But, b Burs to Toy Suggestions For Small Children If you're buying toys for the infant up to one year old and the toddler under two, here are some tips to remember. ' .Infants naturally put. every thing into their mouths so be careful to select smooth, wash able, non-toxic toys toys that are larger than the child's open mouth. Squeezeable rubber, or slick non-to.xic, plastic-covered toys are best. Action-'toys such as cradle gymns, swing , toys and colored beads can be attached to the crib, and help the tiny hands learn to grasp. Gay colors attract the infant's eyes and hold his interest. ' . For the toddler, toys that en courage his muscular coordina tion are so right. Those toys that develop his handling skills and give impetus to imaginative play. 5 Toys he can push, pull, rock or cuddle are his favorites at this age. Noise makers, tinklers and squeakers fascinate him, too. Furry animals that can take a tubbing, soon become bosom companions, and blocks he can build with and then collapse with a mild crash will keep him amused! ' check your law enforcement ag ency as to restrictions, first!
