Lamaze Fifi The Firefly Baby Toys & Gifts for Ages 0 to 1

Fifi is adorable, and she was a big success with a very young recipient. Probably best for 3 months +. I do wonder why Amazon has priced the female firefly higher than the male (Freddy). The toys are almost identical, except the colors. Fifi is more pastel. This gender-based pricing reminds me of the dry cleaner , who charges more for "ladies" shirts vs men's .. even when they are identical in style, size, design, etc. The toy itself is great, the kids just seem transfixed by these wide eyed bugs and they grab onto the crinkle-wings and other "appendages". I've given four Freddy dolls and one Fifi as gifts.... I think they're a little smaller now than they used to be ( or maybe Fifi is smaller than Freddy?) but the children still love them. The smaller size may be less intimidating to very young kids. It keeps them fully engaged ... It's really amazing to watch how absorbed they become with their new little "friend." Great for the car, in restaurants, anywhere where you want to keep the little ones occupied, entertained, and quiet. I especially like how the toy continues to intrigue the child as he or she develops... Black and white shapes for newborns, colors, squeaky sounds, tactile responsive materials, a mirror, and even a teething ring. I've been told repeatedly that Freddy has become a favorite toy. As for Fifi, I saw with my own eyes that when she was first unwrapped, she seemed to be a big hit. A clingy 2 month old who never lets her mom take a break didn't even notice she was gone for ten minutes once Fifi joined the mix. That's some toy! It's well thought out, well made, and fun. Highly recommended.

I don't typically write reviews i just leave start ratings. Let me start with the fact that i always pay full price and no one has asked me for this review, i just thought this one needed one and you and your little bundle of joy would really appreciate it. 1st things 1st. In a world where it seems quality is 2nd to volume of sells, this company, Tomy definitely puts quality first. There are features that you may not realize this toy has so I will try to break them down for you 1 by 1.1. It is much larger than the pics show. It measures around 12 in x 13 in across.2. It has a different array of textures across the body section3. The legs are tied in knots to create a hard feeling against the soft body (even though they are fabric) giving your little one a new sensation.4. One of the upper wings has a flap with what seems like eyeball holes for your child to look through and when you Lift the flap it is a plastic mirror that seems very durable.5. There is another wing with a squeaky ball in it.6. The colors are brilliant and will captivate your little one.7. There is a pocket in one of the bottom wings that holds a tethered teething ring in it.8. The back is all black and white contrast striped and polk a dots.9. There is a large snap ring at the top to hang on car seat, swing etc...10. The bottom has 2 rings for the little one to hold onto, teeth on our whatever.11. There are 3 little flaps of fabric on the inside of the top right wing that are all just different textured flaps. Obviously they didn't have to add that but there fact that they did speaks volumes about the integrity and quality this company stands behind.Nothing in this toy is second rate. I can honestly say that this is the best toy we have so far for our little one! I feel like this company put a lot of research into early child development stimulation research and packed this toy full of those results.Way to go Tomy. I will always recommend you to any of our friends with children. Keep up the good work and thank you for the wonderful toy.

This was actually the third Lamaze company toy we purchased for my daughter, starting with Jacques the Peacock when she was about a month old. She adores them! At a month she could really only look at them but if you shook them like they were flapping their wings or flipped them back to front (b&w side to color side & vice versa) she would smile really big at them. She also liked when you would put her hand on the squeaker and help her make the toy squeak. Now at three and a half months old, she reaches out and bats at them, she now has the dexterity to grab Fifi's rings and pull on her, turning her this way and that. She's tried the teething toy in the pocket but she's not done more than that with the teether, so I can't say how well that works. But she likes looking at the toys, she likes that they rattle or jingle (in Fifi's case) and she's likes when you squeak them at her. The different patterns and color contrasts, makes them easier and more interesting for your baby to see. And each toy has so many different sensory things for baby to explore. Fifi jingles, has a squeaker, crinkle paper wings, and clacker rings attached to a stretchy cord. Plus they each have a ring to attach them to a play yard, a stroller, an activity mat, basically wherever your baby goes, the toy can go to and you won't have to worry too much about losing them. I will be purchasing more of these toys for my baby and probably as baby gifts in the future too! Can't say enough good things about these toys!

Fun toy! Has lots of features that entertain our little one like a bell rattle and teether. Super cute!

Was recommended this by my friend and I'm very surprised. The toy is much larger than I thought, which is great to get my baby's attention at 2.5/3 months. There are also lots of sensory points and my baby especially loves the plastic circle noise. We have not yet started to reach for it, but due to the size I can see how it would easily be grabbed once my baby hits that developmental point. The price point is also very reasonable which was a bonus

Love this toy for my baby! Great mix of bright colors / high contrast black & white. Super durable. I clip it onto the stroller, or car seat, even the side of her crib! Love that is vibrates when you pull! Keeps baby engaged.
