The embodiment shown and described is a rattle for infants for attachment to the wrist, and in general resembles a wrist watch in appearance. It includes a casing of sheet material containing a quantity of small pebble-like translucent pieces of multi-faceted hard plastic, glass, or the like capable of rattling around creating the noise attributed to an infant's rattle. Since attachment by straps to the wrist not only militates against loss but also the infant's arm movements automatically effects the desired noise making. Another feature is coloring of the translucent pieces or prisms and forming them with facets for catching, refracting or reflecting the light's rays for visual interest. Around the periphery is an alphabet containing flange and the lens has a manual pointer for use with the alphabet affording an educational feature.
