(After looking up taxidermy, I realized my question has been answered by Clive. Please ignore my post)http://www.englishforums.com/English/StuffedAnimals/zngmq/post.htm#501048Thu, 26 Feb 2009 17:19:11 GMT946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:501048Grammar Geek1http://www.englishforums.com/English/StuffedAnimals/zngmq/post.htm#501048http://www.englishforums.com/English/comments12-501048.xmlAnd I agree with Clive. It would be immediately clear whether you meant a toy or not. My children have dozens of stuffed animals, and never once have they, I, nor anyone they know felt the need to call them &quot;toy stuffed animals.&quot; A retail term for them, however, is &quot;plush toys.&quot;http://www.englishforums.com/English/StuffedAnimals/zngmq/post.htm#501014Tue, 26 May 2009 16:19:11 GMT946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:501014carenjacob2http://www.englishforums.com/English/StuffedAnimals/zngmq/post.htm#501014http://www.englishforums.com/English/comments12-501014.xmlI agree &#39; toy stuffed animal&#39; is the correct term that should be used. Because the previous one sounds kind of literal in sense and doesn&#39;t really say that is is a child&#39;s toy.http://www.englishforums.com/English/StuffedAnimals/zngmq/post.htm#483462Tue, 26 May 2009 16:19:11 GMT946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:483462Angliholic3http://www.englishforums.com/English/StuffedAnimals/zngmq/post.htm#483462http://www.englishforums.com/English/comments12-483462.xmlThanks, Susan and Clive.

However, the context would normally make clear whether you are speaking of taxidermy or of children. It&#39;s not really confusing if you say &#39;My five-year-old always sleeps with a stuffed animal in her bed&#39;.
