We received this toy as a hand-me-down from another mother of twins when our boys were infants, but around six months of age is when they really discovered it. It wasn't available on Amazon or anywhere else at that time, and unfortunately we only had one, so they had to share it. I ended up just buying the larger version so they would each have one (which is actually the one pictured in the "customer images" section), but it wasn't as popular and was rarely played with.

I think the attraction is that it fits perfectly in a child's grasp. Both boys just loved holding it, and periodically giving it a shake to hear the rattle. It is such a simple thing-- literally just a soft rattle about six or eight inches long-- but it was their absolute favorite toy from ages 6-12 months. They fought over it constantly.

It's made of a soft plush, very durable, and held up beautifully to multiple machine washings (my sons chewed on it constantly and it held up to that, too).

If you only buy one rattle, this is the one you want. It provided hours of contentment on car trips, and was indispensible at bedtime. I just wish I'd had two. Again, just keep in mind that it is very small. If you want the larger one shown in the customer images section; that one is about 20 inches long (I'm going on memory for both, since we no longer have either of them) and costs around $10. I'm stocking up on them now, so I have them on hand for future baby gifts.

crinkle? i must be missing something...this toy does NOT "crinkle". it has a small rattle, which is fine but it is not what i thought I was buying. I thought it was actually one of the crinkle-noise toys. My granddaughter has a crinkle book which she loves so I ordered this Mini Tinkle Crinkle. But, alas, there is no "crinkling' in this one. Am actually curious as to why it was even has the work "crinkle" in it's name,

The mini tinkle crinkle is the perfect toy for my little man! He is the third little boy in my family to fall in love with the worm! I bought extras just in case he looses it!!!! Best car toy/ chewy ever!!!!!

I originally wanted the larger version of this worm, but I'm actually glad I got this one instead. It's the perfect size for my 6-month-old to grab on to. The rattle in the tail end provides enough amusement, teaching babies cause and effect. The head and the tail are very chewable, great for teething babies. The colors are nice and bright as well. Recommended for all babies!

Our now 6 month old son began sleeping clutching this toy (we call it his caterpillar) at bedtime when he was 3 months old. It is still his best friend and he finds it both fun and soothing. It's easy for him to hug, grab, and toss, and he has fun making it crinkle and squeak. I recommend this toy to any parent with a very small child.

The small version of this toy is the perfect size and shape for my 5 month old to grab with both of her hands and stuff the little guy's head right into her mouth. She loves it! It makes a nice little rattling sound, and the bright colors are cute.

I first found these in a Childrens Hospital,to purchase for my chihuahuas.I always buy baby safe toys for my little ones.This tends to be my 10 year old chis favorite toy,so when one disappears,thx to the bigger dogs,I am on a mission at local hospitals to find this toy.Now,since I have found them at Amazon,my search is simple.I also have bought several for a new grandson(human,lol) I plan to get him addicted to them too!

This was great for my little guy, small enough for him to handle, and durable enough to handle several washes. If it had another sound feature to it, like a crinkle, it would have been better, this just has a rattle in the tail.

My baby couldn't quite hold onto this until she was a couple of weeks over 6 months old. Now she can grab on and swing it around or transfer it from one hand to the other. Sometimes she shakes it like a rattle and other times she likes to chew on it. I give this 3 stars b/c it doesn't hold her attention for more than a few minutes. Might be nice if the body of the caterpillar actually made a crinkly noise like its name implies.

We got this as a hand me down from a friend when my son was a new born. It was great for him around 3 month when he was interested in rattles. It was small enough for him to grip around with one hand. He is now 8 months old and still plays with it. His favorite part is the tail end which he really likes to suck on. We have the larger size one as well, but he was never interested in that one.
