Baby toys are far more than entertainment: in the first months, every texture, sound and movement stimulates a child’s sensory, motor and communication development. A good toy accompanies the baby as they discover the world, gain coordination and lay the foundations of language.
At logopedicum we select educational baby toys with therapeutic and pedagogical criteria: sensory pieces, fine motor games, stackers and sorters, musical toys and Montessori-inspired material, from brands such as Little Dutch, Janod, Plantoys, Lilliputiens, Haba or Miniland. Safe, BPA-free materials designed for hands that are learning to explore.
Here you’ll find a wide selection to accompany your baby from birth through the first year and beyond. If you’re looking for a newborn’s very first toys, take a look at my first toys.
Why choose educational baby toys
During the first year, babies learn through their senses and movement. The right toys support hand-eye coordination, grasping, object permanence, attention and cause and effect. Toys with sounds, textures and elements to name also stimulate early communication, one of the reasons speech therapists and educators recommend them so highly.
Types of baby toys you'll find
A varied selection covering every area of development:
- Sensory stimulation toys: balls, boxes and mats with textures, lights and sounds.
- Musical toys: music boxes, rattles and plush radios that stimulate hearing.
- Fine motor games: stackers, sorters, shape classifiers and pull beads.
- Montessori material for babies: object-permanence boxes, simple sorters and inserts.
How to choose a toy by your baby's age
Each stage calls for a different stimulus. From 0 to 6 months, high-contrast toys, rattles, teethers and textures work best for oral and visual exploration. From 6 to 12 months, as the baby sits and crawls, stackers, object-permanence boxes and cause-and-effect toys take centre stage. From age one, sorters and imitation play take over.
