My nearly 2 yo DS has a Panda Bear "Suzie" that he just wants to carry around everywhere! To the point that we have tears when I make Suzie sit on the chair while he has dinner. He has a few books that have pictures of Panda's in them, and if he sees the Panda in the book, he says "DEE" (thats how he pronounces Suzie) and runs off to his room to find her!
He LOVES her to bits. Suzie is a well traveled Panda. We did a 5 week trip of the UK and Suzie came with us.
for my 3&1/2 year old DD its anything that has 'cuddle snuggle' value - it used to be her cot blanket......she could only fall asleep if she was rubbing it on her nose. We've been through a few toys now - currently its a duck, called, wait for it, 'ducky' - lol. But when it loses its snuggle soft value it too shall be replaced......like poor rabbit, 'Harrods' the teddy and zebra.....lol
both my younger sons Isaac & Jacob have night nights.. little cot sized doonas. Isaac also has a bear he was given when he went to hospital when he split his chin open and h calls him Brave bear and Jacob has a little blue bear which was given to us when he was born and he calls him Blue bear or BLue Blue
We used to have them carted all over the house ALL the time but lately both boys leave the bears in the bedroom till after bathtime and the night nights are generally only used at bed time and when they are watching tv..
We have placed rules.. They are not allowed to leave the house unless they are sick or we are going away over night..
My 2 1/2 yo DD was attached to her pink single bed sized blanket between 1 and 2 years but she has recently not been so dependant on it and chaged to a soft teddy that she wants to sleep with.
She does still sleep with her blanket though, only I can reason with her now if for some reason its not there, I couldnt do that before.
Yep Chelsea has a soft body/hard faced pink doll named Isabella. She cant go to bed without it...and if we cant find her then we stay up all night until she is found. Heaven forbid if she gets dirty or vomitted on...its a night mare...!
Joshua had a blue teddy bear given to him the day after he was born. It was ALWAYS with him.. and oh yes when he vomited on it one day I had to sneak him into the washing machine without him noticing!!
Oskar has always had a flat cloth nappy. It started because I always had one with me for BF and chucks etc and he likes to hold it and chews the corner of it..lol. I actually think he uses it a bit for teething. The good thing about it though is that I can wash them as needed cos we have 30 of them...haha.
Tiger-Nelson has a soft fluffy puppy,he is turning 2 next week and he takes his puppy everywhere too,he loves dogs and had a collection of soft toy dogs but always goes back to the same one to sleep with,rather cute.
