Ring Maraca

The Ring Maraca is perfect for baby's grip, offering a flexible, squishy ring that is safe for babies to hit and drop as they explore sound and movement. The rings make a gentle rattling sound while shaking which help enhance the sense of hearing and fine motor skill, inviting little ones to grasp, shake and experiment with different rhythms. The Ring Maraca is designed to support the sense of touch, allowing children to discover and explore their environment through their senses with different textures. It also nurtures the sense of hearing, making sounds that enable progress in auditory and musical faculties as babies begin to notice changes in volume, tempo and direction. As a discovery toy, it encourages children to go out to explore the world around them and be aware of and engaged with their environment, noticing how their actions cause sounds and movement. With its baby-friendly size of approximately 11cm (W) x 13cm (L) x 5.5cm (H), the Ring Maraca is easy for tiny hands to hold, turn and transfer from one hand to the other, helping build coordination and strength. Suitable from birth, this simple yet thoughtfully designed rattle makes a beautiful addition to baby rooms, music baskets and sensory play collections, supporting calm, curious and joyful early learning.
