- The following cot rail teether is BPA, phthalate, pvc and halogene free, non-toxic and not made in China, made in Australia - www.muffetskidz.com.au and it is a proper teether with ridges for soothing gums, and one long length so there are no joins that germs can get stuck in.

- I recently bought the Bright Starts : "Tag Along Friends" and the "Teether Book." I was wondering if these are Bisphenol-A free and also lead free as well as these products are made in China which scares me in the first place because of all the recalls. Any info would be peace of mind for me. Thanks
