Giving baby not only warmth and comfort, but enjoyment when playing with the tags. This is great as baby begins to unwind for nap or bed time. They will now lull themself to sleep, while clenching, twisting, and feeling the tags that are so much fun. Those little hands grasp those little tags non-stop!
The fleece, used to make the pillows and blankets, are a soft, SOFT touch. There are many colors and prints to choose from, and each piece can be personalized for a special added touch! They are absolutely beautiful and so comfortable you may be tempted to cuddle close yourself.

TAGGIES™ Toes are so adorable, and a delight for every baby lucky enough to be given a pair to wear, discover, and explore. If you want to see how flexible a baby can be, and how quickly they can learn where their feet are and how to grab them - Buy TAGGIES™ Toes!
Not only do these booties keep little feet snuggly and warm, they offer both a bunny, and tags to discover. As we all know, babies love faces to look at. Now, those of us who have discovered Taggies with our infants, have found they like TAGS just as much. Faces are fun to stare at, and gaze upon - smile at and enjoy. TAGS, on the other hand, are fun to look at, fun to touch, fun to feel, fun to chew on... they are FUN!

My First TAGGIES™ Book: Sweet Dreams
"This soft fabric book features ribbon tags for a child to play with while listening to a bedtime story. The fleece cover and embroidered pages offer a unique opportunity for stimulating language development while snuggling with mom, dad or caregiver. Playing with the tags stimulates tactile sensory development and social interaction."

Little TAGGIES™
"This unique children's security blanket is portable and is designed NOT to drag on the floor. With 20 visual and tactile tags around its border, contact offers tactile sensory stimulation, interactive entertainment and comfort. The different textures on the loops kept the blanket "new" to the kids who wanted to explore, but still have the security of a nice cuddly "blankie." NOTE: Available in boy, girl and neutral patterns. TIP: This can be the type of item you have as a keepsake for child."

Wristies
"This plush toy is small enough to wear around a baby's wrist or foot or attach to a crib railing, baby carrier or stroller tray. The uniqueness of each is its' own squeak or rattle. Curious infants will dangle the toys enhancing sensory stimulation and tactile development. Shaking and squeezing these toys stimulates social interaction. Each are sold individually. TIP: Ideal as a bow companion for a baby shower gift."
