 Top 10 baby toys your baby will love

If you have a new baby on the way, it’s time to start buying some fun things to keep your little one occupied!

 

From squishy rattles to soft plush blankets, there are plenty of toys that will help your baby learn and grow from the comfort of his or her crib. 

Check out this list of the top 10 baby toys that your little one will love!

1) Push-Pull Toys

Babies are sensitive to movement, and if you’re looking for something that’ll fascinate them, then push-pull toys might be a good place to start. 

These interactive toys challenge babies because they have an inherent push-and-pull action that draws their attention. 

Babies find it mesmerizing to watch these interactions play out over and over again—all they need is a little prodding from you.

2) Soft Toys

Babies love soft, cuddly toys, so opt for high-quality stuffed animals and plush dog toys. Make sure that they’re free of small parts or pieces that could become choking hazards.

Babies also enjoy squeaky toys, but check that they don’t have small holes or strong threads – your little one could get tangled up in these. 

Choose a variety of different textures and shapes – babies like to learn about new sensations with every play session!

3) Teething Toys

Babies go through a very painful teething process that lasts for months. 

Give them a toy that can ease their discomfort by offering them something to chew on, as well as giving them some relief from all of those bumps and bruises. 

Babies are always trying to put everything in their mouths, so why not give them something safe and fun to chew on?

4) Interactive Games

Babies crave stimulation, and interactive games make a great way to provide it. 

These games come in many shapes and sizes, but one thing they all have in common is that they introduce objects, sounds, textures, and motions. 

Anything with buttons, lights, or music will do! Babies love opening doors on electronic toys, playing peek-a-boo with soft animals, or shaking rattles filled with balls.

5) Educational Toys

The best educational toys help kids learn while playing, often without even realizing it. 

While there are countless toy options on store shelves, choosing one that’s appropriate for your little one can be a challenge. 

An educational toy should never bore them but instead spark their curiosity and challenge them to reach new heights of fun.

6) Playmats

When you buy a new toy for your child, make sure it’s something they can play with at home. After all, who wants to drag around a bunch of plastic toys when you leave home?

 That being said, there are some fantastic travel or portable toys that are just as much fun as their big brothers and sisters.

7) Baby Monitors

Baby monitors have advanced a lot in recent years. We’ve gone from single-channel video cameras to crystal clear 1080p cameras that can stream live video to our phones or computers and now even have two-way talkback so we can hear, see, and talk to our little ones from anywhere. 

Babies are our most precious resource and a good baby monitor gives us peace of mind that we’ll always know what’s going on with them when they’re sleeping or otherwise occupied.

8) Bouncers/Swing

Babies enjoy being in a bouncer but don’t buy one with a vibrating seat because it could potentially cause hearing damage.

 If you go with a traditional chair, make sure it has three-point restraint straps (in case of tumbles).

 Bouncers have been linked to SIDS and research shows that infants who spend time in them are at higher risk for breathing problems, ear infections, and developmental delays. You can find more information on safe sleep here.

9) Toy Vehicles

It’s no secret that babies like to play with toy vehicles. They’re basically cars with smaller wheels. Babies also like to make car noises (Beep! Beep!) as they grab and push their vehicle of choice around.

10) Bath Time Fun

Babies spend lots of time in bathtubs, so it’s no surprise that they like bath toys.

 However, they don’t just want any old kind of toy. Some babies can be really particular about what kinds of bath toys they play with (and which ones they leave alone). 

If you want to give your child a gift that is sure to be a hit, here are some great options.
