Hand-Crafted Wood Barbell Rattle

Tuesday, July 1st, 2008

barbell rattle

Here’s a modern version of an oldie but goodie! The barbell rattle is also used as a teething toy by some babies, and is made by Turner Toys in Vermont (USA). This rattle is made of all natural maple wood pieces, sanded and molded to prevent splintering and stained with a non-toxic finish. Your baby will love to grasp and shake this toy, as it makes a little noise and moves back and forth. The wood pieces are smooth and hand crafted, ensuring they won’t break or fall off. This toy will give some teeth to whenever you might say, “enough with all the plastic crap!”

from Organic Gift Shop for $21.99
