Babies love colourful toys that make sounds and are easy to pick up and put into their mouth. Rattles are generally among the first toys that a baby ever plays with. And the more action it provides, the better! Aside from the entertainment value, a well-chosen baby rattle can help with baby’s development. Some rattles are equipped with a teething ring, so the toy helps to relive the pain. When choosing a rattle, consider the age of your baby, material, design, and whether the rattle is easy to wash.
