Colorful And Fun Plush Rocking Toys For Toddlers

By Cleveland S. Martinez


At one time every kid had a little red wagon and a rocking horse. That horse was not up to the safety standards of today. Most likely it caused a few bumps and bruises for small kids. Thanks to current safety regulations the newer models are softer and safer. Plush rocking horses for toddlers are easy to find and come in all types of animals to spark the imagination of your toddler.

The horses have been reinvented with unicorns, dinosaurs and lambs. Kids who saw elephants at the zoo or the circus can have their own plush elephant at home for rocking back and forth. The color selection includes just about every color imaginable, and active toys are a great way for toddlers to have fun.



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.

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.

When infants are fussy they are often calmed with mommy holding them in a rocker. The motion is soothing. Sometimes parents of infants and toddlers will take their crying little one for a short ride in the car. Again, the motion is soothing and often effectively induces a nap. Small children like motions they make under their own steam too.

On most playgrounds you will find a riding creature or animal that is attached firmly to a large spring. Toddlers often gravitate towards this item because they instinctively know they might be able to get on the bouncy playground animal all by themselves. The top of the steps to the ladder may be too high. Then the child spies this item that they can climb onto and jump up and down. The motion is natural to the child, and he or she feels proud of the accomplishment.

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.

When making your purchase be sure to get one that is size appropriate for your child. The toddler should be able to get onto the elephant, bear or lamb all by himself. If the dinosaur is too tall, the child can get a big bump on his head when he falls. Every kid has an opinion, such as their favorite color or their favorite animal. Be aware of their preferences when you choose the rocking creature. With any luck it will be around for another, younger sibling or cousin. Rock away little rocker.
