I think it is always fun to have a really amusing toy - one that looks cute and silly while at the same time holds up to twisting, turning, chewing shaking and dropping.

If you think that sounds good I suggest the Amazing Baby Clicky Duck. Designed for infants through 24 months this is a colorful and soft quacker with pretty and recognizable embroidered designs. The body has three segments which twist around with a friendly "click clack" sound. The big orange web feet are textured for teething and sized for safety. This duck not only rattles, it has an adorable crinkle sound in the bright orange and yellow flippers. Bright satin ribbons are not only a cute fringe decoration; they are perfect for little fingers to stroke. The black and white clip easily attaches to a stroller or carrier.

ab™ toys are based on the amazing baby™ book series. Their toys are uniquely based on accepted research of how babies develop in the first two years of life. Baby Clicky Duck fosters independent play, promotes logical thinking, assists in the development of observation skills, promotes eye and hand coordination and stimulates imagination. But don't forget - I said it is fun!
