I was hesitant about these because the length but they are so flexible and my 9 month old and his cousin (10 month) LOVE THEM. They chew them forever and even do that little singing you do when you鈥檙e into something :) DEFINITELY worth the buy. One thing I would say is I wish there was a way to clip them to baby because I鈥檝e lost a few so I鈥檒l probably buy another pack!
