Haba Salto Clutching toy

I wanted to get some wooden toys for my 3-month old daughter instead of the standard plastic ones, mainly to avoid the whole BPA issue. We didn't want to spend a lot of money on them but did want quality. This toy, while being slightly more expensive than others, is a great investment. My daughter clutches the sides and gnaws on the round ring, while the little colorful wooden parts are fun for her to watch. It's her favorite toy (if a 3-month old has favorites). It's exactly as it appears in the picture. The wooden stick in the middle seems sturdy and doesn't appear to have any "give" in it -I worried it might break easily, but it has withstood my older two playing with it. A great investment!

A fun rattle, the little color "tubes" dangle and are very shakable and fun.

Our 8-month old daughter finally figured out how to rotate the central colored bars and put them in her mouth. She likes this toy, but not as much as Trinello or Kringelring.

Our little one liked this rattle when she was teething, and she liked to wave the beads around. We also received as gifts the Moby clutching toy and the Haba rattle with colored "beads" -that one was probably the best in catching her eye with color and movement and sound, and she liked chomping on that one as well as this one. (Thank you, friends + family, for the generous gifts!) This one got play as a stroller toy clipped to plastic rings too, and that was a good distraction. All in all, Haba toys are fantastic and very nice to have.

My baby LOVED this rattle, it was his favorite toy for a long time. Yesterday he threw it on our wood floors and the ring literally shattered, leaving all the little bars on the floor. I frequently let him play with this toy alone so I'm glad I happened to be standing near him when this toy broke because those bars are basically the definition of a choking hazard. I know better than to run wood toys through a dishwasher (I don't even have a dishwasher and to be honest I'm too lazy to wash all of his toys by hand plus germs build up immunity, am i right?) so I only have Haba to blame. I also purchased the caterpillar and noticed a hairline fracture in the ring of that as well, not as dangerous since it could only pinch him, but I'm still extremely disappointed in both products.
