Skwish Natural Rattle and Teether Toy

For over 30 years, the Skwish from Manhattan Toy has been a time-honored classic, instantly recognizable and an intriguing blend of ingenious design and developmental function. The geometrical shape and interconnecting wooden dowels have long piqued the curiosity of adults – imagine how it must appear to a baby as they begin to experience the world around them?

Skwish may not turn every baby into a mathematical genius, but every baby can joyfully benefit from its unique developmental features. Its natural finish and one-of-a-kind shape instantly capture baby's attention. The lightweight wooden dowels, smooth finish, and elastic ties make it easy for little hands to grab and hold. Babies will love "Skwishing" it down and watching it return to its original shape – Skwish is a perfect clutching toy for developing gross motor skills.

The Skwish produces a very pleasing rattle and allows baby to explore sound and learn cause and effect. The spatial and tactile elements have been shown to be helpful to those on the Autism spectrum. Skwish is carefully constructed of sustainable wood and features a smooth, un-dyed exterior surface.

As a MULTI-SENSORY WOODEN BABY RATTLE, the classic design encourages reaching and holding activity which are important for gross motor skill development. Safety-rated for newborns and up, the Natural Skwish is carefully constructed of sustainable wood and features a smooth, un-dyed exterior surface.

The Skwish is surprisingly lightweight, allowing little ones the ease of sliding the wooden pieces back and forth on dowels, producing a very pleasing rattle sound and allowing baby to explore sound and learn cause and effect from activity. This CAUSE AND EFFECT WOODEN TOY provides unique developmental features that every baby can joyfully benefit from.

The highly-regarded design of wood construction and elastic ties allow the unique rattle to flatten, or "squish", and always return to its original shape, making the Skwish a true DEVELOPMENTAL BABY TOY. The Skwish Natural Rattle has bountiful tactile qualities of smooth, yet perceptible wood grain texture as well as the spongy movement from the elastic bands, creating an HEIRLOOM QUALITY WOODEN TACTILE TOY.
