Finding a Jellycat Toy Your Baby Will Love
It's hard to stop at one Jellycat. The characters are full of personality, the fur is famously soft, and before long you'll have a companion that rarely leaves your baby's side. If you're choosing your first Jellycat toys or buying a gift, these are the things worth thinking about.
-
Choose for their age - If you're shopping for a newborn, look for soft toys for babies with embroidered features and designs labelled suitable from birth. These details are made with the youngest babies in mind, so you can gift with confidence.
-
Think about size - From tiny companions that fit little hands to oversized favourites made for big cuddles, size changes how a toy is used. A smaller Jellycat toy is easy to pop into the pram, while larger designs make a cosy bedtime companion alongside a baby comforter.
- Match it to its purpose - A Bashful Bunny or Bartholomew Bear is made for cuddles during naps and bedtime. If you're styling the nursery, the playful Amuseables collection adds plenty of personality to nursery shelves and bookcases. Buying a gift? A favourite character or collectable design is a keepsake that's just as special for parents as it is for their baby.
Keeping Your Jellycat Toy Looking Its Best
The best adventures usually leave a Jellycat toy well-loved, so it's only natural they'll need a little care from time to time. Most baby soft toys are best spot cleaned or gently hand-washed. Some can also be machine-washed, so be sure to check the product page and care label before cleaning. After washing, the fur may look a little different, but a gentle fluff once it's dry will help bring back its soft, cuddly character.
