Abstract: An infant chew toy apparatus includes an elongate handle and a flange or other lateral member disposed on the handle. The flange extends laterally from the handle. A protrusion is disposed on the flange. The protrusion may comprise a nipple, and may be oriented directionally opposite of and parallel to the handle. The flange may be disposed on an end of the handle, with another flange disposed on the opposite handle end. The apparatus is designed to make it convenient for infants to grip, chew, and pick up the apparatus, and portions of it may be constructed of suitably durable plastic or other material for teething purposes, with other portions constructed of softer material.
