Get Plush Rocking Toys For Toddlers

By Cleveland S. Martinez


That old fashioned wooden horse that rocked was an accident waiting to happen. Consumer safety regulations have induced toy manufacturers to make safer products. Parents and grandparents can buy plush rockers for kids online or at most toy or department stores.

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.



Educators and parents know that interactive toys help child development. When a kid can put a wooden puzzle piece in place all by himself, it builds self esteem. Every little success like this builds confidence. Climbing up onto a plush horse or unicorn helps build strength and coordination and develops gross motor skills. Parents know when a child plays hard they sleep well.

Children learn by doing. Climbing up on their toy pony could be their first experience with riding a pony. Pretending is another very important part of child development. Kids naturally have great imaginations. Playing and pretending are ways to expand their imaginations and good for emotional development also.

Fussy babies and toddlers can be calmed when their mommy or daddy rocks them in a rocker. Anyone who has spent time with small children realizes how soothing motion is to them. Most desperate parents of a screaming, crying child have put the little one in a car for a ride around the town. The constant motion relaxes the child and may even put him or her to sleep. Observation of small children also shows they often make their own repetitive motions to calm themselves.

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.

The holidays will be here soon. Your special little person would love a plush rocking animal. Long, long ago most little kids were photographed on a real pony that someone took from house to house for a photo op. Now you can take a digital picture of your little one on a purple unicorn and email it to all your family and friends.

Make sure the rocker you choose is age appropriate. Do not buy a rocking animal that says age three and up on the box for a two year old. It needs to fit the child. This is not like a pair of pants that he can grow into. A rocking dinosaur that is too big can cause an injury to the child. Since they are available in a wide array of animals and creatures, observe your child to determine his or her preference. Usually these toys endure and can be passed on to a little brother or sister. Happy trails to your favorite little person.
