Woo! It's "Give Handmade" week here on the Notes. F&F is stocked with oodles of handmade items made by talented designers + craftspeople. Today? Wood baby toys by Earnest Effort (pictures above left) and Little Alouette (above right).

It's no secret that babies like to put stuff in their mouths. Skip the plastic + piercing noises and go for wood. All natural!

The teething rattles by Earnest Efforts make a gentle noise + are available in variety of woods. My 5 month old's favorite? Walnut.

Little Alouette makes the most delightful wood teethers, available in 3 shapes, made of maple. Owen's pick? The Waldorf Handle Teether.
