BIBS Colour Holiday Leaves Pacifier 2 Pack

The BIBS Colour Holiday Leaves Pacifier 2 Pack is a set of two natural rubber latex dummies in a Sage and Hunter Green colourway, offering babies a soft, familiar option for non-nutritive sucking (sucking for comfort rather than milk). This is the classic round-teat BIBS Colour dummy — the shape the brand was built on — designed to give a little one something soothing to settle with during quiet awake moments, settling and sleep time.

The round teat has a fuller, rounded tip and a narrower neck, a profile BIBS designs to resemble the shape and movement of a nipple during feeding. It's made from natural rubber latex, which is soft and highly elastic, so it flexes with your baby's sucking while standing up to strong suction. Because dummy acceptance is very individual, some babies take to a round teat straight away and others prefer a different shape — having two in a pack means you always have a clean spare on hand.

How it works

• Air-releasing valve: As your baby sucks, the valve releases air so the teat can compress and shape to the palate, which is part of what gives the natural rubber latex its soft, giving feel.
• Anti-irritation shield: The shield is curved to sit away from the skin, helping to minimise contact and reduce moisture build-up around the mouth.
• Ventilation holes: Three holes in the shield allow airflow against the skin for added comfort.

Materials and sizing

The shield is made from food-grade PP and the teat from natural rubber latex. BIBS states the dummy is free from BPA, PFAS and phthalates. The BIBS Colour range is offered in stage-based sizes — Size 1 from 0+ months and Size 2 from 6+ months — and the guidance is to start with the size that matches your baby's age, then move up as they grow. Ultimately your baby will let you know what feels comfortable.

Caring for your dummies

A little care keeps natural rubber latex in good condition:

1. Before first use, gently pull the teat in all directions and inspect it for any weakness or damage.
2. Sterilise by placing the dummy in boiling water for 5 minutes, then allow it to cool.
3. Because of the vent hole, water can get inside the teat — simply squeeze it gently to release the water.
4. Clean and sterilise before each use by scalding. Don't use cleaning products or a dishwasher, as these break down the teat.

Check the dummies regularly and replace them every 4–6 weeks, or at the first sign of damage. An enlarged or sticky teat is a sign it's ready to be replaced.

Best for

The BIBS Colour Holiday Leaves Pacifier 2 Pack is a good option if you:

• Are looking for a soft, natural rubber latex teat with a rounded profile
• Want a spare in the pack so there's always a clean dummy ready
• Like the idea of a colour-led design in the Sage and Hunter Green Holiday Leaves palette

It may not suit you if your baby has a known latex allergy or clearly prefers a firmer silicone teat or a different teat shape.

Safety information

Inspect the dummy carefully before every use and pull the teat in all directions; throw it away at the first sign of damage or weakness. The teat is made from natural rubber latex, which can cause an allergic reaction in some children, and may expand slightly and darken with use — don't use a dummy that has changed colour or shows irregularities. Only use dedicated soother holders tested to EN 12586, and never attach ribbons or cords, as your child could be strangled by them. Keep the dummy out of direct sunlight and away from heat, and don't leave it in sterilising solution longer than recommended, as this weakens the teat. Never dip the teat in sweet substances or medication. Always supervise your baby while they're using a soother. This dummy complies with European Standard EN 1400:2013+A2:2018.

Pandylane Pro Tip: Natural rubber latex softens and gives more than silicone, which some babies prefer — but it also wears faster, so keep an eye on the 4–6 week replacement window and swap it out sooner if the teat starts to feel sticky or looks enlarged.
