Playing get you benefits: top 5 anti-stress toys for children

The best way for a child to counteract stress is through play.

Antistress toys can have a tangible, though not lasting calming effect on children. This in an interview with NEWS.ru confirmed child psychologist Natalia Naumova:

"When a child plays with an anti-stress toy, presses various buttons, he encounters various interesting clicks and sounds. All this leads to the fact that the child calms down. <...> This can relax the child for a while. Therefore, if the child felt stressed, you can give him this toy, but it helps a little, "- said the expert.

Such toys are now at the peak of fashion - there are quite a lot of them, from this variety everyone can choose something for themselves. We offer you a selection of the most interesting soothing toys:
