Toys play a very important role in children's growth and development. Through toys, children can recognize and understand the world around them, and at the same time, toys can attract children's curiosity and attention with their bright colors, beautiful and peculiar shapes and dexterous activities. In recent years, more and more children like to buy plush toys. When choosing plush toys, parents should consider which material of plush toys is more suitable for children?
First of all, let's introduce a common material - PP cotton. PP cotton is a synthetic cotton fiber known as "hollow cotton" or "doll cotton". It has the advantages of extrusion resistance, easy cleaning, air drying, fast drying and fluffiness. It is worth noting that PP cotton has extremely high safety and does not contain chemical irritants such as formaldehyde and fluorescent agents. Therefore, many factories use PP cotton as a filling material for items such as plush toys and pillows. In addition, PP cotton is also easy to clean, just wash it with dish soap and let it dry. However, due to the poor air permeability of chemical fiber materials, too long use will cause PP cotton to deform or agglomerate. Therefore, it is recommended that parents try to choose plush toys with good elasticity and a certain brand awareness when choosing plush toys for their children, even if the price is slightly higher, it is also for the sake of children's health.
The second common material is down cotton. Down cotton is a kind of microfiber material made by a special process, and the appearance is very similar to down, so it is called "down cotton". It has the advantages of light and thin, good warmth and not easy to deform. Manufacturers usually use it as a filling material for plush toys and down jackets. At the same time, down cotton has low production cost, high cost performance, and is deeply loved by manufacturers and consumers. However, the disadvantage of down cotton is also very obvious, that is, it is not washable. We often find that down jackets shrink and elasticity decline after washing, which is also a deficiency of down cotton. Similarly, plush toy customization has this problem.
Finally, let's introduce a washed cotton. Washed cotton is made of cotton cloth, and has been specially treated to make the surface tone of the fabric softer, the luster softer, and reflect a bit of old material in the slight wrinkle. Clothes made of this material are not easy to deform and fade after wearing and washing, and do not need to be ironed. The high-quality washed cotton cloth also has a uniform layer of plush on the surface, which is unique in style. Plush toys made of this material are also very popular with children.
To sum up, when choosing plush toys to join, parents can consider the above three common materials. PP cotton has the characteristics of high safety and easy cleaning, but it will deform or agglomerate after a long time; Down cotton has the advantages of light and good warmth, and the price is relatively low, but it is not washable; Washed cotton, on the other hand, is characterized by softness and durability, giving it a feeling of old material. When choosing a plush toy for your child, you can make a choice according to your child's preferences and actual situation to ensure that your child can have safe, healthy and favorite toys.
