This puppy is more than a snuggle-ready companionit's a tool to help kids find calm. Backed by evidence-based research, the silky-soft weighted stuffy from Mindful & Co provides a firm tactile sensation that, like a hug, stimulates the release of serotonin and dopamine to help children when they feel overwhelmed. For added comfort, the pup can be microwaved to provide warmth on chilly nights, or cooled in the freezer to soothe bumps and bruises.
