BuckleyBoo stuffed toys

Stuffed animals never go out of style, but sometimes you might want to shake-up a classic that has been loved by children for centuries. That’s exactly what BuckleyBoo does. It takes a classic toy and adds features that will help your child’s growth by encouraging cognitive development, thanks to the collection co-created by grandma and a child psychologist.

Each toy helps your child develop sequential learning by matching, buckling and unbuckling the series of buckles wrapped around the adorable and cuddly animals. Your child will constantly go back to the toy thanks to the cute designs animal designs, which include monkeys, lions, bears, cats, pandas and more in a variety of colors.

There are three stages of learning that helps any child between 18 months and four-years-old. The first stage is matching. A child can learn to match the vibrant patterns on each stripe wrapped around the animal. At 18 months, they can start putting the buckles together, but cannot unbuckle, so stage two creates a great way for you to interact with your child. In the third stage, the child can unbuckle by the time they are three-years-old. They can begin integrating the toy into their full world of play and fun.

The toys are available in two sizes. The 17” retails for $29.99, while the 12” retails for $19.99, making it a great stocking stuffer. You can get them at specialty and toy stores or online.
