Baby Rattle Recipe

Bake a batch of rice crispy balls. Form the rice crispy into the shape of a ball, allowing it to set and firm up. This acts as the top of a baby rattle. Use a Popsicle stick as the handle of the rattle. On the popsicle stick, write "It's a Boy" in Blue for a boy or "It's a girl" in pink for a girl. If the gender has not been determined, write "Baby on the Way!" Wrap the top of the rattle (the rice crispy balls) with a cellophane or plastic wrap, and secure them in place with a ribbon color to suit the gender of the baby. These make great baby shower party favors and can also be used a decorations.
