Customer Reviews
Nice gentle sound, not that irritating hollow plastic rattle!
I love these, they make a nice gentle shaking sound that only wood can provide...the plastic ones I have make this awful grating gravel in a plastic egg kind of sound that's way too sharp. These are great and I highly recommend them.
Big beats for tiny hands!
These are such great toys for my one year old! he loves to run around and shake them to make noise wherever he goes. They are great for counting to one=one shake and so on.
Great for Kids, Fun for Adults
These are perfect for my 10 month old, he loves to shake them and since they are pretty thick and durable wood I am sure they will survive his infant years and many years beyond. He is 18 pounds, 30" and can grab these well - not too big and not too heavy.
They are not 100% perfect, one of them is very quiet compared to the other (I suppose from different thickness in the wood). This might be useful to get different "tones" out of them. And I would not recommend them for someone playing music in a band because they are relatively quiet. However, the quiet aspect is wonderful for a child or someone wanting to practice without anoying everyone in the house.
They don't seem likely to break, which is a big plus for someone with kids. Also, they are very nice looking in person, natural wood, unpainted.
