Winkel - Manhattan Toy

Bought one of these based on Mumsnet reviews and to be honest not that impressed. My daughter can only be described as orally fixated, absolutely everything goes in her mouth - except this teether! I can't understand why she doesn't like it as to me it looks interesting and feels nice. But she is the baby and so it is her opinion that counts.

This is an expensive toy to be ignored at the bottom of the toy box.

I like this, but I don't know that it's the best toy we own. My daughter is almost 6 months and this is easy for her to grab/hold, colourful, soft enough not to matter if she bashes her head with it and portable enough in a changing bag. On the down side, once you've got yoghurt on the inside cube part nothing will clean it but some fiddly brushing with an old toothbrush. I like the Winkel (even in spite of the silly name) but do feel 7/10 is fair.

This was okay, but not the best toy IMO. I bought it for DS when he was just starting to reach out for things. It was easy for him to grab, and he did enjoy chewing it, but he wasn't interested in it for that long.

It had a nasy plasticky taste/smell to it.

Advice on MN was that the Skwish would be better - and the advice was right. I'd definitely recommend that above the Winkel any day.

This was the first toy my DS played with. He loves it, shakes it, chews it. I am so pleased with it. DS can now play with other toys, I'm sure as a result of learning with this toy.

This is a fantastic toy that we bought at approx 4months. Our son is now 7 months and still uses it alot. Its very easy for them to hold on to at an early age and the colours are fascinating.
