Guide to buying stuffed animals for children

High-quality and durable stuffed animal material

The outer layer of fur is the surface that comes into direct contact with the baby. Therefore, mothers should pay special attention to choosing carefully at this step. We see that there are many types of materials used such as: long thick fur, short fur, nylon fur, cotton fur… Each type of material will produce a stuffed animal with its own beauty but also carries potential dangers for children.

Long-haired stuffed animals

Stuffed animals with long fur often bring a soft, fluffy and eye-catching feeling, but most of the products sold in Vietnam are of very poor quality. After 1 to 2 months of use, a lot of fur will fall out and this is absolutely not good for the baby. The baby can inhale it and get respiratory diseases. So if you want to buy this type of stuffed animal, mothers should buy imported products such as: Nici Jolly Sleepy Standing Sheep Stuffed Animal, Nici Beige Standing Bear Stuffed Animal 31089, Nici Black Standing Sheep Stuffed Animal, New Standing Caramel Bear Stuffed Animal… Although the price is a bit expensive, mothers can be completely assured when their children play with it.

The only outstanding feature of this type of stuffed animal is that it is cheap. Nha Gau absolutely does not want mothers to buy this type. Why? Because nylon is a material that does not absorb sweat, it will easily get wet, bacteria will easily grow and cause allergies or skin diseases when children play. Moreover, it is a synthetic substance and uses dyes with quite strong chemicals. This increases the concern when children come into contact with it.

Short-haired stuffed animals

Gear House recommends that mothers choose stuffed animals with short cotton hair such as Pororo Stuffed Animals, Nici Elephant Lady Stuffed Animals, Nici Mouse Groom Wedding Stuffed Animals, Nici Butterfly Spring Stuffed Animals… Because it ensures durability after a long time of use. The fur rarely falls out or peels off under the normal impact of the baby. The cotton material is absorbent, gentle and does not cause any sensitivity to sensitive skin. Mothers can be completely assured when the baby plays or hugs the stuffed animal to sleep.

Gear House would like to give mothers a little tip when choosing: Rub the fur on the skin on the inside of the wrist. If it feels rough, it is a stuffed animal made of nylon. If it feels soft, it is made of cotton. After rubbing, mothers should observe that skin to see if there is any fabric powder falling off or if there is any dye stains. If there are no signs, it is an ideal stuffed animal for children.

Pay attention to other accessories that come with stuffed animals

Stuffed animals always have other accessories attached such as eyes, noses, buttons, etc. These details, although very small, can be dangerous for babies. Especially babies who are teething. They often have the habit of putting all objects in their mouths and chewing. Therefore, choose stuffed animals with screw-on or embroidered accessories such as Nici Purple Snail Stuffed Animal, Rich Stuffed Puppet, Rich Brown Bear with Bow … instead of just glued. The screw-on details will ensure the firmness against the baby’s pulling to avoid swallowing. Mothers should also note that the edges around the details must be worn to avoid causing injury or scratches to the baby.
