Breathing Plush Sleep Companion | Soft Light Up Stuffed Animal For Calming Bedtime Routines

The idea behind a breathing plush is that children copy what they are next to. The toy rises and falls at a slow, steady rhythm, and a child holding it tends to fall into the same pace without being told to, which is the same principle behind the breathing exercises adults use to settle down. It gives a restless child something to do with their attention at bedtime other than resist it.

A soft glow comes with it, warm and low rather than bright, enough to take the edge off a dark room without lighting it up and undoing the point. The plush itself is soft and normal sized for cuddling, so it works as an ordinary comfort toy during the day and switches into its sleep role at night. The motion and light are quiet, with no ticking mechanism and no sudden changes.

Adult supervision is required. Batteries must be fitted and secured by an adult and kept out of reach, since cells are dangerous if swallowed. Never place this or any plush toy in a cot with an infant, and follow the age guidance on the packaging. Check regularly for loose seams or exposed components. For a calmer bedtime, buy it now.
