All you need for this ingenious tip are a few clean washcloths and your freezer.
Next time your baby starts to grumble from teething pains, simply hand them the frozen washcloth to play with.As your baby gums down on the frozen washcloth, the coldness will numb his gums and provide instant relief from any teething pains. Chewing on the washcloth, even as it thaws, will ease discomfort in much the same way as a soft plastic teething toy.
Using the cold as a numbing agent, avoids the production and use of medicinal teething substances that most likely contain chemicals. It also avoids the environmental damage caused by the production, transportation and consumption of these products. By creating a homemade teether, you have avoided buying further plastic toys that will, at some point, probably end up sitting in landfill.
