So you're in the mall. Your baby has a teether and they drop it on the ground. What are you going to do now? You really only have one maybe two with you. You give them the clean teether they drop that one too. You don't want to give the baby the teether that?s been on the floor in the mall because ewe that's gross and all those germs. So you need to be prepared to clean your teether. So a couple different ways to do that. I like the unscented, alcohol free ones. This one happens to be flushable too which is great. So you're just going to take your wipe out and you're just going to wipe really well all the different parts of the toy and just make sure that you get all the parts, especially if it fell on the floor in the mall or somewhere where there's lots of people walking because you just never know what's on their shoes. Just wipe it off really really well before giving it back to baby. Once it's clean you can just give it back to the baby to play with. Another way to clean your baby's toys and some kind of antibacterial. I like the ones that are alcohol free. There aren't very many on them on the market but especially when you're thinking about the fact that this is going to go in baby's mouth you just want to try and find one that has no alcohol in it. I like this one because it's fairly natural. It's called germs zapper and this is a foam so you're going to just squirt out a little bit of foam into your hand and then take the toy and rub it all over the toy again making sure you get all the different parts. This one's nice because it kills bacterial for up to four hours. So nice and clean and then you can give it to baby and if you want to you can also wipe it off with your burp cloth or something like that but this is a great way to quick clean your toys that drop on the ground before you give them back to baby
