Pricey, but our girl loves it. Best toy for visual and auditory tracking. Great for grasping too. Just wish I didn't have to replace the battery.

This little rattle helps you entertain or distract your baby, it’s like a little baby sitter! They can grip it easily and it has a cute little friendly face that changes colors glows in the dark , and it rattles at the same time. It also has a mirror at the bottom., and it can be easily stood up so that they can even watch it on the table. Of all the toys this was my grandson’s favorite. When he was a baby he would latch onto it with his hand, and since they can’t release easily, he would just be mesmerized with this little thing at the end of his hand.! 🤩 I know it’s expensive, but I highly recommend it. It travels easily to Restaurants for entertainment and also at home. It comes with batteries already in, and in my opinion, they last very very long since I’ve never have replaced them.

Baby’s favorite toy! It lights up in different colors, has a thin handle and a wonderful rattle noise.

I don’t know what kind of magic is in this rattle, but it keeps my baby from crying at any given moment. It is the first toy he has actually played with and not just put in his mouth, probably because of the size, weight, and ease of holding it in his little hands. He loves the lights and the sound, and a huge plus is that it’s not an annoying sound for mom! All his friends have bought it because of how much all the kids love it

First, the NogginStik is an excellent toy. We bought it for our baby boy when he was just a few months old. My wife and I call it the "cheat code" because it's so effective at getting our son's attention and calming him down if nothing else works.Second, the company is great and takes care of their customers. We used the NogginStik several times per week with our son for several months. Then one day it stopped working. Eventually I got around to replacing the batteries, but we still couldn't get it to work. An email to the company later and we had a replacement in the mail. When we received the package, not only did we have a replacement NogginStik, but they had included another product as a thank you. Great company!

It would be a 5 star if it didn’t break. It was such a great toy but unfortunately it was the 2nd one that broke. Would expect it to be hardy being a child’s toy.

At first spending $20 on a rattle seemed crazy to me. But this toy has truly been a lifesaver multiple times.1. It is the perfect size for tiny hands (my daughter was 3 months when we purchased this)2. There are no sharp edges or potential hazard to worry me if she plays with it unsupervised. Like while in the car as we travel. (Definitely improved our outings)3. Has multiple colors for eye development the black and white mirror base is perfect for younger babies and the top part is great for getting babies attention.It only makes a basic rattle sound and lights up in the three colors red green and blue.We use this toy everywhere to keep our little girl happy when she begins to fuss. Now that she has begun teething we've noticed she loves nibbling on the ears. The ball part itself is too large for her mouth which is good.Times we find the noggin stick benificial:1. Tummy time- gets her to turn her head both directions and look up. Also recently succeded in helping my daughter learn to roll over.2. When shes not feeling well and we need her temperature or are at the doctors the rattle sound seems to soothe her and let her focus on it vs her fever or shots etc.3. In the car! Being a first time mom car rides were heartbreaking for me to hear her fussing and I couldn't do anything to help while driving. The noggin stick is a game changer she entertains herself and I can drive safely not worrying about trying to get home quicker etc.4. Family gatherings to help her tune out when shes being overstimulated by all the family members wanting to see her.5. Shopping. Shopping with a newborn is a feat in itself there's the stroller, cart, and numerous diaper changes my daughter liked to melt down everytime we went shopping until she had her noggin stick come in its pretty prime box. Now while it doesn't help with the cart diapers or stroller situation it has helped prevent more melt downs than I can count. I simply shake it and grab her attention and its like shes forgot why shes crying. Sooooo useful.6. Holiday photos. My daughter loves to smile at her noggin stick and stare at it so it was perfect to get monthly pictures done.7. Basic home playtime this toy has textured nubs that help her learn to grasp things and the stick is small enough where she can easily grip it.Almost lost the toy at the zoo and was about to have to order a replacement until we found it under out seats in the car. Still tempted to order a backup just in case.Hope this helps.
