The silly season is almost upon us, and it’s time to write your list and check it twice.  

If you’re looking for some inspiration, the team at IMC Toys have some super fun suggestions for the younger members of the family. 

Uniquely soft to the touch, redefining Baby Dolls The Be Loved Babies are redefining the baby doll experience, by putting the ‘real’ in realistic. The Be Loved Babies are a world-first design that emulates the feel of a real baby and have ‘skin’ with a uniquely soft touch. 

Their skin and naturally articulated bodies, invite natural interactions from children, encouraging them to nurture their baby doll, lovingly cradling and squeezing their cheeks, arms and legs as they might do  

a real baby.  

Be Loved Babies’ soft skin and squishy bodies will inspire cuddles and imaginative playtime that feels so close to the real thing. For the child who loves to play mummy or daddy with their dolls, Be  

Loved Babies gives the opportunity to foster a nurturing, baby care experience. Recommended for kids 18 months and up, Be Loved Babies RRP $69.99 are available from Big W, and all good toy stores. Fluffy Pooches that respond to you! 

The new interactive Baby Paws Love & Care Labradoodle is a pooch that plays, acts and sounds like a puppy! Standing at 29cm high, this clever pooch reacts like a real doggie does, making noises and sounds – in fact, they’ve got 15 different audio reactions.

 We know puppies get hungry, so this one has a feeding bottle, and they love it when kids feed and burp them like a baby. When gently tapped on the back or bounced up and down, they’ll react with a variety of different happy puppy sounds, giving kids the opportunity to learn how to care for their puppy.  

The Baby Paws Love & Care Labradoodle comes with their own swaddle, which folds up into a  backpack, so they can be carried everywhere you go. And like real puppies, this one loves to have fun - take them out of their blanket, toss them in the air, and see how they yip with excitement!!!!

Each Baby Paws Love & Care Labradoodle has a dummy which puts them to sleep when popped in their mouth. As they sleep and snore, kid’s will delight in seeing and feeling their peaceful pooch’s tummy’s move up and down like a real puppy! 

Suitable for kids aged 18 months and up, Baby Paws Love & Care Labradoodle RRP $69.99 is available at Big W and all good toy stores.  

A happy start to the day with Morning Routine Bella 

The newest addition to the superstar Cry Babies range arrives in Australia just in time for Christmas!  

Cry Babies Morning Routine Bella is designed to help small children get  ready for the day, offering claps and dancing to show her delight as she  completes her routine. She uses the magic of technology to encourage  and support children as they play and learn. Bella makes 25 sounds and  reactions including crying sounds, plus a melody! 

There are three routines to complete with Bella’s interactive accessories… ♥ When you feed her, you will hear eating sounds when her spoon is  placed in her mouth. You can also pretend to clean her face and hands with  her towel after her meal.

♥ After eating, it’s time to brush her teeth using her toothpaste and toothbrush.  Put some pretend toothpaste on the toothbrush and start brushing her teeth and you will hear brushing sounds.  

♥ The last step of the routine is to brush Bella’s silky hair with the comb. You will hear brushing sounds when you brush her pigtails.  

After each routine, Bella will be so happy that she will clap her hands. And when Bella has completed her three routines, she will dance too. When Bella cries, her beautiful big eyes light up with hearts! Sigh! 

Bella is a 34cm toddler doll dressed in the cutest dress with wings and matching shoes and she comes with six interactive accessories that help with her routines – a dress, a comb, a towel, a toothbrush, toothpaste and a spoon.
