Baby Nursery Must-Haves: Jellycat Books, Stuffed Animals & More!
Getting the nursery ready for your new little addition is a very special time. Choosing the right nursery décor can seem overwhelming with so many choices. It’s hard to distinguish between products that you actually need, products that are helpful but not essential, and products that are the nice-to-haves.
Of course, you’re going to need nappies, a cot, and all the need-to-haves. That said, you deserve the accessories that will make your nursery complete, as well as special tokens your little one will have to cherish.
So, what are the nice-to-haves for your baby's nursery? Here are our top picks we think you should get for your nursery.
Your Nursery Essentials...
1. Flappy the Elephant
We love this adorable plush toy that comes to life at the push of a button. A perfect addition to your nursery so your baby can let it play and listen. Flappy's ears flap in time to commands and song. It’s an adorable singing animated plush with two different play modes. Press Flappy's left foot to play an interactive game of peek-a-boo, and the right foot to hear the song "Do Your Ears Hang Low" in its cute voice.
2. Steiff Bingo Monkey
The fabulously contemporary, Tiny Bingo Monkey from Steiff's Soft Cuddly Friends Range, is ideal for those sensory exploring little hands and wee fingers.
Bingo Monkey is 16cm / 6" tall and sewn from a super soft and luxurious tufted, beige plush, with velvet touch striped accents for his feet and inner ears. Its velvet smooth face, plus a kissable warm nose and a friendly embroidered smile add character to this little bear. His long curl ended tail adds a touch of fun. His tummy and feet have been safely and securely filled with bean bags, for that gorgeously comforting, squidgy soft feel. Be sure to cuddle him well, else you may find him swinging from the curtain rail.
3. My Jungle Book
My Jungle Book is such a treat for your baby, with a soft tie for cots and car seats and pages of fur and fun! Play guessing games, tell tales or simply squeeze those loveable legs hanging from the book. This material book comes with a frolicking elephant on the front cover, leading to the inside pages which contain various Jungle animals. The pages make an interesting 'crinkle' sound when handled and have an educational value for early learning.
4. Charlie Bear Year Bear 2021
We really have saved the best for last! Every year Charlie chooses one bear that she feels encompasses the collection as a whole. This year it's ‘Hug 13’ representing the Charlie Bears Year Bear for 2021. A gorgeously sweet design by Isabelle Lee with Charlotte Morris, exclusively for Charlie Bears.
Charlie Bears 2021 is a gorgeous 37cm/ 14.5" fully jointed bear. She has been sewn from two luxurious plush, a fluffy peachy-white long-pile and a sumptuously dense, short-pile. She has wonderfully tactile, faux sueded, stitch padded and shaded paws, whilst her decadent plumo accent is the ideal platform to show case her empathetic two-tone brown eyes and her contrasting hand stitched and shaded nose. To finish, a satin ribbon bow, with a key at the knot. How pretty!
Our Final Top Tip!
Make sure to regularly dust and wash your baby’s nursery teddies and toys. Keeping the air clean will keep your baby’s airways clear and reduce the risk of developing air allergies.
