Pram Toys
When choosing pram toys it is an advantage if they can be attached to the pram in some way, for the new born they need to be of bright colours, and bold patterns as the newborn is unable to see pastel shades.
If the toy you choose has a clip it will enable you to attach them to the front of the pram hood above the baby's head, as you move along the toy will constantly move, this movement will exercise the eye muscles as baby constantly focuses on the toy stimulating the muscles and building up their strength.
Buggy Toy Bars
Some traditional pram toys stretch across the front of the pram, but these will not be within the eyesight of the baby until the focal length has improved - around 8 weeks.
Pram or buggy toy bars are used when baby is sitting - they fit to the front of buggies and pram seat units and offer a range of toys from simple rattles to more complex toys that require hand, eye and finger, thumb skills.
