Children's Soft Toys - More Than Just Something To Play With

Most of us can remember a time in our early childhood when the world seemed as if it had fallen in around us, for one reason or another

. It could have been something simple like falling out with a friend - something that at a young age always feels like the end of the world, even if it is forgotten about 24 hours later - or it could have been something more serious than that.

And the quickest way that our parents found to end our woes? More often than not they warmly handed us our much loved cuddly toy. Soft toys are as much a part of childhood as training wheels on a bike or mittens tied to coat sleeves. Quite simply, they are something all children remember as they grow older.

The undoubted familiarity and comforting capabilities of a soft toy mean that they will always stay in your mind and heart long after the day that you were told you were too old to have one anymore. Their presence to a child is positive and reassuring, and anything that makes a child feel better is of great value, even though to others the object in question is worthless.

Children have plenty of toys to choose from, many of which are more 'cool' than a soft toy, but none of the others available offer much in the way of personality and friendliness. Due to their softness and their floppy arms they are far more huggable than any other toy, and they act in much the same way as a comfort blanket for many children. In fact, look at the most favored childhood toy of anyone now grown up and you are likely to see it a little threadbare due to its use as a comforter.

One of the most wonderful things about a cuddly toy is that it is safe enough for a child to have in bed with them as they try to sleep. Having a favorite toy to cuddle and talk to as we wait for sleep to come along is something that, as a child, we all value.

That they have remained cherished through out the generations, gives little room for argument against soft toys being the number one toy. They have a classic appeal and it be would surely be a mean parent who felt that their child didn't need one. Every child needs one, because every child has tough lessons to learn - lessons that are made that little bit easier by having a reassuring and loving presence beside them throughout.
