Unfinished Oval Bead Rattle

Unfinished Oval Bead RattleNot only does she love the sound the rattle makes, she likes to chew on it. Which is okay by me since it is untreated wood and not glazed or painted. She has taken the paint off her wood blocks from scraping her teeth, I had to take those away for now. At 9 months old this rattle is still a favorite. I bought 2 to give away as gifts and may need to buy 2 more. We did not have a problem with wood splinters like some of the other reviewers, but a light sanding on rough spots would fix that.

I was so excited to find this rattle (along with the similar version w/ a bell inside) because it's all natural (no paints) and MADE IN THE USA (hard to find anything NOT made in China these days). While it appeared just as the picture displayed, it was a big rough and my child ended up scratching himself w/ the non-smooth edges. For babies that put everything in their mouths, I'd hope the product would be smooth (e.g., sanded down more). Unfortunately, it's not the case. So, I'd say this product checks the box for being natural and made in the usa...but could be improved to be more "baby friendly."
