Taggies Review

Kids II has recently launched some fun new toys for your little babes via their Taggies line. With countless different options from toys to hang on your babes' carseat, to apparel, to mini blankets, books, and more, there is something for every babe to soothe and play. 

These super soft toys get their name "Taggies" from the satin loop tags found around each Taggies item. Your babe will love the bright colors used to create the various Taggies toys available and the soft body will come to be your minis' new favorite comfort. From tiny babes to the toddler known for dragging his blanket everywhere, the satin tags make these toys easy to grab and so very soothing to hang onto. 

Taggies have been around for over a decade, loved and adored by little ones and the new Little Taggies is the perfect size blanket-type toy to travel with your baby for security away from home. 

"Universally, children feel calm, safe, and comforted when repeatedly rubbing a silky tag together. They love studying, playing with, and reaching for colorful, looped ribbons with various textures and vibrant patterns. Touching and putting their fingers through the tags while exploring characters and prints offers them endless opportunities for simple play and snuggle time!" - from the Taggies website. We can't say enough how important it can be for your little babe to have a security item and Taggies can be just that!

Start Your Babes Off Right with Bright Starts!

Written by Debbie

Often times, finding toys for little ones can be difficult. At such a young age, babies can't always do a whole lot and you can find yourself standing in the toy section at a store just plain stumped for what toys would be your little babes' favorite. If you could only bring them all home and try them out first! How lovely would that be? Well we can't send you home with each and every toy to try BUT we have had the privilege of reviewing lots of wonderful toys for little ones and would like to share a couple of our favorites!

Bright Starts has some seriously fun toys for little ones to play, explore, and have tons of fun! Our two current favs from Bright Starts right now are the Pretty in Pink Pull & Play Pig and the Having a Ball Roll & Chase Bumble Bee. 

Bright Starts Pretty in Pink Pull & Play Pig $8.99

The Pretty in Pink Pull & Play Pig is a soft plush toy with crinkly ears {like the noise that you hear when your babe wiggles around on the exam table at her doctors appointments} that vibrates when you pull it's tail. Your little babe will love hugging her soft little piggy and will giggle like crazy when you pull the tail to initiate the vibrating feature. Best of all? Not only does your purchase of the Bright Starts Pretty in Pink Pull & Play Pig benefit your little one for learning and fun, but a portion of all proceeds from purchases from the Bright starts Pretty in Pink line, go towards supporting breast cancer charities. 

Bright Starts Having  A Ball Roll & Chase Bumble Bee $25

The Having a Ball Roll & Chase Bumble Bee will be your babes' new best friend! This interactive toy lights up, plays music, vibrates, and rolls all around to keep your little one busy! There are two different modes to play on and 9 different melodies for your little ones' enjoyment. The Roll & Chase Bumble Bee encourages your babe to crawl after as is tumbles and rolls around the floor. You will love this toy as much as your little one does! 

We just love Bright Starts oh-so-much and had to share these FAB new toys with you! Check out the Bright Starts website for more amazing finds and "LIKE" Bright Starts on their Facebook page to keep up with all the latest product launches from this leading brand!
