- soft, squeezable and stylish rattles
Rattle AND hum. That sounds like a challenge indeed. I can barely get the rattling right – well, you will insist on giving us babies ridiculously large and difficult toys to rattle, won’t you?
Imagine, then, how relieved I was to be handed a Maileg rattle. Soft and squeezable, the rattles are a perfect size for little hands. I can shake and squeeze it and the little bell that rattles around makes a lovely, melodic sound (perfect to hum along too). More like a doll with added rattling features, I love the beautiful Africa and her handsome beau, the Pesky Pirate. But all the characters are gorgeous and follow simple and stylish Scandinavian design principles. It was hard choosing just which one to grab onto first. Oh, and did I mention that they are organic too? Mummy loved that.
That’s the rattling sorted. Now I need to work on my humming …
What Moi says:
Actually when it comes to rattling, humming, gurgling and giggling, very little encouragement is needed.
