Give Kids a New BFF – Dream Pets to Help them Sleep Easy
I remember when I was a little girl, I use to make a barrier of my stuffed animals around my body for “protection” each night before I went to bed. I don’t know why, but it always seemed to bring me great comfort and peace when falling asleep.
With that said, I always had one stuffed animal that was my favorite, a stuffed Holly Hobby doll. She was given to me by my dad and I treasured her dearly. Having a special doll or pet to help put kids minds at ease and sleep better is something that has been around for decades. Dream Pets is today’s answer to a best friend! Let me give you a little bit of the backstory that brought Dream Pets to fruition in 2018!
Dream Pets originated as collectible miniature stuffed animals. Made of velveteen and filled with willow sawdust, manufactured in Japan beginning in 1957 by Japanese toy designers Tochigi Mongi and Tomy for R. Dakin & Co. By the end of 1979 there were over 2,000 different characters.
Avid collector and Dreamer herself, Paige Nichols held on to her Dream Pets from her youth knowing one day she would bring them back to life in her own vision. Fast forward to 2018 and that dream is now a reality! Larger, softer plush Dream Pets are here to stay.
With 20 pet options to choose from, you can find the perfect friend or friends for your little ones. My personal favorite is the Dawn Le Fawn deer! Each pet comes with their eyes closed or nearly closed, encouraging your little one that it is time to rest and dream peacefully with their Dream Pet at their side.
Each pet is surface washable and it approximately 9-12″ in size. They are super-soft, plush and will give your little one a BFF for years to come.
You can start a new tradition today. Get Dream Pets for your little one, collect them all, and watch them grow with their Dream Pets. One day, they can pass them on to their own children.
