Cute Crochet Baby Rattle Ideas
Babies need all kinds of sensory stimuli. That’s why there are so many toys that play music, squeak, or have little buttons to make individual sounds. Of course sounds are not the only stimuli, as these toys can be soft, squishy, furry, or the opposite – plastic and hard.
By playing with these toys baby can learn more about the world around him or her. If you are a crafter, you can easily make a beautiful toy by yourself. This can be a brilliant idea for a baby shower gift, for example. Explore our recommendations for crochet baby rattles and get inspired! These projects use basic amigurumi and working around wooden circle. Search for links to free patterns under the pictures below.
