Baby Beanies – Reasons Babies Love It

By: Abhishek Agarwal
The beanie baby is filled mostly with beans besides the usual stuffing and hence it got its name. When the toy was born most of the competitors were sure that these toys were not meant to last but to their disappointment it was not what happened. The beanie babies became an instant hit in the markets.

Originally Ty Warner had created nine characters and these are officially called as the first nice baby beanies. Squealer the pig, Cubbie the bear, Chocolate the moose, Flash the dolphin, Legs the frog, Pinchers the lobster, Patti the platypus and Splash the killer whale were amongst the first nice official baby beanies. There are many collectors who have the entire set and initially the baby beanies were sold at just $5.00 a piece. Each baby beanie has a heart shaped tag on its ear, which contains a small poem that will help introduce itself to its new friend.

Since then there have been many new lines that developed in order to expand the baby beanie family so the number of beanies existing currently is not exactly known. The most famous beanie amongst the others was the traditional teddy bear. Its basic pattern was retained and just different colours were changed in order to make a new family. In addition to that each of these teddies were given a unique name. These beanies are usually used for commemoratives like on the fourth of July. The Princess of Whales is also a commemorative collectors item.

Initially the baby beanies were shaped like animals. The famous dogs, cats, hippopotamuses and pigs were the most common ones. They were designed and colored to please the eye. Each one of it had its date of birth and most importantly they all had the short poem.

A frenzied collection of the baby beanies started in the year 1996 and it became a sudden craze. As a result of this Ty Warner took away some of the old baby beanies from the market. This helped him tremendously in the marketing and sales side of his products since many people bought the baby beanies in wholesale assuming that future value of the baby beanies to be high. However, like all other fads that drop as fast as they rise this too was forgotten and the investors who got them on wholesale did not achieve what they expected.

But in spite of the fact that the fad died down long ago the baby beanies still continue to live as all babies love soft toys, which they can easily bite, have a grip on and cuddle, and baby beanies have proved to be the ideal thing for this. When people buy baby beanies they don’t necessarily buy them all from the same family since they can be appreciated even otherwise. It is said that a large collection of baby beanies can tell the kind of personality that the baby or the giver of these cuddly toys have.
