How To Buy A Rattle For Your Baby

Rattle is a toy enjoyed by age group 0-1 yr old. They can play it themselves and thoroughly enjoy their own action when the rattle makes a tinkling sound. Rattle can be bought, gifted and even handed over if its durable. However, it shouldn't be bought very randomly. There are some points to be considered before you buy this small toy. Only thing you can be sure of is that the baby is going to love the gift. Lets take a look as to which things you need to consider-

 
When purchasing a rattle, consider the age of your baby. Newborns are sensitive to sounds but cannot handle the rattles. For a newborn, avoid rattles with a harsh sound. Elder babies love those rattles which they can handle by themselves. They also experiment by throwing, banging and chewing them, thus the rattle should be safe in these respects.
 
Look for quality in this toy. Fisherprice, funskool and so on are recognized brands, They manufacture toys that are user specific and hence the pediatric safety measures are followed. In case of local rattles, check the quality, plastic, and be very sure that it does not open by any chance or does not have sharp edges.
 
As far as possible, buy rattles without any detachable parts, preferably single piece. Also make sure they are light weight and not too bulky.
 
Babies of any age are always likely to put the rattle in their mouth. Hence be sure they are safe. There are rattle-cum-teethers available in the market. They can be washed and are hygienic even if the baby puts it in the mouth.
 
If you are handing over used rattles or accepting the same, please check the condition. The beads or balls inside it should in no case come out, nor should the toy have any sharp or broken edge which might hurt the baby. Rattle is not a costly affair and can be purchased. If it is a local brand, make sure you replace it often.
