Channapatna Wooden Noisy Bug Toy

This craft from Channapatna embraces the time-honoured techniques of chiselling locally harvested ivory wood into precise forms. Skilled artisans use specialised tools to shape and then smoothen, finally assembling and decoratively painting these pieces with non-toxic, natural dyes. Noise-making toys for infants promote auditory stimulation, aiding in the development of hearing, attention, and language skills. They encourage cognitive growth by teaching cause and effect, while also improving motor skills through grasping and manipulation. This multi-sensory engagement lays the foundation for overall progress.
