Stuffed Toys

Is it safe to let my children play with my old stuffed animals?

My mom saved all my toys from when I was younger, and she recently brought them over to me to give to my kids. But I was wondering – will it be okay? The toys are mostly stuffed animals and dolls – nothing with lead paint, I am pretty sure.

They have been sitting in bags in my mom’s storage room for about 20 years. I smelled them and they smell okay, not too musty but not brand new either. Most of the toys are either stuffed animals or Cabbage Patch dolls. So, what do you think? Will it be okay?

How the heck do you hang the IKEA PS FÅNGST without making it crash down?

I just bought the IKEA PS FÅNGST for my son for toy storage. I used a hook and screwed it into my ceiling, but as soon as I put some stuffed animals in there, the hook wouldn’t support it. Any suggestions? I’m not a really great “handy woman” lol.

Here’s the situation: My two kids share a small bedroom. How do I decide what toys to keep and what to get rid?

of?
They are 11 and 5. It seems like they only play with a few things when there is another kid in the house, which isn’t very often.
The biggest problem is stuffed animals, tiny toys, and books/drawing and coloring items. Help. I have no storage space, closet is full.

Is it true that stuffed and roped dog toys are dangerous for dogs?

I have a 6 mo old puppy, and she quite aggressive, she loves to play, and tear things apart, what I was wondering is that I heard roped toys such as http://www.dogtoys.com/ropetoys.html are bad because if they tear it apart, a string or two might get stuck in their throat, and also that if they tear a stuffed animal apart, that they might accidentally eat a few of the cotton remains etc. Is this true?

Where can I buy the replacement squeekers for dog toys?

I dont want to buy a new stuffed dog toy when it is only the squeeker part that is worn out. Is there anywhere online that I can get them and just sew them into the toys he already plays with.

Are stuffed toys good for dogs?

Last christmas, after begging my mom for a long time, I got my baby as my present. This baby was my dog Marley. If you have seen the movie, Marley and Me, you know how THIS Marley is. Example: Chewed a couch to shreds… it was leather = mom not happy.

We have always known that he likes his stuffed toys that we get from petsmart for him… (stuffed turtles, frogs, and raccoons.. limb-less after a day or two)
My mom is getting really tired of the fluff from the toys and said it was a waste of money to get them if he just shreds them. I debate with he that that is the point of dog toys, right?
She says we won’t get anymore, but I keep thinking that if he has his own toys he is less likely to chew OUR stuff. Is this a good idea??

Getting stuff for a 7 year old – cuddly or sweet?

Is it appropriate/in good taste to give a 7 year old a plush toy?cuddlyncute.?
If not, what else can you get them? and what is your favourite Easter themed sweet/chocolate? Did you see the crackly type eggs? from cadbury and the lil wrapped ones that usually come in an egg with a toy but minis wrapped differently with hazelnut. Are those Ferraro Rochers in an Easter Bunny shape a rip off or are they the same price as in normal box? Is getting the same type of sweet for someone all the time weird?-example Kinder surprises but different packaging or minis instead of large.

Thanks,

-Mimo.
really? how come?

There are so many cute lil eggs for Easter. WHY?!

Dog obsessed with new toy and extremely protective of it. Doesn’t want to spend time with us or our other dog?

How should we handle this?

My 2 year old poodle has been reunited with an old friend (not really just a similar one). He has this plush bone toy we got him the other night, which resembles a lot his favorite toy as a puppy.

Now that favorite toy he had as a puppy we had to replace 2 or 3 times and when we brought our Terrier mix home well she destroyed “Bone” (thats what we call the toy) right in front of him and he was devastated and shocked it seemed.

Shortly after that they quit making bone. But a year and a half later we found a “BONE” and I thought it would be a nice present for him.

They don’t get a lot of toys because our Terrier is a stuffed toy murderer. So at first he was just happy to have the toy but now that toy is taking up all his time and attention (good for when I am trying to get things done)

My Terrier just wants to play with him but he goes off in another room with his “bone”. We want to spend time with him but if we come around he just takes his bone and goes to another sofa or room. And as of last night (3 days after having bone back) when we tried to take bone and put him up for the night, our Poodle growled at us.

Which is totally out of his character. Today when my Terrier was following him and just trying to play with him like they always do (she is like annoying kid sister really). He turned and growled at her to stay away and she took off running and hid behind me. (and she isn’t one to back down)

I tried to get him to drop “Bone”, he wouldn’t. I tried to take “bone” from him and he snapped at me. Something he has never done before. I got onto him for it. I eventually backed down though because I knew I wasn’t getting bone without getting bit. And I can’t get down and wrestle it away from him (I’m pregnant and pretty far along). So I figure he either has to sleep sometime or my husband will get it when he gets home and take it away for a few days.

I don’t want to take “bone” away for good. But my poodle has never acted this way about any toy ever in his life.

He was so happy to get “bone” back and I don’t want to take it away and break his heart but he can’t be acting like this, especially with a little one on the way.

Any advice or tips on how to make this work where he can keep “Bone” but not be so possessive of it?

Thanks
ADD: He doesn’t do this with any other toy and usually with any other toy he will give it when I say “Leave it or drop it”
But not “BOne”

Also he doesn’t care for treats or food really. He will eat at meal time but he is very un food motivated
ADD: The terrier isn’t trying to take his toy. She has little to no interest in toys anymore. She would rather lie around and gnaw on a good old bone than to take his little plush toy.

She just can’t get anywhere near him either without him freaking out
Again this behavior is only with “Bone” nothing else.

He shares his chew bones and other toys just fine. He doesn’t have an issue with food. Infact half the time we have to hand feed him to get him to eat (he has been sick a lot).

His only issue is with this Da*n toy
He has always been so good at sharing everything else but since he has had bone he has become totally antisocial

When is a the proper time to wean your child off Disney films?

My kid is 14, male, and still watches Disney movies. Now I don’t just mean he sees them on random occasions or at friends house or something. I mean he watches Disney movies. All the time. He owns practically all of them. I just decided the other day that it was time I put my foot down. It was Friday night and he’s sitting down in the living room watching the Little Mermaid with his stuffed Ariel plush toy. He laughs hysterically at practically every joke and is visibly frightened during “scary” scenes. He also provides movie commentary to Ariel and responds to her like she said something. It’s just not healthy. I’d thought he was gay for awhile, but I think this is different. I wish he were gay. This is some sort of asexual developmental disorder I can’t put my finger on. My late wife breast fed him until the age of four and I think this might have something to do with it. Please help. I don’t know what to do. I feel like I should kick his a ss for his own good.

What to do with Baby’s stuffed animals?

My 8 week old has a ton of stuffed animals. For now I have them in her crib because she is sleeping in a bassinet by our bed. However, we plan to move her into her crib in a couple weeks and I was looking for some ideas for what to do with all of her stuffed animals. I don’t want one of those net things that hangs on the wall, and I also don’t want to stuff them into the closet. Have any of you done something creative with your baby’s animals not including the pet net and throwing them in a toy box? Thanks!

Does anyone know where I can get a DOMO stuffed animal?

Hi, everyone.
Well, I’m a great fan of DOMO, and I just wanted to know if you knew where I could get a DOMO stuffed animal. Not online, please, only in stores, because obviously I don’t online shop. Thanks! Oh, and stores in Canada [because I live in Canada] would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much.

And, does anyone know where I can get Domo accessories? Like keychains, a hat, or bracelet? If you do, thank you. But I’m just wondering where I could get a stuffed animal of Domo.

Oh, and if you don’t know who DOMO is, you’re missing out! Click the link below.

Do you have a good idea for displaying stuffed animals in a little girl’s bedroom?

My 8 year old granddaughter has a large collection of stuffed animals, everything from tiny to very large. Her mother would like to be able to display these toys in her daughter’s bedroom, using something other than the “net hammock” that is available. As she still plays with them all the time, they will have to be within her reach. Thank you in advance for any ideas you can present

Where can I order a customized plush toy for only a single purchase?

I see my friend drawing a cute little thing. I wanted it to become a stuffed toy and give it to her on her birthday.. But when I search the net, they are in bulk orders. I can’t find anything where I can order only one piece.

And BTW, I’m searching somewhere I can order in the PHILIPPINES..

She received my Christmas present but did not appear ecstastic.. Why?

I order the christmas gift oversea to a girl i like and it takes 10 days to finally deliver to her. I track the item everyday and told her it will be late. Finally the report shown the item arrived.

thinking it was not yet delivered to her doorstep, I msg her that item item will be delivered to her soon. Then she replied that she had already received it and msg me that she was in a rush and forget to msg me that she received and said a thank you!

It was a bulk to care bear stuff toys and she like stuff toys. I msg her if she like it BUT NO REPLY FROM HER. I wonder why she don’t seem ecstatic after all i search for all before getting them for her.
Kind of feeling sad.
She is 20. I mean as a frenz at least should give an acknowledge reply. This is like a spring between us. The farther we pull from each other, the closer we got. however the nearly we pull each other, the fartherwe get.

i think i got screwed on the financing of my new home. i think i may need to refinance. Where do i go??

i purchased my home 2 1/2 months ago. i got it on a first time buyer 80/20 plan. i have a 2 year arm. now i’m terrified i will not be able to afford my home in 2 years. the monthly payment is already 2920. i’m baerly making it due to circumstances with my husband’s work. what can i do? is it true i have to wait to refinance?? after i bought a house i purchased a new car. i had to return the lease i had been driving but had to wait to buy a car because of escrow…borrowed a put-put for two months. i think i;m maxed out on my credit limit…does that make sense? the house is only under my name because my husband had credit problems in the past and his score isn’t very good. so everything is under my credit. for starters, i have cut back on little binges i would spend money on…eating out, toys for children, non-brand-name stuff, bulk shopping, gave up expensive hair and nail visits, no more starbucks, i dont “pick up the tab”, i really need some help with my finances.
Jamie M…how can i e-mail you?? there’s no option to e-mail you on your page…

How can I clean my vintage stuffed animals without hurting them?

I’ve got lots of Rainbow Brite dolls and other 80′s dolls and stuffed animals I played with as a little girl. I usually put them on shelves, hang them in a toy hammock, or pile them into a wicker backet in my room. Alot of them are white though and I noticed they are becoming dingy and dusty. They are over 20 years old so I can’t put them in a washer or a dryer.

Is there anyway I can clean them by hand without hurting them? I want them to look bright white again. I thought about putting them in plastic bags in the closet but I love to look at them. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

Is a fleece toy safe for a chinchilla to play with?

My daughter has a pair of fleece gloves she wears when we’re playing with our chinchilla because she’s not a fan of his occassional nibbling. Last night during playtime, she took off her gloves, instead hiding her hands from him, and he grabbed a glove and was dragging it around, playing with it. It was truly adorable and he looked like he was having lots of fun with it. When I took it away after he let go for a second, he ran after it, trying to get it back (I didn’t want him ingesting it or putting a hole in it).

If I got him (or made him) a little fleece stuffed animal and removed the stuffing and any eyes or extras on it because I definitely know they’re serious chewers, would it be dangerous in anyway for him if he ate a little while playing and chewing? I know there are fleece hammocks for chins and it can be used as bedding instead of shavings (which I’m considering), but how dangerous is it if it is ingested by them? Can tthey digest it or will it make them sick/ cause blockage? If it isn’t good, I’ll just let him play with her gloves during playtime while I’m always watching. Any knowledge on this would definitely help.
