What are the advantages of plush toys?


Compared with other toys, plush toys seem like have a unique charm that people from toddlers to 20-year-old ladies are all fond of them. So, what are the advantages of plush toys?

Plush toys can actually bring comfort, delight and a sense of security to babies, to whom the texture of plush is one of the most important factors why they are reluctant to drop their plush toys when sleeping, and feel anger and upset if they lost their plush toys. Sometimes we may notice that after the birth of their little brother or little sister, some children are always carrying their plush toys to almost everywhere, even at the dinner table. This is because to some degree, plush toys can fill the hole of insecurity and losing attention from parents. Besides, according to psychologists, that soft, warm feeling of touching plush toys can enhance children's personal development of emotional health.

Apart from a sense of security, plush toys can also promote babies' tactile sense. When babies are touching their plush toys, every inch of their epidermis and tactile corpuscle will feel the delight brought by the plush.

Because the distribution of human's tactile corpuscles (contact receptor) of fingers are quite intensive (With the age increasing, the density of tactile corpuscles will decrease.), and the contact receptors connect with the brain, constantly stimulating the brain with electrical signals is good for one's cognitive ability and response capability. This has the similar function with beans picking training, only plush is finer.

Nevertheless, no matter how comfortable plush toys are, hugs from parents are incomparable to children. Even though plush toys are helpful in children's emotional development, compared with the sense of security and love given by parents, such help may seem like a tiny rowboat floating on the sea. So, take more time to accompany with your babies. If parents really can't squeeze out some time in certain situations, plush toys will be a temporary substitute to ease children.
