Haba Kringelring Clutching Toy

The rings of Saturn make it the most attractive and recognizable of the planets. But contrary to their appearance, they aren’t solid (is it just us, or do they look like they’d be fun to stand on?). Instead, they’re composed of billions of particles made of ice and dust. So they’re probably best experienced at a distance.

On the other hand, the HABA Kringelring baby teething toy looks great on the screen, but you should see it up close! This lovely wooden baby toy consists of multiple rainbow-hued pieces threaded on sturdy elastic, so your baby can stretch and bend it. Two more bright-blue rings are threaded on the main teething ring, and they rattle when your baby shakes them.

The bright colors of the Kringelring teething toy are enchanting to babies, who practice tracking, grasping, and cause-and-effect as they clutch and mouth and shake and rattle the Kringlering. It’s surprisingly light for a wooden toy as well, which makes it easier for babies to grip. The HABA Kringelring is finished with non-toxic, water-based lacquers, painted on beech and maple, so it’s both sturdy and safe for kids to gnaw. And because the Kringelring is so small and light, it’s a great travel toy – attach it to a pacifier chain and take it along in the stroller or car seat! Made in Germany; for ages 6 months and up.
