Freddie the Firefly is an excellent toy, a lot of entertainment in one small little guy! My son is currently almost 6 months old, and he has had it since he was about 2 months. It is his favorite toy! The teething berry that sits in the small pocket is wonderful, as my son started teething very early on. The little mirror on the wing is also perfect for babies around 2-3 months when they really start noticing their reflections. The toy has a squeaky wing, that my son loves to squeeze now. It is an excellent distractor when you are out shopping/strolling with your little one, as you can stick it on to the bar of any car seat or stroller canopy you have.

Definitely a must buy for any new parent.

This has been my daughter’s favorite toy since we got it for her at about two months old. The colors are really fun on the front, then the back of the wings are black and white. It has a squeaker on one wing, which now cracks her up. The wings crinkle and there are little teething rings attached to the bottom by a short elastic band. This toy has entertained my daughter for hours, and there aren’t any signs of her losing interest even now at seven months. In my mind a must-have.

It is a fun toy but the head started coming off within only a week of owning. I had to sew it back on and so far it has been fine. My 6 month old enjoys chewing on this toy.

I ordered Freddy the Firefly, Jacques the Peacock & Stretch the Giraffe for my grandson who will be born in May 08.

All 3 toys are similar: they all have embroidered eyes, a bell or rattle inside them and one puffy squeaker or squeaker foot and crinkly areas, soft textures, a clasp hook at the top that is stiff plastic and bright colors.

Freddy has rings on his tail and a nubby red raspberry hanging from a green string off his right wing that appears to be a teether. He also has a small mirror on his right wing that reflects, but distorts shapes.

His body jingles when shaken. His squeaker is a puffy ball on his left lower wing. His backside has black/white polka dots and b/w wavy lines.

Based on the pics of babies holding the toy, I though Freddy would be alot bigger. He is a medium sized toy about the size of paperbook book.

I'm satisfied with the toy, but will be buying other textured toys for a variety of stimuli and sensations for the baby to enjoy.

My wife and I purchased this in anticipation of our first child. Unfortunately she had a miscarriage. But over time we became so attached to Freddie the Firefly that we decided not to have kids. He’s very cute, cuddly, and we can just imagine him talking, growing up, going to school, and one day having kids of his own. We cut a hole for his mouth (comes with a line so it’s easy to cut), and we feed him different baby foods. At the end of the week, we just throw him in the washer.
