Megan has started to grab my hair and everything that she can reach. She gets really frustated with an object is too far for her tiny hands to grab. Ok. Time for mummy to make her a new toy!
Was at the library and read that toys that make sounds when they are shaken are good for the development of kids. It makes them understand simple concepts like cause and effect. I shake this, it will make a sound. Nice! Megan gonna learn this concept!
Rattle Rattle! Yup I spent a morning patiently sewing this for the now not so little, little one.
First and foremost, like all toys for babies, prewash all materials because everything they hold goes into their mouths. These colorful felt are the same ones leftover from the animal chart.... Daiso felt last a long way!!! Mix and match the colors and sew them up with strong tread since kids these days are pretty strong and tend to tear everything apart!!
Stuff the rattle with foam and two bells and stitch up the gap. TADA! A simple little rattle rattle for my Megan is completed... Love it! The size is just nice for her tiny hand and not too heavy.
Now that Megan has her rattle rattle.... I shall see how she applies her new found knowledge of cause and effect (say next week!). Megan drinks milk slowly, mummy will have late lunch.... Megan drinks faster, mummy eats on time! Hahaha.... cause and effect!!!! My life shall get better soooooonnn...
