Lamaze Cuddle & Squeak Koalas Review
The Lamaze Cuddle and Squeak Koalas are ideal for babies aged six months and over. It is unsuitable for children younger than this because it does have parts that detach. It is a bright and colorful toy that has a lot of features for young children to enjoy. It features two soft koalas, a mother with a baby in her arms. The softness of the toy means that children will enjoy cuddling up to it during the day and at night.
The baby can be separated from the mother and can be used as a teether and it is also a squeaker toy. It can be played with independently from the rest of the toy and because it is a smaller size it can be taken out with your baby when they are in their pushchair. The small size of the baby koala means that young children are able to hold it by themselves and make the toy squeak which will keep them interested.

There are a number of different textures that can be explored on this toy. The ears and the feet of the mother koala are made from a crinkly material which makes a noise that children will enjoy exploring. There are also ribbons that children will be able to pull on explore. The construction of the toy means that these can be pulled quite strongly without coming away.
The bright colors of the toy means that it is very attractive to young children and they will enjoy trying to grab hold of it when it is held in front of them. It also has a number of contrasting patterns, particularly on the feet of the mother koala and this can help develop your child’s vision. As the koalas are so bright, your child will be able to see the toy in front of them as this can encourage them to try and reach out for it.

As your child gets older they will enjoy taking the baby out of the mother’s arms and putting it back again. This gives them a chance to practice and develop their fine motor skills. It will also help to encourage imaginative play in older children when they play with both toys separately as they can make the two toys interact with each other.
The toys can be washed in a machine as long as it is done on a delicate wash. It should not be placed in a tumble dryer though so you may need to leave it for a day or two before giving it back to your child to allow it to dry completely.
Overall this is a very good toy for helping your child’s development, particularly in terms of fine motor skills and vision. Babies will be attached to the colors on the mother koala, and the sounds that they can create when playing with the crinkle ears and feet. They will enjoy making the baby koala squeak when they squeeze it in their hands and the teether can be a source of comfort when their teeth start coming through.
