. The ring is a nice rich baby/sky blue and a green rounded cube to lock it in place. I find that this one goes well with any brown, blue, purple, green and white shirts.


Next is a black and grey beaded necklace with larger black beads and a medium sized grey bead to both sides of a black silicone ring. It's very light weight to the point you will forget you're wearing it. This one works very well with black, grey, red and white shirts.

The next one is a red and black beaded necklace with large black beads and small red beads. I really like the look of this one however it does not have any sort of pendant so it is not as desirable for my little guy however the next product kind of solves that issue. This one goes will with red, black, grey, and white shirts. 
The last product is not actually a necklace but a carrier accessory. It is much smaller around than a necklace and fits very nicely around the strap of both of my SSC's (Ergo and Babyhawk). It has an assortment of colors to be able to match with many different carrier patterns without havinging the "rainbow effect". The black beads really help keep theme with the daddy necklaces while the colors allow for it to be transitioned back and forth between dad and mom. One of the coolest part about this one is that it has a detachable ring that I like to switch off to the above necklace to add a focal point and grab spot for my little. 

And last but not least just to show the genuineness of our love and use of these products here is a bunch of photos from around my home and outside of them in use by my little guy wife and myself over the past few days. I sincerely suggest checking out Little Sunshine Boutique to see the whole selection. And for any mommas reading this, Fathers Day is just around the corner.
