Each shield is cut from light maple hardwood and left natural and unstained. A mix of organic beeswax and flaxseed oil brings out the grain and protects the wood, so it feels smooth and warm in small hands.

Engraved to Carry a Name

Leave it plain or have it laser engraved with a name, a hyphenated word, or full birth stats like date, time, length, and weight. It becomes a keepsake that tells your baby's story long after the rattle stops rattling.

How to Choose a Keepsake Rattle

A rattle this personal is worth a little thought before you order, especially once engraving is involved.

  1. Decide on wording early: A single word or a short name fits cleanly on the shield. If you want two words, a hyphenated name, or full birth stats, plan for the extra length so the engraving reads clearly.
  2. Pick colors that mean something: You can choose any 3 disk colors, so many parents match them to a department's colors, a birthstone, or simply their favorite palette.
  3. Check the double check your spelling: Since engraving is permanent, read the name, date, and stats twice before checkout. A second set of eyes catches typos the first set misses.
  4. Think past the rattle stage: Because it is solid wood with no small removable parts, it holds up as a keepsake on a shelf long after your baby outgrows rattles.
  5. Consider who it is for: This design is made for a child whose parent or family member serves in police, fire, EMS, sheriff, military, or medical work, which makes it a meaningful baby shower or new dad gift.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this rattle safe for a newborn?

Yes. It is made for ages 0 and up, built from solid maple with no small detachable parts, and it is CPSC compliant.

Can I choose any colors for the disks?

Yes, you can pick any 3 disk colors when you order, so you can match a uniform color, a birthstone, or a personal favorite.

What can be engraved on the rattle?

You can leave it plain or add a single word, two words including hyphenated names, or full birth stats such as name, birth date, time, length, and weight. Two word or hyphenated names require choosing the two word option at checkout, and three or more words need the birth stat option.

What is the rattle finished with?

It is finished with a mix of organic beeswax and flaxseed oil rather than paint or stain, which keeps the natural maple look and feel.

How do I clean the rattle?

Wipe it with a slightly damp cloth and let it air dry. Avoid soaking it or running it through the dishwasher, since that can damage the wood finish over time.

What if I need to return it or have questions about shipping?

We ship from a US warehouse and offer free US shipping on orders over 100 dollars, with 30 day returns and a real person on our customer support team if you need help.
