Piro is great. A very sturdy toy, and a very cute clown. I’m reassured that it passed German quality control as being nontoxic, because my daughter has diligently chewed on it, and undoubtedly consumed some of the paint.
Have you noticed the recent press about lead in the vinyl that the US testing agents feel is “safe” for our kids? Really? Lead is safe? Oh well, that is why I avoid Chinese and American toys now. European standards are much more strict.
Anyway, a great, bendy little clown. Thumbs up from this dad.

I discovered Haba toys while shopping in our local Natural Grocery store and decided to search online since the selection there was limited.
When I first saw this toy, I thought there may be a potential for pinching to occur as the baby played, but eventually decided to trust that the toy maker knew what they were doing and bought it from one of Amazon’s sellers. I have tried to pinch myself with this toy (I know, may seem silly) before giving it to my son and it is almost impossible. What little pinching that may happen is not painful in the slightest. This is due to the toy’s construction: it is made from individual beads strung on a cord or rope of some kind- ingenious!
My son is four and a half months old, and while the toy may be a little difficult for him to grab as of yet(good, IMHO because he gets more practice!), he absolutely loves the bright colors and most of all, the face on the clown. The clicking noise the toy makes as it moves back and forth is also very interesting to my baby and sometimes I even find it soothing to click during “quiet time”. I am extremely happy with this toy and feel at ease knowing there is NO plastic on it and the paints are all water based and non toxic. Even though the toy is made from hardwood, he really loves to chew on it (Who needs those soft rubbery teethers??!)
Some may think the price is a bit high, but I do not agree. If you look at comparable toys in your local big-box store, the price difference really isn’t that much and you are getting a lot higher quality. This is truly an heirloom toy and worth it.

We were frightened and educated by the recent toy issues. We discovered these toys made by Haba and feel in love with them. We ordered sight unseen 4 different baby toys from Haba and this little guy was the first my 7 month old reached for. He is so darn cute- you just can’t find toys like this at the big baby chain stores.
When he bends the wood makes a soft satisfying clanky sound from the wood. He holds his shape with the tension on 2 bungee style cords you don’t see so he can stand up straight on his own. He is also top heavy so when you bend him he will fall over. By watching my daughter I’ve come to the conclusion he is very nice to munch on, insert here contented coos as he is nibbled on. Happily, he is bigger than I thought he’d be and the perfect handful for baby.
These Haba products are what I would imagine the old fashioned Santa and his elves would have given away. They are extremely well crafted and the simple details have made them instantly cherished by our family.

Ok. At first I regretted how much money I had spent on this toy. I mean it is a teether and it is small. The reason I bought it is because my 6 month old grabbed it and would not let it go. This toy is an award winner. It is also beautiful. I could see it on my son’s shelf as he grows older. None of those plastic toys will be as attractive as this one is. Wooden toys are great teethers and this toy is worth the money. My baby like it a lot.

This is another great HABA toy!! It is colorful which makes it interesting. It is easy for young babies to hold. Even now that my son is 10 months old he reaches for this to chew on. It’s a fun teether.
