It's Day 3 of my 15 Days of Giveaways leading up to Ivy's first birthday. You can see all the giveaway posts here.

Our friend Amy Turn Sharp sent one of her lovely wooden toys as a gift when Ivy was a baby and I am delighted to share her shop Little Alouette with you. Each item is made by hand with the softest wood. And the rattles are filled with organic seed.

Ivy is on the go, as you know. So this is the best shot I could get, and I think it's awfully cute.

If you'd like to win a wooden toy, leave a comment below with your favorite item at Little Alouette. Open to residents of the US.

I'll choose one winner at random on the night of Ivy's birthday, September 15. Winner will be contacted via email (so please include it when you fill out the secure comment form) and I'll also announce all winners here by September 16.

I like the Maple Oval Handle Waldorf Style Wood Teether. :)

Mimi's Toes said...

I would choose the organic teether for Jack, since he is in that stage. I just adore Ivy's outfit. She is little miss busy bee. I love the shot with the sky in the background. Her little bow sticking up is so cute.

VanderbiltWife said...

I like the wooden teether key set. It's sweet and I think my baby girl would LOVE it (she's sure obsessed with my keys).

Jessie

Love the SAFARI set!

Celeste said...

I love that the Safari set can be both regular teethers and a set of animals for imaginative play. My favorite teether is probably the hippo, though I have a daughter named Gigi and am thus partial to the giraffe as well.

Kaycee said...

I like the Safari set and the T-Rex teether!

Great picture of Ivy! :)

Cute photo of Ivy!

Em said...

The key set is darling, as is your little girl.

I just read your other post about the clean the mess-two more appear cycle. Sigh. All I can say is that I know where you're coming from. At least we're not alone.

The Nunnallys said...

Mommy Mo said...

Dinosaur teething/pretend toy set is so cute!

Jenn @ Beautiful Calling said...

Love the Ohio Maple Safari set. We went to African Lion Safari last week and CHloe has talked of nothing else. At night she even thanks God for each of them. It would be the perfect set for her and my teething baby to share LOL

Mom of Three said...

She's getting so big - look at her all growing up in her big girl shoes. :-) Adorable little Ivy girl.

artisticmadre said...

Courtney said...

I relly love all the things so it was very hard to choose but i think my fave had to be the The Old School Maple Rotary Rattle Teether. These are beautiful and i think definitely fulfill baby's need to chew on random objects lol.

princess_bob said...

I love this one:

http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=27489622

mamaL said...

wow, that year went by fast! They're all beautiful, but I love the holey maple teether the best!

lizzykristine said...

The rectangular teether/rattle is nice. Looks like just the right size for small hands. :)

SarahHub said...

I love the T Rex Wood Teether. And I've always been disturbed by that song. If I recall correctly, isn't it about cutting a chicken's head off?

Kara said...

I'd love the organic Harper the Hippo for Posie. The only thing she will teeth on right now is an ice cube in a mesh feeder! :P kschroeder616 at gmail dot com

Dighti said...

Harper the Hippo Maple Wood Infant Baby Teether is my favorite :)

I would like to know what kind of seeds are in the rattles. Just because they are 'organic' doesn't mean they are harmless. You're friend might want to update her postings to be clear on that.

Apple (Malus domestica). Seeds contain cyanogenic glycosides; in most species, the amount found in a single fruit won't kill a person; but it is possible to ingest enough seeds to provide a fatal dose. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_poisonous_plants

Carrie said...

Ooh, my son would love either the giraffe teether or the T-Rex!!! :)

Adventures In Babywearing said...

Dighti, I believe she states they are flaxseeds and are sealed inside the wood.

Steph

Erin Leigh said...

Can't believe how fast it goes - mine is almost 9 months!
My favorite is "Hoppity Harry." LOVE wood toys! Thanks!

Mara said...

It has to be the Ellie the Elephant Maple Wood Zoo Teether!

Morgan said...

Wow, that is such a neat little toy! With this being our fourth we have so much stuff, but I always like to get a few special things for each baby. This would be perfect!

My favorite is the tree teether.

Everything my son can get his hands on will go in his mouth. These cute wood toys would be a much better option than a lot of the things he's put in there over the last several weeks. My favorite is the Harper Teething Rattle. And I know he'd love it too.

Kalee said...

Lol, I grew up speaking French (thanks to a French magnet school) and I was just singing some of the childhood songs yesterday, one that was the one I am guessing they names their store for. I have a thing for elephants, so I would go with the Ellie the Elephant teether. Beautiful.

Sarah said...

meganbhulsey said...

I LOVE the Calla B Butterfly. This would be so wonderful to have since Emily has just started teething.

Julie said...

The maple wood pyramid stacker toy

aunteegm@yahoo.com

This Military Mama said...

This would be beyond perfect for us right now.

I would love the Rattle Baby toy. I love that it just looks like one small piece of wood. Yet it's a rattle and a teether! I also like the Wee Squar Wood Bitter. Looks perfect for small and big mouths.

Also, how cool that they have The Wee Wood of the Month Subscription for teethers, blocks, rattles, and teething toys. I am so signing up for that with the next little one!

Sue said...

the tree teether : )

Amber Joy said...

I love the barnyard farm!
