# Eco Spirit Shakers Wooden Baby Rattles by Earnest Efforts Made of Remnant Wood By Katherinev123 | Published 2009-09-14 | Life-Stages Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wooden-baby-rattles References: [inhabitots](http://www.inhabitots.com/2009/09/13/earnest-efforts-sustainable-wooden-baby-rattle/) & [inhabitatshop](http://www.inhabitatshop.com/Earnest-Efforts-Wood-Baby-Rattle.html) Shake, shake, shake! What’s that sound? It’s apparently the noise of a baby making “music” while being environmentally friendly. These sustainable wooden baby rattles by Earnest Efforts are hand-made by the remnant woods of Oregon—meaning no living trees were used in their creation. Each rattle is made to fit a baby’s hand, filled with copper BBs, hand-sanded for an ultra-smooth finish, and glazed with Clapham’s all-natural beeswax so they are entirely nontoxic. Great for the environment, yes, but will it keep a baby hooked? ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.9/10 - Popularity: 3% | Activity: 15% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Alpha, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Life-Stages](https://www.trendhunter.com/life-stages) > [Toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/toys) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Sustainable Baby Products:** The trend of sustainable baby products presents an opportunity for disruptive innovation in creating eco-friendly and non-toxic alternatives. - **Handcrafted Wooden Toys:** The handcrafted wooden toy trend provides an opportunity for disruptive innovation in creating unique and eco-friendly toys that appeal to conscious consumers. - **Non-toxic Baby Rattles:** The trend of non-toxic baby rattles creates an opportunity for disruptive innovation in developing safe and eco-friendly toys for infants. ### Who This Affects Most - **Eco-friendly Baby Products:** The eco-friendly baby product industry can capitalize on the trend of sustainable and non-toxic baby products, offering innovative alternatives to traditional ones. - **Woodworking and Toy Manufacturing:** The woodworking and toy manufacturing industry can leverage the trend of handcrafted wooden toys to create distinctive and sustainable toys that cater to eco-conscious consumers. - **Baby Toy Industry:** The baby toy industry can tap into the trend of non-toxic baby rattles, focusing on developing safe and eco-friendly toys that prioritize the well-being of infants. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Artisanal Wooden Kitchen Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wooden-kitchen-tools.md) - [Eco-Friendly Bath Essentials](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kids-bath-products.md) - [Reusable Baby Care Product Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/goodnest.md) - [Sustainable German Baby Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/super-pharm.md) - [Wood-Crafted Eco-Friendly Crayons](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/forest-crayon.md) - [Developmental Bath Toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bath-toy-collection.md) - [Adorable Organic Stuffed Animals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/organic-stuffed-animals.md) - [Baby-Focused Learning Toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/matchstick-monkey.md) - [Vegan-Certified Baby Skincare Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/birch-baby.md)
