Wooden Toys for Babies

When our children were babies, we learned that even the simplest toys could become part of everyday play. In this section, we share what we have learned about wooden toys for babies, from the newborn months through that busy first birthday.

You will find practical guidance on wooden teething toys, wooden baby gyms, and wooden sensory toys that encourage babies to look, reach, grasp, touch, and explore. We also cover when babies can start playing with wooden toys and how their interests can change throughout the first year.

Safety matters especially at this age. We pay close attention to whether toys are appropriate and safe for newborns, and we keep choking hazard awareness in mind as babies become more curious and start putting almost everything in their mouths.

We also look at toys through the everyday stages of infant development, without making complicated claims about what a toy should teach. Instead, we focus on what we have noticed while playing with our own children, including which types of play fit naturally as babies become more alert, mobile, and interested in the world around them.
