Manhattan Toy Skwish Classic

I initially saw this toy at my baby's school/day care. I immediately fell in love with it because it looked super easy for his hands to grab and hold on to while rattling the beads that slide back and forth. I also thought it was super cool how the baby can flatten it and move it around as they begin to experience cause and effect, unlike another similar toy which didn't offer any flexibility for little hands.It is constructed of wood but also has those elastic tiles so it can flatten and pop back into the original shape. It is dual purpose as a rattle but also good for teething babies. It is constructed of sustainable wood with a non-toxic, water based finish - so I don't worry when my baby puts it in his mouth. All in all I am very pleased with this toy, how it is constructed, how it fits my little one's hands perfectly, and how it has held up! I would highly recommend!

This toy is exciting and always catches the attention of my daughter who has had it for a few months now (we got it for her when she was three months old). It makes noise when moved around, the colors are enticing and it is easy for her to hold onto and chew on. The only thing that makes me nervous is the paint job on the wood seems like it could be a little porous in places, but in the description it says that it is safe for children to chew on so I truly hope that it is. I bought a lead testing kit and will absolutely update this review once I test the paint if it comes up positive! She really loves it and it's a cool design, so fingers crossed it is legitimately a safe product.

The Manhattan Toys skwish classic rattle and teether is a sensory delight for infants. Its vibrant colors and engaging design captivate little ones, promoting both visual and tactile exploration. The flexible structure allows for easy grasping, aiding in motor skill development. Also it is great for teething babies. 🌈👶🏽 Highly recommend it for its quality construction and developmental benefits!

I bought it for my eldest child, and it’s still Looks brand new after 5 years and 2 more kids . Great values for money

Our daughter just turned 4 months old last week, we offer a variety of developmentally appropriate toys, most of which are Montessori inspired. We just got this toy today and she absolutely loves it! She’s incredibly fascinated by it, can easily hold and grab it, she can explore it with her mouth and when the balls move it makes a light rattle sound so it’s stimulating her in various ways. It is also very well made, I can’t recommend this product enough!

First off, I absolutely love Manhattan Toy products! That said, I’m going to say the same thing about this one as I said about another similar Manhattan Toy that I bought my son for his first birthday: the toy itself gets 5 stars, no question. However, if I were rating how much my son liked it, I would give it probably 2 1/2 stars because unfortunately, my one-year-old isn’t as thrilled about it as I am ☹️. He’s thrown it around a little bit, stepped on it a few times, shaken it once or twice, but other than that it’s gotten very little attention (from him) in the month or so since I bought it. Me, on the other hand .. I love it! I find it very aesthetically pleasing — the colors aren’t too dull or too bright — it’s made of a wonderfully soft, almost rubbery wood & it really is as elastic & squishy as they claim! I could literally spend hours just mindlessly squishing it, shaking it, or passing it from hand to hand. Another big plus is that because it’s such a well-made toy, I don’t see it breaking anytime soon, which means there’s lots of time yet for my son to fall in love with it! This has happened with a number of his other toys (possibly because he was born 6 weeks early so sometimes it can take a minute for him to catch up to what other kids his age are into). So, all that said, I would still buy it again .. it’s just one of those toys that you can really feel good about buying for your little one. Plus, what adult doesn’t love a toy they can play with, too?! Please let me know if you found this review helpful, as I also rely heavily on others’ reviews when purchasing items online 🙂.

I bought this toy for my 4 mo daughter, but it turns out that my 2.5 yo son also really likes it. My daughter finds the knobs perfect for chewing on (she works her way around to each of them.) I'm not sure what my son likes so much about it, except that my daughter likes it and therefore he finds it interesting, but he brings it upstairs and downstairs with him and I randomly find him playing with it or just holding it. It is well made, and I am comfortable with my daughter chewing on it. I would have preferred the natural wood option, but it was much more expensive and harder to find. The paint on this one has not chipped at all so far and they probably enjoy the bright colors. It is easy for my daughter to grasp and she can't easily get her fingers caught anywhere (it has happened once, but it was barely a pinch and she was able to free herself.)

This is a classic kids toy that most kids will love. I purchased this because it is an excellent example of Tensegrity. I use this as a teaching tool in my massage practice to help people understand what tensegrity is and how your fascia works in your body.

Must go for this product . My baby is in love with this

Los juguetes de esta marca son garantía de calidad. A los niños les encanta agarrar, estirar, golpear, agitar, observar y en especial probar. Todo lo pueden hacer con toda seguridad. Ampliamente recomendable para los más chiquitos.

This is a great classic toy. It was delivered as expected.

Seems really cool! Baby seems to like it. He instantly grabbed it and tried to bite it. He doesn’t really pay much attention to his toys (he’s only three months old) so for him to grab it the way he did and bite it was the most interaction I’ve seen him have with a toy. The only reason I am giving this four stars is because the box was open upon arrival so I was skeptical on whether or not it was used. Doesn’t look used but the box was open so that’s odd to me. Other than that, pretty awesome toy! I feel like he is benefiting with everything. The texture, the teethers, the patterns and shapes and the way it squishes down. Heck even I was fascinated by it. Great toy.

My little guy really enjoys this toy. It's easy for him to manipulate, it has a gentle rattle, the colours are bright and interesting, and he loves putting the little knobs in his mouth and gumming them. I got this toy for my baby when he was 3 months old and he still enjoys it at 5 months.
