This wooden rattle is a great gift for a new baby. Made from solid wood with a food safe finish. Little ones can enjoy the spinning parts and clicky noises! Rattles can be made of wood, plastic or cloth. Many of the rattles are brightly colored, have animal or flower shapes, and typically make sounds when shaken. These sounds can range from the dull sounds typical of wooden rattles to the jingling or bell type sounds that metal rattles make.
