I want to know if the eyes are stiched or buttons. Buttons would not be safe for a newborn or baby under 3

They are buttons but are very securely attached. They are flat to the fabric and glued down around the edges. I don't see how they could be removed to choke on except for hours and hours of extensive chewing and sucking. They are really on there well!

I would say no. She won't be able to press the button. Our granddaughter was 18 months old when she got hers, and she loved it.

I'm almost positive she has button eyes. I remember commenting on the buttons. I gave it as a gift and the little girl loves it!

Not suitable for newborns. My grandson started using his at 6 mon. A lot depends on the size of the child.

No, this doll does not have "open and close" eyes so it is safe even for a baby.

Amazon now has a warning that this product presents a choking hazard for children under 3 YEARS of age. I could see how toddlers could chew off bits of the foam and choke. So possibly OK for infants but watch out when those teeth come through.

I try to purchase items with stitched eyes. It is a safety thing with me. Buttons can cause choke hazzards. Hope this helps. The sock monkeys are darling.

Cloth for sure -- not sure about the eyes (because she now resides with my granddaughter in another state) but I think they are buttons.

Yes! My youngest daughter just turned 2 and she is still wearing these every day! They adjust really well. I was worried about her getting too big for them because she is in the 90th percentile with height and weight... But I don't even have to use the buttons further out. Just remember that they won't absorb all that great without leaking until they have been used and washed maybe a good seven times.

No. Buttons are very small. I have small hands and the controls are not easy to manipulate. If she has bad eyes stay away from this one.

I would love to know the answer to that too. My baby loved his but it broke quickly and had very sharp metal inside. It's definitely not safe for children.

The eyes are hard. They aren't glued on, but affixed through the material. My daughter has had it for 4 yrs, they are still on dispite many washes and rough play.

It has button eyes. We always used it in supervised settings until our little one was old enough for soft toys with button eyes.

I actually gave this to a 3 year old and don't remember if it had stitched on eyes or plastic. If you are concerned about the baby swallowing them, don't worry. Gund builds very safe toys.

I purchased for my 2yr old grandson and its a soft doll. You can remove the diaper and shirt, but its velcro, no buttons. We've had no problems and this doll rarely leaves he's side!

I can't say yes for sure, but I believe the eyes are buttons. I gave it to a little one year old girl for her birthday, so I don't have that exact doll to look at. I have other Ann's in my collection, and they all have the button eyes. I must say though, the eyes are extremely well secured if you're worried about it. Hope this helps.

Your child will definitely be able to use it. There is no "right-click". It is one button that works as a "left-click". The size is good for small hands too.
