Because many manufacturers release their models in the form of bright, attractive figures for children: animals, cars, etc. Unfortunately, and the price of such "toy" inhalers is quite high.
Sometimes a brightly colored body of the device or a funny picture on it to attract the attention of the child and cause in him some confidence in this unit.
