The rattler is delightful and ideal for newborns because it is non-toxic; however, the description next to the illlustration claimed "[...] Zubels [tje ratter safe for newborns and adorable] are created using fair trade practices. They are skillfully hand knit by Peruvian artisans paid a living wage."

Wjem tje rattler arrived, it was exactly as pictured, even cuter; however, the label said "made in the Phillippines". That is why I took off one star.

I bought this as part of my baby's Halloween costume (circus strongman) and ended up finding something oversized that worked better. I was going to sell it but my husband took it out of the packaging, turns out my baby still loves to shake this darn dumbbell around. It has smaller rattle pieces inside so it sounds a bit more like a rain-stick than other rattles we have, plus it is pretty funny to see him toting it around. I wouldn't buy it for just anyone, but as a gift for the fitness-inclined new parents it could be a hit.

Baby loves to look at himself in the mirror, and smack the drum to start the lights and music.  It definitely is one of his favorite toys.

This rattle makes gentle noise, catches baby's eye and can be grasped with both hands making it easier for baby to shove in her mouth.

This was so adorable!! Note that it is small-this is for newborns and up. It is definitely something that a baby can safely grasp and throw around without any damage. We LOVED it!

This is a great toy for newborn and up. You can change the height and angle of the toy and can easily be assembled and disassembled for travel.

I loved the first Newborn Rock n' Play sleeper I received for my eldest and after lending it around for friends and family I bought this one for my latest arrival. Every parent knows the pain of having to not only wake up in the middle of the night but also get up and get the baby out of the crib where with this you can just reach over and pull the tyke out. It rocks with their moment but if need be I put a slipper under one of the legs to keep it from doing so. This model came with a vibration feature ( my L.O. doesn't like it so I can't really say it's wonderful but just in case he did it was nice to have it there) and a little set of teething rings. A very nice baby shower gift for those who want something bright, cheery and functional.

Perfect for baby's little hands to grab on to! And just enough noise with the rattles to keep baby interested. My 6 month old loves this toy.

All of my kids love this new toy I bought for our twins. The rattle sound is very nice, not annoying in the least. I'll be back to buy this for baby gifts  in the future.

When my children were babies (now they are 10 and 4) this was their favorite first toy/rattle.  This rattle is so easy to grasp and clutch.  I haven't seen this sold in the stores for awhile, so I was glad to find it on Amazon.  I gave this to my friend for her baby shower and she liked it.

Gund Crawl with Me Turtle Animated Musical 11.5" Plush

This is one cute turtle. It's slow as a turtle, but that is perfect for the intended audience. The newborn, well maybe a few months to about a year will find a lot of joy with little feller. There is an on off switch and battery compartment under a Velcro and fabric flap on the turtle's belly. The battery compartment (3-AAA) is secured with a screw.

Turn on the turtle and touch the shell and off it goes. It starts talking crawling and making music. It talks in English and has no other language options. The head of the turtle is totally soft, the body and legs are hard plastic but covered in a very soft fabric skin. Touching the shell activates the reward message and stops the crawling. If not touched the turtle will encourage more play, but for the intended age it really is just a pleasant high pitched message to the baby.

Overall this is a very nice gift for the toddler set. They and their parents will have lots of fun with the turtle.

My son is 5 months old and simply LOVES these rattles. Just a tip, wear the socks OVER TOP of their normal socks/jumpers to help them stay on better. My little guy always plays with his feet when he sits in his bumbo seat which is what prompted me to purchase these. The wrist rattles are a treat and I almost wish they'd sell a wrist rattle "teether" because he certainly likes to nibble at the crinkle fabric. The fabric patterns are alluring and eye catching for baby and the rattle is loud enough to hold attention but subtle enough to not be obnoxious.
With a few girlfriends expecting babies very soon, I just found a new favorite staple to toss in their baby gift baskets.

When my 6 month old granddaughter opened this gift, she squealed with delight and smiled so big!
She loves it! It is just the perfect size.
She loves the rattle and the little teething rings
I always read the reviews before buying, and they were spot on!  This is a great toy.

The Baby Einstein Take Along Tues Musical Toy was bought for and mailed to my grandson.  This colorful toy has a nice tone and is a proper volume.  The caterpillar has nice sized colorful beads for the baby to play with and chew on.  The babies can push the colorful music note button and the music plays various baby songs while blinking.  I would recommend this for any babies, or parents/grandparents who want a fun infant safe toy for the babies.  I would recommend.  Great product.

This is a beautifully made rattle that my 5 month old has had since birth but just recently begun to take a real interest in. It really holds her attention for quite some time ( in baby terms that's a whopping 5 minutes)! There's just one little problem - the green wooden 'leaves' are quite heavy and when baby gets to transferring this from hand to mouth, as babies inevitably do, the leaves tend to wack her in the face & eyes.

Easy for the baby to grip, satisfying rattle sounds when baby waves it around, and the light reflects off the mirror inside the blue end, which is visually exciting. Also, you can easily attach to links to hang on the stroller or off the baby gym.
