My 6 month old loves her new rattle. Great item, very sturdy, colorful and baby proof. Made of thick plastics, but not too heavy for baby to shake and shake in delight. Bumpy and rigid edges make teething baby satisfied as well.
This toy is good for babies first starting to reach and grasp. It doesn't keep an 8-month old busy for long, so I would recommend it for 3-6 month olds.
