Newborn toys must be carefully selected so they are fun and attractive to the baby while being safe for the child to snuggle with and play with. These toys must be rated for specifically for babies to ensure there are no choking hazards, smothering hazards, or sharp edges or pieces which can cut or puncture tender skin.
There is a huge selection of newborn toys which meet the specifications required to quality in this class of toy. For example, the Infantino Activity Blocks are nearly four inches square and made of soft cloth stuffed with baby-safe material. Each surface of each block has unique colors, patterns and textures and each features a letter of the alphabet as well as a number. One block even has an attached teething ring. They can be squished by small hands, stacked, or used as tools for communicating with your newborn.
The rainbow colored Miracles and Milestones Touch and Cuddle Hedgehog by Fisher-Price is a perfect newborn toy. The bright colors attract the child’s attention and the bean-filled body is snuggly and can help develop dexterity. The hedgehog’s nose squeaks and the soft cloth loop “quills” are inviting touch. The bold smiling face helps the newborn learn to focus his or her eyes.
