Ever wonder how to measure stuffed animals? I didn't know there were different ways to measure them myself. But these guidelines can be very useful when you are buying on-line and can't touch the plush animal "live and in person." It is always useful to keep a ruler or measuring tape close to your computer so you can see exactly how large 14 inches is!
Here are a few guidelines so you will know exactly how large a plush animal is:
If the animal is in a sitting position - the legs sewn and attached in a sitting position, it is measured from the top of the head to the bottom of the rump.
If the animal is standing or in a cuddle position - which means the legs are not sewn in a sitting position and when held up the legs hang down so that it can be sitting or standing, it is measured from the top of the head to the bottom of the feet.
If it is a rideable animal, measurement is of the length - nose to base of tail.
Just a few tips to ensure that you are not surprised at the size when your plush animal arrives!
