Recommended for babes six months and up, these quirky rattles are easy to grip and brightly coloured to entice little ones. Zolo Cha Cha Barbell Rattles, $22, Kushies Baby.“Francis enjoyed playing with them for a good hour or so when they first arrived. I was worried they might be a bit big, but she didn’t seem to have any troubles. I really like the colours—they are visually appealing, something I wouldn’t mind strewn across the living room floor.”
Robert Hannah, dad of five-month-old Francis, Winnipeg
