A taxi that is meant to rattle
The thought of an infant gumming on a New York City taxi sounds pretty unsanitary until you see the adorable, soft crocheted baby rattle toy found at Estella NYC. Handmade by Peruvian artisans, this small taxicab is the perfect size for little hands to grab and gnaw. And, the bright colors and soft yarn will really capture their attention.

I think this soft rattle would be a perfect gift for an urban baby, or even those babies who just wish they lived somewhere it costs $16 to go four blocks in a snowstorm. -Christina
