We received our "rattle-Klaus" because our daughter was about 4-5 Mon old. Through the plastic feet horse clatters quite loudly and, if it is hit in the heat of the game times in the head probably know quite do hurt. Therefore, our daughter had initially not much fun. Now she is 8 months and your rattle-Klaus is one of the favorite toys. The best way to find your feet in plastic, sucking constantly around it. But the star / pearl on the ring up like her very much. Highly Recommended but not too early! Otherwise possibly again put away and bring out later!
