~~~~~~~~~~~ INTRODUCTION ~~~~~~~~~~~ While sorting out the house in anticipation of my newborn son coming home (mother and baby were in hospital for four days after he was born) my wife asked me to order some relatively run of the mill baby stuff on-line (bottles, sterilisers and the like). While surfing Amazon, I noticed some recommendations they had made on the back of some previous baby-related purchases. Normally, I ignore them, as I can find Amazon's assumptions of what you may like a little weird and intrusive, but on this occasion, one particular item caught my eye - the colourful Lamaze Gardenbug Wrist Rattle and Footfinder ...  Read the complete review

I really love the Lamaze range of baby toys, and my daughter is gathering a good amount of them in her toy box. For Christmas, she received a Lamaze gift box from her grandparents which included several different Lamaze items including this set of Gardenbug Wrist Rattles an Footfinders, which costs just under £9 for the set on the likes of amazon. Within this set, there are two wrist rattles, and two footfinders, which are meant to be put on the appropriate parts of your baby and with the rattle noise encourage discovery, hand eye coordination and even inspire pretend play. Well since my daughter is almost five months old, the pretend play element is not ...  Read the complete review

Although Mr Lools and I did receive a large number of gifts and toys when our twin boys were born this did not stop us from purchasing yet more toys for them, even from a young age. Because we were given a lot of gift vouchers and gift cards we were itching to spend these on our boys and as a result made quite a few purchases in the first few weeks after they were born. As new parents, bright, colourful and pretty toys caught our eyes and one of these toys that we purchased in this "new parent haze" was the Lamaze Wrist Rattles and Feet Finders. ***Lamaze Wrist Rattles and Feet Finders*** The Lamaze Wrist Rattles and Feet Finders are ...  Read the complete review

We were given these as a present when our son was born. I had looked at them in the shop a few times but hadn't picked them up- I am so glad that someone else had the sense to! The black and white stripes on the socks are great for grabbing attention, especially when your child is younger as the contrasting colours are easier to see. The bugs on the feet and wrist straps are really bright and cute looking, my son really likes the ones on the wrist straps and spends a long time staring at them! I found the socks more useful than the wrist straps because my son became more aware of his feet through using the socks whereas the only thing he seemed to ...  Read the complete review

I purchased this wrist rattle and foot finder set for my baby boy, I started to put the wrist rattles on him when he was 3 months. He loves to wave his arms around to hear the sound, but his favourite activity with them, was of course to suck them! There are 2 wrist rattles in the set and they fasten around your baby's wrist with velcro. They are very bold colours with a soft bug on each one. (Im not sure what bugs they are meant to be but they are cute anyway.) My baby is now 4 months and has found his feet, therefore I have started to put the foot finders on him, and they are just like socks that slide on. There are 2 feet finders in ...  Read the complete review
