Choosing The Right Electronic Toys​​​​​​​ For Your Child

Toys can offer children much more than meets the eye. While traditional toys do foster development, they can fall short on fun and  fail to take your child’s play experience to the next level. Electronic toys give your child the opportunity to grow, learn and have fun with interactive features which may not be otherwise available in older or more basics toys. Make sure you choose the right electronic toy for your child with these tips:

Avoid second-hand and hand-me-downs. When it comes to electronic toys, you’re better off with new purchases. Hand-me-downs from friends and family may be cost-effective and have sentimental value, but usually don’t meet safety standards. They’re also likely to be worn out from playtime, which makes them more prone to breaking and becoming hazardous.

Make sure it’s not too noisy. Electronic toys can be as loud as a car horn, and while mama may seem to have an even bigger of a problem with loud toys than baby, loud toys can contribute to hearing damage if held very close to the ear – something we just know a child is likely to do as they’re playing.
