Description
An excellent, unusual 2 in 1 teether and bath toy in the shape of a dinosaur!
Handmade natural rubber Mammoth toy in brown, perfect for young babies.
Textured, natural and soft it makes a lovely chewy baby toy when teeth are coming through. In a strong colour, it is sure to be an instant hit with babies and young children.
Suitable as a bath toy, as there is no hole to let water in and make it go really yucky (I speak from experience...)
Easy to wash so can be played with outside or inside.
• No stuffing or chemicals are used in the toys
• Natural rubber used is 100% natural
• Biodegradeable
• A great alternative to plastic toys
• Suitable from birth
• An ideal and unique new baby gift
This toy grows with your baby - most teethers are redundant once your baby stops teething, but this 2 in 1 toy will be played with for years to come.

Important Information
Please note: since the rubber used is 100% natural and we do not use stuffing, the toys can change shape slightly if exposed to cold, and look slightly concave.
This is perfectly safe and normal shape sometimes returns once the rubber warms up again.

Best Years have been specialising in making toys for well over 10 years and were the first people to introduce knitted dinosaur toys to the world!
Green, Fair, Ethical
As a small company, Best Years pride themselves on their ethical sourcing and the progress they have made in reducing their use of plastics. They made a commitment back in 2019 that they would do more and since then they have made good progress in reducing their environmental impact. Best Year's dinosaurs are all now stuffed with recycled polyester. They no longer use individual packaging saving 1000s of single use poly bags. They have removed the kimble tags (small plastic things which allow products to be hung). All their sew-in labels and swing tags are now environmentally friendly.
Best Years is a small company, and they work with small producers all around the world. While they pride themselves on having toys made all over the world, they know who their producers are and they have visited them all. They value their partners and they like them. Small isn't the only answer to ethical and environmental questions but it is always a good start.
Best Years Say...
"We love toys. We love how they help imaginative play, and help cement friendships. We love how children create worlds around their toys and this is why we feel that toys should be as special as the children who play with them. Having young children ourselves the appeal of knitted and crochet toys was instant as it offered a great alternative to the ubiquitous soft toys found all over the high street."
Best Years now offer a wide selection of knitted dinosaur toys and have something suitable for everyone from babies to young children to dinosaur mad adults!
"We are an ethical company and ethical sourcing is at the core of all our products so we found a great factory to make our first knitted toys for us, and now we have hundreds, still working with the same people we met all those years ago."
This interest in ethical sourcing also led to a 10 year partnership with the Pebble fair trade cooperatives who hand make knitted and crochet toys in rural Bangladesh creating thousands of fairly paid and flexible jobs in the process. (Please see our toys by Pebblechild)
