My little one, just three years old, has been sick since last Thursday. With the swine flu scare so prominent in the news, you can bet I’ve been watching her closely. Her sickness began with vomiting and a fever, which subsided, only to be replaced by a cough, a runny nose, and some serious crankiness.
While scanning the Internet for “stress relievers” today, I came across this little gem. Oh, how I wish he’d been living here these past several days, especially when Bethany complained about her tummy hurting. And how great would this have been years ago when my (now) teens were small!
About 12″ high, the Hot Hugs animals (the Hot Hugs Dog is also available)are made in England and feature removable — and cleanable — covers. The inserts are made of 100% cotton and are filled with natural Cotswald wheat grain and pure lavender and chamomile essential oils. Isn’t that a breath of fresh air, with all the chemicals our children are exposed to on a daily basis?
Just think of all the ways your child will be able to use the Hot Hugs Lion:
- Cuddling with on a cold, stormy night
- Feet warmer
- Tummy soother
- A traveling buddy on a car trip or plane ride
- Something familiar while staying at a friend’s house
I don’t know about you, but I’ll be picking one of these up as soon as I can. He’ll be a great friend to have around!
