Baby toys are an essential part of a baby's layette. Why are toys important for babies? The right toys encourage play and learning, and playfully inspire your baby to explore the world. Of course, they are specially designed to meet the needs of little ones and are child-friendly. It's not just important that the toys look good; they must also be of high quality and should not consist of small parts. This is the only way to guarantee safety and eliminate the risk of injury. Mamarella baby toys meet all these criteria and look great, too. To help you choose the right toys, we'd like to give you a brief overview.
It's important to consider your child's age and developmental stage when choosing toys. This way, you can perfectly match the toys to their sensory development and use them ideally. You should also always pay attention to the manufacturer's age recommendations.
Toys for the first months
In the first few months, your baby undergoes rapid development, gradually activating their senses. You can support and encourage this development with the right baby toys. For example, rattles and teething rings are ideal for the first few months. A teething ring is especially helpful when your baby is teething, as this type of toy helps soothe pain. Later, when your baby starts making conscious grasping movements, you can support this developmental process and specifically promote motor skills with easy-to-grasp toys such as rattles and small grasping rings.
As soon as your child gets a little older, they begin to perceive their environment more consciously. From the age of one, you can then more specifically refine their hand-eye coordination and encourage your child with toys that promote crawling and support learning to walk. A mobile can also be a lovely addition. The various elements, contrasting colors, and shapes actively motivate your baby to reach for them. This is especially practical above the changing table: it helps prevent your baby from constantly rolling onto their tummy, as their attention will be focused on the mobile.
Must-have: Baby musical mobile
With the gentle music of a musical mobile, you can entertain and soothe your baby from the very beginning. They're not just decorative for the crib; their harmonious melodies also help your baby fall asleep and promote restful sleep. Most musical mobiles for babies are hidden inside small soft toys. Simply pulling a string releases the gentle sounds.
A loyal friend
A baby cuddly toy can be a loyal companion and friend for your child right from the start. It can be taken everywhere and explore the world together with your child. The soft material and familiar scent create a feeling of security and trust. Cuddly toys made from organic cotton are particularly suitable.
Wooden toys: the classic among toys
Wooden toys have a well-deserved reputation: environmentally friendly, durable, and versatile, they are practically the perfect toys. At Mamarella, you'll find a wide variety of wooden toys, from pull-along animals for learning to walk and rattles to stroller books. Naturally, the paints used are non-toxic and safe for your child to put in their mouth. Wooden building blocks and stacking games, with their vibrant colors and pleasant texture, make playtime an exciting experience and playfully encourage creativity.
Baby toys as a gift
Giving new parents toys for their newborn is always a good idea. A little tip: it doesn't always have to be toys for newborns. In many cases, new parents receive a lot of toys for infants as gifts. So, it's perfectly fine to include toys for the coming months, as the baby is usually already well-equipped for the first few months.
Storage for baby toys
If you're wondering how best to store toys, we have plenty of clever storage solutions for the nursery. For example, you can store them in baskets, boxes, or chests. Innovative combination storage solutions are especially practical: they function as both a toy bag and a playmat. This way, you can quickly create order, giving you more time for play and fun.
