Why do car travel toys sell so well?
When you go for a long drive, how do you amuse yourself? Do you turn up the radio, have a favourite playlist, or listen to an audiobook? Most of us find that car journeys can be a bit dull, so we need some entertainment. The same is true for babies - especially when they are sat in a rear-facing car seat, and are unable to look out of the window at passing traffic, countryside, or anything else remotely interesting. That’s where the ingenious Car Travel Toys from Taf Toys come in.
What are the benefits of car travel toys?
These travel toys feature all kinds of interesting things to offer babies something to stimulate all their sense, with textures, sounds and lights. Most of them feature a clever baby mirror, which allows the driver or passenger to check on the baby from their seat. Ingenious! These toys are like mini activity centres - offering a multi-sensory experience for babies that should keep them happy even on the longest of drives.
Which car travel toys does Baby Brands Direct stock?
Budding drivers will love the Taf Toys Sounds and Lights Car Wheel Toy. The steering wheel clicks as you turn it and there’s even a gear lever, which will delight any mini Lewis Hamiltons. With plenty of buttons to press, lights and sounds, this is one fun ride! The Penguin Play and Kick Car Toy has a very clever feature, especially if it’s nap time. A remote control lets an adult switch between playtime mode and soothing mode, so they can encourage the baby to have a rest. If baby’s awake, they can use the kick pad to activate the music and lights, learning about cause and effect and exercising fidgety legs at the same time. The Music and Lights Play and Kick Car Toy, meanwhile, has lovely soft toys for babies to grab. They’ll love the rattling owl and jingle bell cloud and have fun kicking the kick pad to activate the twinkly lights and gentle music.
Developmental benefits
Fine and gross motor skills are given a workout with these toys - from grabbing the soft toys, rattles and crinkly features, to kicking the kick pads. All skills that they will need as they grow, to learn to crawl, walk and eventually hold a pencil. Babies will ‘chat’ to themselves in the mirror, encouraging language development, and work on their hand-eye coordination as they reach out and touch the toy.
