Children love large stuffed animals and other animals because they’re soft, plush, and often seem to envelop the child, creating a feeling of getting a hug. Kids just adore lugging these companions along wherever they go. It’s rarely a comforting time when police are called to someone’s home or to the scene of an accident. The child may be scared and afraid to go with the officer. Having a soft stuffed dog or cat can help the child and give them something safe to hug and hold onto so they can get through this traumatic event. Psychiatrists and psychologists often have stuffed animals like large stuffed bears in their offices for similar reasons. Many times these doctors are trying to determine whether or not a child has been abused or neglected. Having something handy which provides comfort to the child can enable the child to relax enough to open up and receive the care and treatment they need.
