A super soft and entertaining plush ball that has an internal tinkle bell chime, and is covered in little crinkle tabs, textured material pieces, and a small handle. This ball is a great way to experiment with the senses! The different textures associate with feel, the colors with sight, and the little tinkle noise with sound. The sound only happens when the ball is shaken. The ball has all the main prismatic rainbow colors, not in order, and is approximately 6" in diameter.
Publisher's Description of Baby Einstein Cal Chime Ball
Baby Einstein has always been synonymous with young curiosity. We've partnered with them to create a line of toys that blend our lush materials and designs with their characters and inquisitiveness. These gifts are the best of both worlds, with features and forms that engage a baby in each of their five senses and invite parents to play along too.
6" Cause and effect are the thought behind these chime balls. The chime and crinkle sounds stimulate babies as they play. The soft handle is easy to grab and a variety of textures and colors add to the fun.
