There's nothing funnier than a baby just learning to roll over. They'll be on their tummy playing with a toy and suddenly flip over. They're so surprised that their toy is now covering their face that it's almost like the have a new toy. Their legs are jerkily kicking, their mouth is wide open and their arms are flailing around like a windmill. They're having a great time and letting you know all about it!
Want to know what's much less funny? This same situation but played out with a hard, heavy toy. Don't ask me how I know this...
There are some great soft handmade toys out there, and I have found one of the sweetest. It's a soft
handmade fabric truck from
Mommy Luv. For $25 you'll get a cuddly truck your baby can hang onto and never smash themselves in the face. Well, they'll certainly try, but at least it won't hurt.
Mommy Luv also has some great
soft blocks to load up the truck with. As your baby gets older she'll love putting "things into other things" and then taking them out again. A wonderful way to learn this skill is with soft toys which won't hurt her -- and won't hurt you either when you step on them in the dark in the middle of the night.
So head over to
Mommy Luv and grab a soft toy for your own child or as a gift. She has several fabric choices which will likely make choosing just one very difficult.
