PlanToys High Contrast Infant Rattle Set
MTA Teachers Resource Catalogue Page: 543
PlanToys High Contrast Infant Rattle Set is backordered and will ship as soon as it is back in stock.
The PlanToys High Contrast Infant Rattle Set brings together five beautifully designed resources to captivate babies while supporting essential early development. This complete set includes the PlanToys High Contrast Shaking Rattle, High Contrast Beads Rattle, High Contrast Baby Key Rattle, High Contrast Square Clutcher and High Contrast Triangle Clutching toy. Each piece is carefully shaped for small hands to grasp, shake and explore, with gentle rattling sounds that support auditory development and engaging high-contrast colours that are easier for young babies to see and help develop visual focus. From the flexible square clutcher with sliding red, white, black and grey beads, to the detachable two-tone rattle ball in the triangle clutching toy, babies are encouraged to discover cause and effect, build fine and gross motor skills, strengthen grip and muscles, and enjoy complete sensory stimulation. Smooth wooden finishes, soft forms and inviting textures promote tactile exploration, bilateral coordination, emotional growth and hand-eye coordination, while sustainably made materials support environmentally conscious practice in infant rooms and homes.
Kit Contents
- PlanToys High Contrast Shaking Rattle - ergonomic rattle that captures visual interest and stimulates early sensory engagement with gentle sounds.
- PlanToys High Contrast Beads Rattle - smooth wooden ring with soft, high-contrast coloured beads for soothing sound and tactile exploration.
- PlanToys High Contrast Baby Key Rattle - vibrant keys that are easy to grasp, encouraging fine motor skills, sensory stimulation and cause-and-effect learning.
- PlanToys High Contrast Square Clutcher - flexible square wooden frame with colourful beads that slide and rattle, offering complete sensory stimulation.
- High Contrast Triangle Clutching - triangle frame with detachable two-tone ball that doubles as a rattle for versatile early play.
Educational Benefits
- Supports fine and gross motor skill development as babies grasp, shake, squeeze, twist and transfer toys between hands.
- Encourages sensory development and hand-eye coordination through varied textures, shapes, movements and gentle rattling sounds.
- High-contrast colours such as black, red, white and grey help babies develop visual focus, tracking and early attention skills.
- Promotes early cognitive, emotional and cause-and-effect learning as babies discover how their actions create sound, movement and new experiences.
Classroom Ideas
- Create a high-contrast treasure basket using all five pieces, inviting babies to explore sound, colour and texture during floor or mat time.
- Use the rattles and clutcher toys during tummy time to motivate lifting, turning and tracking as you move them slowly within the baby's visual field.
- Rotate individual pieces into small-group music and movement sessions, shaking along to simple rhymes and songs to introduce rhythm and turn taking.
- Position toys just within and just out of reach on a soft mat so babies can practise stretching, rolling, reaching and early crawling towards preferred items.
