MIYIM PUPPET & BLANKIE LOVIES
I used these lovies with my own son and used to recommend them to clients until the Canadian distributor closed down. At which point I was seeing so many lovies that were unsafe and too large for me to be comfortable recommending them. I decided to contact the manufacturer and have been carrying these lovies since 2013! My clients (and their Moms & Dads) love them!
I recommend only using a transitional object like these when your baby is out of a swaddle and you feel they have good control , and grip with their hands . I prefer the puppet size for younger infants (ages 5 months and up) and the blanket lovies for older infants. (although older infants may enjoy being read their favorite bedtime story with their puppet lovie!) These lovies are small and made with an organic cotton.
Please only use a lovie if you feel comfortable and your baby can change its position on their own.
About Miyim lovies:

Our safety concern begins with not just the design and testing of all of our toys and accessories but with the very raw materials from which we make our products. With normal cotton, harmful toxins are absorbed into cotton plants, the air, the soil, the water and eventually, our bodies.It is for this reason that miYim® organic cotton toys are made with safety in mind. Made from organic cotton and colored by natural eco-friendly dyes, our toys help to make your home a safe and chemical safe environment for you and your child.

Ok to Wake Alarm Clock
Is your child an early riser? A great tool to help those early risers stay in bed until an appropriate wake time is the “Ok to Wake Alarm Clock” This is one of my “Favorite Things” … This type of clock allows the parents to set the “alarm” to their desired wake time (and no not 11:00am !) so for example 7:00am. When we place the child to bed the clock can either glow orange (or you can also turn off the “night light” (which I would recommend) and at 7:00am the clock will glow green indicating that it is time to start the day. This clock is best used for children aged 3 and up but can be used earlier in some cases.
WHY IS THIS ONE MY FAVORITE? It is one of the only clocks of this type that does not glow BLUE. Blue light is known to inhibit the release of melatonin which is that hormone that is released to prepare us for sleep and make us drowsy… kind of counterproductive wouldn’t you say??
