Shaped like a telephone handset, the bright blue and orange handle has textured ridges that are interesting to see, touch and eventually taste. The end-pieces of the rattle have red rings and high contrast black and white bulls-eye on one end and beads that rattle in a mirrored dome on the other end. It has a quiet amount of sound so it will not startle a very young baby. It is bigger than some other phone rattles and may be a better choice for slightly older children.
