Jacques the Peacock is a brightly colored, high contrast, soft velour toy made by Lamaze.  The bright contrasting colors and patterns are designed to visually stimulate a baby from birth on.  There is a mirror for individual peek-a-boo or parent/ child peek-a-boo.  Jacques the Peacock also has auditory stimulation with a squeaker, rattle, and crinkle noise makers.  This toy is soft and cuddly, the ideal bed-time buddy or learning toy.

Pros:

• Jacques the Peacock comes with a Lamaze link for easy attachment to strollers, car seats, and diaper bags, which make this toy great for bringing along.
• Jacques offers both visual and auditory stimulation through the attachments of a rattle, mirror, crinkle noise maker, and brightly colored, patterned fabrics.  All of this makes for a great learning toy that will appeal to your child at various stages of growth and development.
• Jacques has a friendly face that babies find comforting and amusing.
• Jacques the Peacock is a soft toy that helps to sooth babies at bed-time.
• This toy is light-weight enough for most little hands to hold and manipulate with ease.

Cons:

• Tail consists of hard and large pieces that are difficult to bend and are not easy to manipulate for some babies under 6 months old.
• There are no stretchy or springy limbs. If your child is into interactive toys, this may not provide the type of stimulation that he/she is interested in.
• There are no rubber surfaces to aid in teething, only the harder textured feathers of the tail.
