Lamaze Baby Toys

By Samantha Summer


It's always an enjoyable and satisfying experience to choose baby toys. You get to experience the opportunity of being a child once again. Other than that, this experience might also make a person feel confused because of the wide variety of toys available in the market to choose from. But it should be remembered that in picking up toys for babies, there are important things to be considered. Age-appropriate, safe and toys that would help in the child's development and learning process are the characteristics of a good toy that one should choose to pick up.

This is where Lamaze baby toys come in. These toys are created and designed based on the three stages of development of an infant. The three stages of infant development include:

1. Awakening the senses is the first stage.

2. Second stage is exploring and experimenting.

3. Moving and doing-third stage

With cooperation from Jerome and Dorothy Singer, two psychologists from Yale University, Lamaze baby toys were designed and created. Lamaze baby toys were created based on three stages of development of babies, however, they were not able to provide academic research that can prove their claim regarding the appropriateness of Lamaze toys. The good thing about this toys, though, is that they give parents the opportunity to select easily the appropriate toy for the development of their child as well as the appropriate toy for their child's characteristics. Also, part of the proceeds whenever a person buys from Lamaze toys is allotted to be spent in future research and studies about child development.

Safety of the baby when playing with the toy is one of the primary concerns before buying a toy. Lamaze toys have passed US as well as China quality standards assuring most parents that buys these toys that they are of high-quality and are safe for babies to play with. Also, upon buying Lamaze toys for baby, buyers also get a manual containing instructions on how to help your child attain learning and development by using Lamaze baby toys.

These toys are also proven to catch the interest of your baby since they have features that most babies find interesting. These features include:

Same with other toys, Lamaze baby toys are interesting and eye-catching for children and babies because of different features. Some of the features are:

2. Dropping the toy and thus making it dirty is always a concern for most parents because babies are not very good in holding toys, but Lamaze toys they usually come with soft handles that are easy to grab and easy to hold thus providing little chance that toys will be dropped.

3. Comfortable and soft features making it safe for babies to play with.

4. Because Lamaze developers know that babies usually suffers from gum pains when they are teething, they created their toys and provide rings that will serve as teethers for babies. These teethers will aid in relieving gum pains that babies experience when teething. Babies may bite or chew this ring.

5. Toys should easily get the attention and interest of babies to ensure that they will play with these toys. Lamaze baby toys are conceptualized and designed with many details that will awaken a baby's interest.

As parents, there are instances where you may be tempted to buy inexpensive toys rather spend a great deal of money on Lamaze toys. But let's keep in mind that learning and development of our children is very important since these development and learning process starts as early as your baby is born. There is no price that can be put on making sure that the toys that you give to your baby is not only safe but provides an avenue for your child's learning and development.
