Stuffed Animals and Dou Dous: The First Attachment Bond for Your Baby

Stuffed animals and cuddly toys are fundamental elements in a baby's emotional development. They function as "transitional objects," a key concept in child psychology that describes that first companion who provides security and calm in the absence of their parents. Beyond their play function, a stuffed animal or cuddly toy is a source of sensory and emotional comfort. Therefore, the choice of material is crucial; we opt for cotton and other natural fabrics for their softness, breathability, and hypoallergenic properties, guaranteeing safe contact with the baby's delicate skin.

Tips for choosing the ideal plush toy or cuddly toy

Safety is paramount. Make sure it doesn't have small parts that could come loose, such as plastic eyes or buttons; always opt for embroidered details. The material should be natural and washable. For a newborn, a soft, lightweight comfort blanket (dou dou) is perfect because you can infuse it with your scent (by sleeping with it one night) to enhance its calming effect. From six months onwards, a manageable-sized plush toy will be a great playmate. It's highly recommended to have a spare to avoid laundry day drama.

Frequently Asked Questions about Plush Toys and Dou Dous

  • How should you wash a stuffed animal or cuddly toy?

    Most of our cotton plush toys are machine washable on a delicate cycle with cold water and mild detergent. We recommend placing them in a laundry bag and air drying them to maintain their shape and softness.

  • From what age is it safe to use a dou dou?

    A dou dou can be introduced from birth as a companion in the crib (always under supervision and following safe sleep recommendations), as its flat and breathable fabric minimizes risks.

  • What is the real difference between a plush toy and a dou dou?

    A dou dou is primarily a flat, lightweight comfort blanket designed for comfort and sleep. A plush toy has more volume and a more defined shape, geared towards both attachment and symbolic play and interaction.

  • Why is it important that it be made of cotton?

    Cotton is a natural, breathable, and hypoallergenic fiber. Unlike synthetic fibers, it doesn't overheat the baby and drastically reduces the risk of allergic reactions or skin irritations, which occur when the skin is in constant contact with the item.
