New Baby Toys and Books Tips
Baby Toys Tips
- If you are giving a toy as a present, remember that new borns will not be able to play with soft toys for many months
- A toy has to be suitable to the baby's age and development stage
- Always make sure safety is your first priority. Only give your baby toys that are suitable for his/her age. Check the recommended age label
- Read any instructions that come with the toy (dad's especially!)
- Avoid sharp toys, ensure there are no loose parts (eg wheels of trains, eyes of fluffy toys...), avoid toys with small parts that can be swallowed
- There are plenty of reference books on health and safety, pregnancy, birth, parenting, breastfeeding
- Buy at least 2 books on health and safety for reference. Check what both books have to say about particular topics
