Because babies love to play with paper... When the maker of Baby Paper's children were young, she would find herself handing them paper napkins to entertain them in restaurants. Many napkins later, the idea for Baby Paper was born! Small enough for tiny hands to grasp, Baby Paper makes a crinkly "paper" sound that keeps babies occupied. So simple and yet so effective! (And it doesn't tear like a paper napkin!) When unfolded it measures approximately 6"x6". Baby Paper is washable! Simply hand or machine wash in warm water with like colors. Tumble dry low or air dry! So simple, yet so effective! (And it doesn't tear like a paper napkin!)
