Organic Cotton Rattle Ball (Vegan)

What are a child's first words? One survey showed "Dadda" was the first word 15% of the time, with "Mamma" following closely behind at 10%.  We didn't see the full report, but we are pretty sure that the word "ball" would be on that list.  

Dads, Moms, and soft rattle balls are some of the most important things in a baby's life (okay, a ball can't compare to parents, but they are pretty darn important to those little ones). This organic cotton rattle ball from Germany would figure prominently in any little child's early life too.

The red and white ball features a mix of plush, gingham, and terry.

The blue and brown ball comes in a mix of terry and velvet.

      CARE INSTRUCTIONS

      Care Instructions for Efie Stuffed Animals

      If your wool filled stuffed animal gets dirty, you can first remove the coarse dirt with a brush. Since Efie only uses the best quality natural fibers (no polyester), heavy washing is usually not necessary.The pure sheep's wool filling is a natural fiber that can shrink, mat, or clump if exposed to hot water, harsh detergent, or strong spinning.

      Light Cleaning:

      • Brush off coarse dirt gently.

      Washing (if necessary):

      • Hand wash only
      • Use lukewarm water (comfortable to touch)
      • Use mild or wool-specific detergent
      • Avoid hot water, harsh detergents, and spinning

      Washing Process:

      • Soak in clear water first
      • Add detergent and gently move the toy in the water
      • Do not rub, brush, spin, or wring

      Drying:

      • Squeeze out excess water gently
      • Lay flat on an absorbent towel
      • Reshape and move occasionally while drying
      • Wet wool smell will disappear after drying

      The Power of Pretend Play: Unlocking Childhood Creativity

      Pretend play is more than just a simple game; it's a vital component of child development, weaving together imagination, social skills, and cognitive growth.


      It is vital that children are given space to find their imagination in solo play, while also learning about socialization and narratives while playing with other children and adults.
