Rooba Boo the Bunny Natural Teething Toy Review + Giveaway
Teething is not fun for anyone and most parents see their babies and toddler suffer when their teeth cut through. It can be distressing for both. As parents, we want to do whatever we can to help alleviate the pain and discomfort and one good way to help is to provide a soothing teether for your little one to chew on.
Rooba is a British company that specialises in eco-friendly and non-toxic products that are also recyclable or biodegradable — good for your baby and good for the environment.
“There are many choices a parent has to help alleviate the pain. With three children of our own and having looked closely at the vast array of options out there many are potentially unsafe, toxic or unfriendly to the environment. We ensure everything we do is safe for your baby, helps them with their pain while minimising the effects on our beautiful planet.”
— Founders of Rooba
Rooba’s first product is Boo the Bunny Natural Teething Toy which is manufactured in Malaysia from sustainably sourced natural rubber. It’s strong, safe and non-toxic. The teether is ergonomically shaped, a good size for babies and toddlers and has a small textured grab handle, making it easy for little hands to grab and hold. Boo’s big ears are perfect for reaching the painful back teeth when they come through and the different textures on the toy are ideal for sore gums.
Unlike many teethers on the market, Boo the Bunny is flexible and comfortably soft which must be nice for little baby gums to chew on. I’m happy that it’s all natural and just made from sap from rubber trees. The biodegradable factor is important to me too as I’m actively trying to reduce our waste. (There’s a small amount of plastic on the packaging that I would love to see phased out, when possible, too.)
Boo the Bunny can be sterilised or just washed in soapy water, then rinsed. You can chill the teether in the fridge to make it extra soothing but it’s not suitable for the freezer.
Next up for Rooba will be a gorgeous smelling cheek balm to help soothe away the teething pains — that sounds amazing too! I look forward to seeing Rooba’s future developments — they’ve made a great start with Boo the Bunny!

Teething rings maybe cooled in the fridge, teething gels or granules and nurofen if needed for pain
When Megan was teething we tried teething gel, calpol etc and she was still screaming the house down, I have her a top top and within two minutes she was sat on the sofa giggling, I’m hoping it will work with Millie too, she’s 13 months and only has three front teeth so hasn’t been to bad, I’m dreading the back and fang ones coming through xxx
Keep things cool via the freezer – really helps soothe
A cold washcloth, spoon or chilled teething ring is very soothing on a baby’s gums.
just lots of things to chew on
Teething ring which can be cooled in fridge, is what I have found to be most effective for easing little ones sore gums when teething. Above teether is new to me. Would love to win prize, as could gift to new family addition :- Due later this year.

let them chew on teething rings and make them cool and use bonjela for thier toothy pegs x
make some natural ice lollies that a non weaning baby can have, it can cause immense relief for the child
Would love this prize for my adorable 7 month old granddaughter. She’s just started teething and really doesn’t like it!

Use your clean finger to rub babies gums ?
When I was a baby my Mum always kept a stainless steel teaspoon in the fridge and gave it to me to chew on when I was teething, she also made little ice lollies from 100% fruite juice and gave them to me to chew on as well. When my own Daughter was teething we had a plastic teether and she didn’t like it so I tried the teaspoon and the lollies as well as tootle pegs which were a hard biscuit, for her to gum on as well as calpol and bonjela and of course a little bit of ice cream too.
A finger of cucumber or raw carrot from the fridge is good to gnaw on and soothe gums
Cooling a teething ring always is very helpful and seems to do the trick
putting a teething ring in the fridge seems to do the trick for my little one :)
babies can chew on everything – however, try to keep stuffed animals away from them as they are too fluffy
My little one is almost 2 months so though I don’t have any good tips myself yet, I’m reading up on all these to help prepare me!
I put teething rings in the fridge to make them cool
Frozen muslin and plenty of cold teething rings
Lots of things to chew and lots of things to distract attention from a sore mouth such as pretty lights.

I used to use a cold carrot with my son, it always helped :)
I swear by teething granules and cooling (not freezing) a teether in the freezer for 30mins-1hr

Have a spare Sophie le Girrafe in your changing bag so you don’t get caught without it
My baby is currently teething and nothing seems to be working! I’ve tried teething gel, powder, calpol, bickie pegs etc. This teething toy looks interesting though, think I’ll have to invest in one :)
