How to Choose Your Baby's First Plush

A first plush should be safe, soft, and sized so your baby can hold and explore it with confidence.

  1. Check safety features: Look for embroidered eyes and securely stitched parts, which reduce choking risk and are better for infants.
  2. Consider size and grip: Smaller bodies and pronounced ears or limbs make it easier for tiny hands to grasp and carry.
  3. Feel the fabric: Choose a plush with a consistently soft surface that stays gentle after washing and repeated cuddles.
  4. Care and cleaning: Follow the sewn care label; if unspecified, spot clean with mild soap and a damp cloth to preserve shape.
  5. Registry and gifting tips: A mini plush is a thoughtful shower gift and pairs well with a blanket or board book on a registry.
