Teething Mitt - Lion

The Lion Teething Mitten slips onto a baby's hand so the teether is always where their mouth already goes. Soft cotton mitt with a food-grade silicone teether sewn onto the back of the hand — for the months when a baby has not figured out how to hold a teether but has figured out how to chew on their own fist.

What it does. Most teethers solve a problem the baby can solve themselves: pick it up, put it in mouth. The teething mitt solves the months before that's true. From around 8-12 weeks, babies suck on their hands constantly.

The cotton glove keeps the silicone close to the hand without strapping anything to the wrist tight enough to cut off circulation. Adjustable velcro closure means you can size it to your specific baby. The teether portion is on the back of the hand, where babies most often chew.

Material and safety. Glove: 100% breathable cotton. Teether portion: one piece of food-grade silicone (FDA standards). Free of BPA, PVC, phthalates, lead, and cadmium. Exceeds CPSC and CPSIA requirements. Velcro is medical-grade and won't catch on baby skin. Independently tested before every production run.

How to use it. Open the velcro, slide baby's hand in, close the velcro snug but not tight. The thumb is exposed (mitt covers fingers + palm back, leaving thumb free) so baby can still grip a bottle or a pacifier clip without the mitt getting in the way.

Who it's for. Babies 2-6 months — the pre-grip teething window. Around 6 months when babies can reliably hold a teether on their own, you'll transition to our single teethers or ring sets.

Care. Glove is machine washable, gentle cycle. Air dry the silicone portion (don't put the mitt in the dryer — the silicone can warp).

The design. Lion is part of the Wild Teether design family. Pair with the matching Wild Teether single, teething charms, or development bundle for a fully coordinated design across the teething stage.

Gifting. The teething mitt is the unsung hero of baby shower gifts — it solves a problem most first-time parents don't know they're going to have, which is part of why it's so well-received. Pair with a matching teether for a gift.

Designed in Canada. Loulou Lollipop has been designing teething products in Vancouver since 2014. The Teething Mitt was developed after a parent on the team kept finding her four-month-old chewing through cotton swaddles trying to get to her hands.

A note on sleep. The teething mitt is not appropriate for sleep. Always remove the mitt during naps and overnight sleep, regardless of whether baby is fussing about teething.

For Ages: 4 months and up
