Did You Know?
"Rattle" refers to both baby toys and rattlesnake tails! Rattlesnakes are born with a small button on their tail that becomes a rattle as they shed their skin and add segments. The rattle sound warns predators to stay away. Baby rattles have been used for thousands of years, with ancient examples made from clay, wood, and gourds. Rattlesnakes can shake their rattles up to 50 times per second, creating the distinctive buzzing sound!
