Award Winning Toys for Infants and Toddlers
Is your baby or toddler having a birthday, do you need a gift for a niece, nephew or a friend’s baby or toddler. With all the toys out there sometimes it’s hard to know which toys are the most age appropriate and safest toys to buy for our children.
Toys play an important part in baby’s and toddler’s development. They help build hand-eye coordination, stimulate senses, develop motor skills and creativity.
The best toys for infants are toys that attract attention. Toys that have bright colors, patterns, different textures, play music and have dancing lights, fascinate young babies. Babies love to put things in their mouth. Soft pliable toys make it easy for them to do just that.
Toddlers want to explore everything and imitate adults. They are developing motor skills and speaking functions. Playtime is not only for amusement, but every moment your child is learning something new. This is the age when you can introduce numbering and the alphabet.
The best toys for toddlers will have buttons to push, songs to listen to and sing along with, wheels to pull and push, blocks to build with or shapes to sort. Toys that let your child use his or her imagination enhance physical development and coordination.
