Crochet Sun, Moon and Star Baby Gym Toys – PDF pattern

Crochet Sun, Moon and Star Baby Gym Toys inspired by Montessori pedagogy

Create your own dreamy baby mobile with this downloadable crochet pattern featuring three high-contrast shapes: a stripy moon, a sun, and a polka-dot star.

Created especially for newborns, these toys encourage early visual development and make a lovely addition to a Montessori-inspired nursery. Ideal for babies from 1 to 6 weeks old.

Although the skill level is set to Intermediate, this pattern is ideal for confident beginners and experienced crocheters alike. The finished toys can be hung from a baby gym, crib mobile, or stroller. Each piece includes a simple design, clear instructions, and step-by-step photos to guide you through.

Pattern includes:

• Crochet instructions for the sun, moon, and star

• Tips for assembling and hanging the toys

• Suggested materials (yarn type, stuffing, and beads)

• Optional sensory features: stuff the sun with crinkle material for extra sensory play, and turn the moon into a soft rattle so it can be enjoyed long after baby outgrows the mobile
