Tim the Tiger Squeaker Rattle

Tim the Tiger Squeaker Rattle — squeeze him and he squeaks, shake him and he rattles

A small, soft tiger, 7.5 x 5 x 13.5cm, with a squeak when he is squeezed and a rattle when he is shaken. Plush fabric, smooth vegan leather and raised embroidery give him three textures in one. PVC free, wipe clean, and suitable from birth. By Little Big Friends.

🔔 Cause and effect, in a toy this size

Newborns cannot do much on purpose yet, so the first time they realise they have made something happen is a big deal. Give Tim a squeeze and he squeaks. Give him a shake and he rattles. Before long your baby works out that the noise is not just happening. They are making it happen.

🐯 Three textures to explore

Soft plush, smooth vegan leather and raised embroidered details, all in one small tiger. Babies learn through their hands and mouths, and a toy with several surfaces gives them more to work out than one that feels the same all over.

👀 Something to follow

Hold Tim up and move him slowly, and your baby will track him with their eyes. The squeak gives them a reason to keep looking. From around three months, they start reaching for him, and soon after they pass him from hand to hand.

⚠️ Worth knowing before you buy

• Wipe clean only. Use a damp cloth and let him air dry. No bleach, and no washing machine.
• He squeaks. Not a silent toy, which is worth knowing for quiet places.

❓ Frequently asked questions

Can a newborn hold it?
Not on their own at first. Newborns love to watch and listen while you shake it; most babies hold a rattle themselves from around three months.

How do I clean it?
Wipe with a damp cloth and let it air dry. It should not go in the machine.

Does it match anything?
Yes, the Tim the Tiger Comforter, and both are in the Jungle Baby Gift Box.

Is it a good new baby gift?
Yes. Small, soft and useful from birth.
