    Gift for my grandson at 3 months old. He is 5 months now & still loves it! It is well made & durable. I would buy again as a baby gift.

    I wasnt sure about this toy at first but my three month old loves it. The balled ends fit in his mouth for exploration and he can hold it very well. It keeps his attention better than other rattles he has.

    This is our sons favorite toy! Its beautifully designed and he was able to grasp onto it from an early age because of the thin strings.

    Love that it looks like home decor and not a bright flashy toy

    I love this thing. Baby likes to shake it and chew on it. Toddler likes to smoosh it. Win-win.

    Very intriguing for our grandson. He loves to smash it down to have it then pop back up. He is also fascinated by the beads that fall in opposing directions.

    My baby loves it, I love that it’s not plastic. I don’t like having a lot of stuff so I try to pick toys that he’ll use former than a month and hells definitely using it for awhile. It makes noise, easy to grab, easy to put in their mouth, durable, and it’s bendy so they can pull at it and squish it. His favorite toy, from the rest.

    I have twins, but I’m a Montessori mom at heart. I definitely subscribe to the ‘less is more’ philosophy. I don’t buy duplicate toys for my babies, because I think it’s excessive. This is the ONE toy that I’ve ever considered buying duplicates of. Both of my babies are so engaged with it. I love this toy so much. I *might* knock off half a star, only because this toy costs more because it’s wood-look. The non-wood-look version is about $6 cheaper. I was happy paying the extra for the wood look, but was disappointed to know that the darker beads were painted, rather than stained. This doesn’t take away from the functionality of the toy. Overall it looks and feels amazing and is incredibly engaging for my littles. This will be my new go-to baby gift

    Cute, simple, but effective infant toy. My son seems to be facinated with throwing it to the floor to hear the sounds it makes.

The Artful Skwish from Manhattan Toy is an artistic twist of a time-honored classic, instantly recognizable, 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 hand-held toy for developing gross motor skills. The wooden pieces slide back and forth along the dowels when shaken, producing a very pleasing rattle that 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 tri-colored exterior surface. Since 1978, Manhattan Toy has been making award-winning, high quality, educational toys for your baby, toddler, or kid. From infant toys and baby toys to sensory development toys, our goal is to provide the safest and best toys available. All of our products, from the newest concepts to our time-tested classics, are innovatively designed to inspire imaginative play.
