Montessori 0-4 Month Collection

Description

Our first Heirloom Essentials set includes everything pictured: a set of 4 two-sided black-and-white cards, the bell rattle, the grasping beads, the rectangle teether, and the bead rattle. The black and white cards can be used from birth, while the rattles and teethers can be used as soon as baby can grasp (or a little earlier with the reflexive grasp). Introducing graspers and rattles to young babies helps them to understand that their movements can produce action–when their arm moves the rattle, it produces sound. This process encourages purposeful grasping and shaking in the young infant. Babies typically begin to grasp purposefully around the 2-3 month mark. The included rattles and teethers are made purposefully small and lightweight to be appropriate for very little hands. While babies can begin using them at this young age, they should continue to enjoy them months later.
