That aside, my three month old daughter LOVES this rattle! It's the first toy she's had yet that she's actually become attached to. The size is a perfect fit for her little hands, and in the first few days she's had it her dexterity has noticeably improved. Of course it goes right into her mouth, so I keep it clean and honestly I feel good about her having a natural wooden toy that she can gum on.
Another reviewer mentioned that the wood is rough, and I had the same reaction when I first opened it, but I decided that if my daughter liked it I could always take some sandpaper to it. In the end, that wasn't necessary. After washing it and leaving it to dry thoroughly, I simply rubbed some cooking oil into it and the texture is lovely now. Still nice and tactile, feels like natural wood as it should, but it's not dry and coarse as it was at first.My daughter likes this. It is smaller than I expected. It eases my mind to have her put this in her mouth over plastics.

Very nice product and love the natural wood. I expected it to be slightly larger though. But it's a good size for baby.This rattle is very light and small enough for my baby to comfortably hold it. She enjoys chewing on it and it doesn't get soaked through or splinter. My only complaint is that it's not noisey enough for a rattle.At first our son wasn't into it, but once he started teething, he loved it! It's a great size and we brought it around everywhere--a five star product! Unfortunately, the other day it broke apart. Granted, he was banging it on the table, but I think toys ought to be able to withstand that, since I would imagine a lot of 8-month olds will bang toys on the table. Well, next thing you know the toy has come apart and the little wooden balls could have easily slipped off into his mouth. Luckily they didn't, but I imagine it would have been a major choking hazard. Now it's in the trash. I'm just glad it happened in front of me so I could take it away quickly. Too bad.
