From the minute your child is born, they begin using their senses to find out about the magnificent world around them. By picking toys that can help them encourage the development of this understanding and help children explore their five senses.

The dark and contrasting attention-catching spots all over Sophie la girafe’s body provide visual stimulation and she soon becomes a familiar and reassuring object for baby. SMELL The singular scent of natural rubber from the Hevea tree makes Sophie la girafe very special and easy for your child to identify amid all his other toys.
