Sophie the Giraffe

For my 8th month birthday, Mummy bought me a very nice looking teether called Sophie the Giraffe. Apparently Sophie the Giraffe has been a favorite teething toy in France for more than 40 years. This rubber teething toy requires 14 manual steps to take her through to completion - all preformed by hand. For a high production toy, it's quite amazing that this little giraffe is still handmade in the French Alps, just as she has been since 1961. With her natural rubber and non-toxic, food grade paint, Sophie the Giraffe has been safely cuddled for over 40 years! She truly is a French national treasure, stealing the hearts of parents and babies around the globe. Thank you Mummy!
