A stuffed toy is a toy made of cloth material, and stuffed with a soft material. In various parts of the world and various cultures they are known as plush toys, plushies, snuggies, plushies, snuggled animals or stuffed animals, soft toys or cuddly toys.
We’re sure all of you can remember a loving stuffed animal that you have or at one time. These soft toys are often very close to us and offer comfort in lonely times. Since they are quite common, we assume they have always been around.
The very first stuffed toys weren't made professionally like the ones made today in factories in bulk. Instead these were made by hand by the domestic workers and they used materials such as cloth, cotton and straw. Over time, new materials were used to better the quality of these toys.
Another fact is that stuffed animals actually came from the idea of stuffing real animals that had been killed. Although less popular now, it is a still a process used by professionals to preserve the bodies of hunted animals.
The stuff toys we see today were first introduced in 1880. These were then sold as commercial products in the market for the first time and were completely manufactured in the German nation. Some classic collectibles of the time which are still popular today are Raggedy Anne and various characters from Disney tales.
You may think they are just petty toys but they have a great value in the collectors market. So if you have any lying around that you think are useless, think again! You might be able to earn a couple of good bucks by selling them now or pass them onto your future generations.
Everyone knows that kids these days are more into their flashy electronic gadgets but they still hold a soft spot in their hearts for soft toys owing to their life like appearance which are able to induce feelings of friendship and care in children.
What makes them even more popular and attractive is that they are usually in the shape of cute animals or popular cartoon characters. So don’t be surprised if your kid is overjoyed at the thought of receiving his favorite Ben10 or pokemon soft toy as a gift.
It is a good idea for the first toys your kid plays with, to be soft toys as they are one of the safest toys out there. Since they do not have any hard and sharp corners, they are least likely to hurt your kid. Because they are made of textile, they are also hard to break or damage.

As mentioned before Funzoo Toys is the top soft toy manufacture in India and we only employ the best possible technology in the market for our carefully crafted toys and ensure manual examination and handcrafted detailing at various steps, to make each toy unique, beautiful and exquisite.
Now let us lay down the entire process of how soft toys are manufactured in India by our dedicated workers. It is not a uniform process and varies according to the size of the toys. So the first step is placing some plushies material on a flat surface.
Then, using a specialized cutting mold, the fabric is cut into the various shapes of the stuffed animal. This is the step that is performed in a large quantity. The material we use is only of the highest quality and gentle to the touch.
The forms are made by specialists who trace the patterns made by the designers when designing the toys. So you see how those beautiful and flawless plushies start their life as simple drawings on paper.
When the pieces are cut, they are sent to the department of needle embroidery where a special digitalized machine embroiders the appropriate details on tens of pieces at a time. The resultant pieces are then sent on to machines for sewing. This is usually a handcrafted step performed by employees with sewing machines. Then the next group of workers lifts the pieces and flips them to arrange them on the correct side.
Then the toys are sent for stuffing. For the toys that are smaller in size such as palm sized or smaller than arm’s length, stuffing is done by hand. But the bigger plushies such as those which are life sized are often stuffed with a machine. In our various types and options we use high level synthetic stuffing. For some special toys, we only use organic materials.
The finished stuffed toy animals are then put on weighing machines in our manufacturing unit. If they don’t weigh as much as they should or are heavier, they are sent back to the stuffing department to make them of the required appropriate weight. A final line of sewing is done.
At all our manufacturing units, toys go through the expert vision of Quality Control Analysts who ensure that all the parts are correct and there are no imperfections. Then they are usually put through a metal detector to be sure no sharp metal objects or other foreign materials have infiltrated the toys.
Finally, the plushies are packaged and flown out to the stores from the manufacturing unit where your children get to greet them for the first time. We manufacture a variety of stuffed toys such as teddy bears, dogs, pandas, tigers, cats, bunnies, monkeys, penguins and lions along with cartoon characters and human like toys.
With more than 250 selected, experienced and expert workers in our manufacturing bases, we produce more than 6000 pieces each day, which go through a rigorous process of quality checking to ensure quality, safety and perfection.
