What our experts think
We love that this toy is different from your typical rattle – it was certainly more appealing to our little testers. Babies enjoyed shaking the rattle and seeing what happened, and they were fascinated by the glowing light which provides sensory stimulation. This encourages babies to shake the rattle more; developing their hand-eye coordination, hand and arm strength (known as fine and gross motor control). Learning the link between shaking the rattle and the sound/light it creates also develops their logical thinking skills, through cause and effect. Younger babies weren’t able to hold the rattle for themselves, but still really enjoyed watching an adult shaking it. The inclusion of the teether is a lovely feature.
