Introduce your baby to marine life - an octopus, a whale, a starfish.

The PATTERN contains English description of crocheting spiral baby hanging rattles - original and safe toy for newborn!

This spiral can be hung on a bed, on a stroller and used as an educational toy for a baby.

In the elements of toys are used different materials to increase the tactile sensations. Rattles and other decorative elements are important for baby’s development.
