The size of the rattle was appropriate for a six month old in my opinion. Good size. Rain sound. Not too heavy. Probably safer and softer than the ones made about 40 years ago. But hopefully as enjoyable as children found them then. Have not seen the recipient with the rainmaker. But it seems to be OK for the needs of teething babies learning how to coordinate their movements. Could also be helpful when directing attention, distracting a fussy baby, or helping students and children discover the relationship between cause and effect. Great for listening games. Where's the sound? Of course someone would be the one shaking the hidden rainmaker. Good for home and daycare or preschool as a student or sibling or neighbor or relative gets to hide the rainmaker. Reasonably priced. Read more

The media could not be loaded. We got this rainmaker to help our 3.5-month-old start practicing her grasp—and she’s fascinated by the bright colors and gentle rain sound! She can’t hold it on her own yet, but loves watching and trying to reach for it. It’s well-made, smooth, and safe to explore with supervision. A perfect early sensory toy she’ll grow into over the next few months! Read more
This rattle is a great little toy for keeping baby entertained! It’s super cute, colorful, and grabs their attention right away. It is a bit on the heavier side, so younger babies might have a harder time holding it for long periods, but overall it’s well-made and fun to play with. A nice addition to our toy collection!

The media could not be loaded. My son seems to like it. He’s 6.5 months old and it keeps him entertained for a few minutes before having to move onto the next thing! I thought the price point was decent as it seems like it is good quality. The “rainfall” noise isn’t loud or annoying. It is a good size and easy for him to handle and play with on his own. Read more
I gave this to my new great niece for Christmas. Her parents loved it and of course everyone seems to love a wooden toy. Read more
This is a super cute toy and it’s the perfect size for my baby to hold onto and toss around. It keeps my baby entertained for a little while, but my only complaint is that the beads inside fall way too fast. My baby hasn’t figured out that she can flip over the toy fast so she gets frustrated that the noise and beads have stopped, which is why it’s my only complaint. Read more
My son plays with this daily. He drops it on the floor over and over again to make it roll to hear the sound. It seems safe and durable after multiple drops a day. He is 15 months old. It’s nice and big in his hands and the quality seems very very good. I do wish it was a tad longer so you would get more of that rain sound but overall it’s really a wonderful toy. My baby is very happy with it. Read more
