How to Make a Crinkle Taggie Baby Toy

   Take two small pieces of brightly colored fabric. The main thing you need to make a crinkle taggie baby toy is material, preferably something in bright colors or contrasting like black and white so that the baby is visually stimulated.

   • You need to have two pieces of material that are identical in size and shape, but not necessarily color and texture. These will form the front and back of the toy.
   • The pieces of material do not need to be very large. In fact, an ideal size is about 8x8 inches. They don't need to be perfect squares either. The material can even be cut into the shape of an animal or other object, as long as it does not have long thin areas that would be difficult to turn inside out.

   Gather a selection of trimming materials. The tags are made with pieces of ribbon, ric-rac, bias tape, or any other trimming materials that will not fray easily.

   • Using an assortment of colors and textures for the trimming materials make the toy more attractive to the babies sense of touch.
   • The trimming materials will be folded over to form small loops so each piece should be about three inches in length.

   Save an empty cereal bag and clean it. The last thing that is needed to make the crinkle taggie toy is something to give it its crinkly sound. One of the easiest and safest things to use for this is an empty cereal bag.

   • Of course, in order to prevent the possibility of bugs being attracted to the toy, the cereal bag should be thoroughly washed and dried before it is used.
   • To do this, the cereal bag should be gently split along the seams and cut up the side to make one flat piece that is easily wiped clean with a soapy dishcloth or sponge. It can be left to air dry, or dried by hand.
