Tullo’s Retro Style Rattles

A rattle making intriguing sounds is one of the most popular first baby gifts. This timeless toy effectively involves stimulating a young child's senses - touch, sight, hearing.

Tullo rattles are lightweight and created in such a way so as to make a baby easily catch, hold and shake them. As a result, while playing, a baby will be able to learn manual skills and develop his or her so-called fine motor skills.

Among other Tullo products, you may find high-contrast toys. The white and black rattles are adapted to your baby's developing eyesight. By shaking the toy in front of your baby or moving it from side to side, you will support your baby's evolving eyesight and widen his or her field of vision.

In addition, Tullo rattles have a unique retro-style design.

Rattles and Mobile Hanging Rattles - Tullo’s High-Contrast Toys for Infants

A newborn baby's eyesight is undeveloped - in the prenatal period no light reaches the baby, so his or her eyes have to "learn" this sense. At the very beginning, the newborn baby sees only dim shapes (like in a fog) and grey colours. Indeed, a newborn is only able to distinguish the shapes of black and white objects. Owing to this fact, it's so important to give your newborn baby or your very young infant high-contrast toys adapted to his or her abilities. Our white and black rattle will become your baby's favourite toy, and also support his or her mental and physical development.

  As the baby gets older (approx. 3-4 month of age), he or she starts to see and distinguish colours. This is the time to take high-contrast toys or colourful hanging rattles into consideration. The colours that attract the most attention (red, blue, green, yellow) encourage a baby to play. A few-months-old baby can see more clearly, so simple geometric shapes (circles, triangles, stars) may be replaced by more complex patterns, such as funny animals.

Colourful and High-Contrast Rattles and Baby's Sensory Integration

Tullo rattles also support your baby's sensory integration. Each rattle has a different texture. The toys are equipped with raised elements - small balls, stripes or smiley faces. In addition, the rattling balls, stars, flowers and animals attached to the lightweight structures are movable - they can be turned around. Moreover, each time your baby grabs the toy, the rattle makes an intriguing sound. In this way, your baby’s three senses - sight, touch and hearing - are stimulated.

While choosing the baby’s first toys, it is worth remembering not only that they should be adapted to his or her developing eyesight, but also that they should provide sensory impressions. Apart from rattles, it is also worth considering the purchase of sensory toys, for instance, spiky balls. The soft spikes stimulate blood circulation and the sensory receptors. What is more, they may be used for a relaxing massage and bath-time fun.
