If you’ve ever looked closely at a plushie and noticed the shiny little eyes — those are called safety eyes.
They’re commonly used in handmade plush toys because they’re secure, durable, and give that cute, expressive look people love.
But here’s what really matters π
Are they safe for kids?
✔️ Safety eyes are designed with a locking backing that makes them very hard to remove
✔️ They are generally considered safe for older children and display plushies
⚠️ However, no plastic safety eye is 100% risk-free for babies, toddlers, or pets.
Because of this, we take extra care with our plushies:
π For younger children, we may use embroidered (stitched) eyes instead
π We always aim to balance cuteness and safety
π If a plushie contains safety eyes, we’ll clearly note it
π We always recommend supervising young children and pets during playtime.
Our goal:
To create plushies that are not only adorable, but safe for your home and your little ones.
