GUMIGEM New Bubba Bag - £19.95
Unique Selling Points:
Babies love things they are now allowed, we have created as realistic as possible items (within the safety guidelines) in a little bag so they can be just like mum. This toy doubles as one of babies favourite games, putting things in and out of things, the neoprene (washable) bag is designed to sit open, so babies can take the items in and out with ease. Plus all items are perfect for breaking in new emerging teeth as they are made of soft, flexible silicone.

The Bubba Bag from Gumigem is a great idea - anyone with a toddler will know that at some point your little one will try to empty your handbag - and not just once, continuously. You can have as many toys on hand as you like but children always seem to gravitate towards a handbag! Gumigem, primarily known for their teething jewellery have created their own, child friendly handbag and contents for children. It's available in just blue at the moment and is filled with handbag essentials such as keys, mobile phone, credit card and purse. All can be used from birth, although in reality I think your little one will be a few months before they show any interest. The keys however, are recommended from 10 months. The bag is made from neoprene and handily sits open so your little one can empty and fill the bag to their heart's content. I like this product - I really do. The silicone teething items are very well made and very cute. The bag is very functional - my one niggle is that the seams don't quite match up but in the whole scale of things this is tiny! At £19.99 RRP it is not a cheap toy but it not only offers your little one relief from teething but it saves your handbag belongings....in theory!

Gumigem Bubba Bag £19.99. This has been a big hit with my daughter, she loves to carry the neoprene bag around with her forbidden items! The bag contains a little mobile phone, a credit card, a set of keys and a little purse... Sounds great doesn't it but they are all chewable, made from soft chewable silicone. I would recommend this to any grizzly babies/toddlers. Simple but effective we really love them

It really is a super idea but a little disappointing. The market they are aiming at is split. The toys, except the car keys are suitable from birth, and as a teething aid they are a good idea, but at that age they have no concept of mobile phones etc. My daughter is now 17 months old and loves mobile phones, purses and handbags but she likes to push buttons, undo zips and this is where it was disappointing. The bag is nice, although other colours would be nice, but I'm not sure how long it would last due to the poor stitching.
