A importância dos brinquedos de bebé para o desenvolvimento

It´s a real joy to watch babies sitting on the floor while they move and play with their toys. It is exciting to see how their faces light up when they press a button and see that a light switches on or when a toy plays sounds.
 
At this stage of development, baby toys play a crucial role in healthy growth.

Baby's toys and his first discoveries

From birth, babies are sensitive to their environment and to everything that stimulates their senses: smell, taste, hearing, touch and sight. From the very first months of life they start to learn about the world around them.
 
It is true that babies' first toy is their body, and it is only after playing and exploring that their hands and feet become interested in toys.
 
With toys, babies will explore and learn each new shape, size, sound and texture.


 
These stimulate their motor, visual and cognitive skills by developing essential life skills such as:

  • Sensory skills;
  • Awakening their curiosity;
  • They learn the "cause-effect" relationship;
  • Strengthens fine motor skills;

 

The truth is that the most important thing in play is not the toys, but the time parents spend exploring and playing with their children.
 
Play, as well as stimulating your baby, provides them with pleasant moments of fun and interaction with their parents, creating emotional bonds that are important for their growth.
 

 

And because the first months of life are unforgettable we leave you some suggestions of toys ambarscienc
