Heading out to the shops? Running some errands? Or just getting some fresh air? Then the best pushchair toys can help keep your little learner entertained while on the go.
The best toys for their pram or pushchair really come into their own when trying to keep your toddler interested and immersed while in their stroller. Along with helping to entertain them while on the move, many of the best pushchair toys on today's market double as sensory toys, and come with a whole host of development benefits.
Think: colourful features, teething elements, mirrors, crinkly textures and interesting fabrics that can help your little stroller make sense of the world around them. While other pushchair toys are kitted out with engaging activities to complete. All of which can help boost their sensory stimulation and teach your baby the basics of cause and effect. Pretty good, right?
But where should you start when it comes to adding a pushchair to to your collection? Baby and sleep coach, Nicole Ratcliffe of Baby 2 Sleep says: "For younger babies, having toys that may dangle down in front of them so they can hit them, grab them or make sounds can be really helpful. The same goes for toys that have a sensory element to them, so crinkly fabrics, bright coloured soft toys, and toys with parts to chew on to help with teething can be nice, or toys that play music."
As your baby grows, Nicole recommends still looking out for toys that come with similar sensory touches but in book forms, with eye-catching pictures and sounds that will attract and keep their attention. If possible, you'll also want to find pushchair toys that clip onto your buggy. Otherwise, you can rest assured that their toys will literally be thrown out of the pram!

Do babies need pram toys?
Pram toys aren't a necessity, but they sure are a 'nice to have' as they can help keep little learners entertained while out and about.
'They can be really helpful when going for long walks to keep your baby entertained,' baby and sleep coach, Nicole Ratcliffe, of Baby 2 Sleep, tells us. 'They are also great for helping babies develop their gross and fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination. If you are walking for the purposes of a nap, you may choose to use ones that play white noise to help aid the sleep, especially if you have a baby who startles easily.'
