5 out of 5 starsI love wooden teethers, I bought this for a friend that just named her baby girl after a bird, and I thought "she must have this!". I have not bought any for my own baby yet (due in 6 weeks) but I will. I was really tempted to keep it though! The shipping seemed to be on time it didn't take too too long but I found myself wondering if everything was okay. It could have been I was really excited for it.

little alouette & us
Little Alouette reinvented a way of thinking of natural toys. We breathed life back into the wooden teething industry by creating the first modern and fun shapes that the country had seen in a long time. Modern families want natural {old school} toys but they want them funky and gorgeous and safe. We do that at Little Alouette. We do it best.
Over a decade ago a handsome British boy and an Ohio lass met and fell madly in love at first site in a sleepy university town. The boy was a classically trained master carpenter and the girl a writer with a bit of wanderlust.
They worked together creatively through the years on many projects involving woodworking as they restored and remodeled homes together. The boy taught his love about trees on their land in the country and how to use power tools and the girl read poems to him while they worked. They started a sweet family & began creating wooden toys for them.
They decided to share these wee wooden toys with the world and Little Alouette, LLC was born over hot steaming mugs of cocoa in during a cold cold winter.

//HOW DO I CARE FOR THIS SPECIAL TOY?//
Each toy comes with a gorgeous wee wood care guide!
It will give you information on how to keep that toy ready for future generations.
I wanted to share a few tips with you though::
If your toy seems to dull and become a bit rough with drool and chomping- just take a fine grit sanding pad and bring it back to life. It is that simple. Also- you can use any organic flax seed oil to finish or yr own beeswax! Follow the directions {simple} on the care card and this toy will be around forever! xo
