Stuffed Seahorse Plush Toys

This Stuffed Seahorse Toy is in fact a male seahorse who is carrying 3 baby seahorses in his front pouch. Female seahorses lay their eggs into the male's pouch so he can care for the eggs until they hatch. So this beautiful plush toy is not only cute and cuddly but also educational too. This is one of the most realistic plush seahorse toys that I have seen.

Seahorses are often bought for young children, especially babies and toddlers. Many parents like their children to have stuffed animal toys as gifts because they can start to get their children familiar with the world of nature at a very young age. And seahorse toys fit in very well with a nautical or sea-life inspired nursery too.

I love this vibrant orange and blue seahorse plush toy which can be attached to a crib or a stroller for a baby or young toddler to engage with. Did you know that young babies have a hard time distinguishing between colors unless they are very different shades - so bold colors are more exciting to young eyes. The colors are ideal to suit a boy or a girl so you could purchase this one ahead of the child being born.

Fisher-Price Ocean Wonders Soothe and Glow Seahorses come in blue and pink. Parents rave about these gorgeous plush toys which make perfect playtime pals and night-time companions for babies.

The Ocean Wonder Seahorses make soothing, gentle ocean music and sounds when cuddled. Fisher-Price have added volume control so parents can adjust the volume so it is louder for daytime play and quieter for naps and night-time.

Parents swear by the calming nature of these Stuffed Seahorse Toys and the fact that they do indeed lull babies into a peaceful sleep. As a parent, I remember all the sleepless nights we had with my little girl during her baby and toddler years. How I wish I'd had a toy like this to help calm and soothe her when we just couldn't.

What great stocking stuffers these little seahorse toys make. These are perfect small gifts for children and also for those who collect all things seahorse. I know plenty of adults who enjoy their stuffed animal plush collections too.

I love the cute shimmering Beanie Babies Seahorse. When you get a Ty Beanie Babies toy, you know you're getting a quality toy at a very affordable price. This one is sweet for a boy or girl.

1) It is male seahorses who give birth to the baby seahorses. Females lay their eggs into the male's front pouch. The male carries these eggs until they hatch.

2) Seahorses are slow swimmers so they prefer to inhabit places where they can easily hide in cracks and crevices so they can avoid being eaten by larger fish.

3) The seahorse has a tiny mouth and sucks up food like tiny shrimp and plants almost like sucking through a straw.

4) Seahorses like warm and shallow waters.

5) A group of seahorses is called a herd.
