Babyplay Klank The Robot

Klank is a soft toy robot that comes armed with six great features to keep those little minds entertained.

Winkle Rattle

Colour Burst Winkle Rattle

With an air of mad scientist about it, this innovative rattle is made up of brightly coloured loops that are easy for little hands to explore. It’s lightweight and therefore ideal for babies learning how to grasp and shake. Although the loops might look rigid they are actually soft and flexible, which make it easy to fold down and fit into a changing bag. Its bright colours assist with visionary skills and you can even pop it in the fridge to soothe teething gums.
