Colorful And Fun Plush Rocking Toys For Toddlers

By Cleveland S. Martinez


The iconic wooden rocking horse of yesterday has been replaced by a safer and softer variation. Induced by consumer safety requirements toy makers created a safer product. If you have a special little one in your life visit some websites to see what is available in plush rocking toys for toddlers.

This toy line today comes in all shapes and colors. Ponies and horses are still popular among the potty trainable set, but the selection is amazing. A big fluffy lamb, a pink pony, a green dinosaur or a multi colored butterfly are a few of the creatures that can rock with your child leading the way. Little ones will have a great time riding on their rocking creature.



Interactive and educational toys are an important part of child development. Every time a small child masters a new skill it builds self esteem and is a small step towards some independence. The gross motors skills required to get on the toy and off the toy build coordination and strength for the toddler. Keeping kids active helps regulate their sleeping patterns.

Real learning takes place by doing. When a toddler climbs on top of his toy unicorn, it will probably be the closest thing he has experienced to riding a horse. With their vivid imaginations, kids can make the simplest thing fun. Pretending, and learning to distinguish between what is real and what is pretend, is good for emotional development.

Parents of infants have an appreciation of how motion is soothing to a fussy child. A horse that rocks back and forth is naturally pleasing to the child. Many kids will make repetitive motions instinctively when they try to calm themselves. This is another reason that generations of kids have loved these toys.

The newest item on public playgrounds is some sort of riding animal firmly secured to a large spring. You will see little ones gravitate towards this item partially because it may be something they can do by themselves. A two year old may not be able to climb the steps to the top of the ladder to slide down the slide. They may not be able to get into a swing and make it go all by themselves. But most two year olds can climb up on a rocking animal and ride off into their own world.

Holiday season is just around the corner. This is a great time to get this rocking animal for your favorite little kid. What a photo op this would be for grandma and grandpa. The cutest little child happily hugging their new friend. Get your phone and take a picture, then post it on social media. Everybody loves a cute kid picture.

Be sure to buy a plush rocking horse or unicorn or dinosaur that fits the child. A dinosaur that is too tall could cause an injury. The selection is fun and colorful. Find one that you think will suit the preferences of your little one as he or she rides down that imaginary road.
