Pocket Hug

Our Pocket Hugs are a sweet gift for the little treasures in your lives. A gentle reminder that even when they aren't with you, may they always feel your love and support.

These can be a fantastic tool for soothing your child when they are feeling worried or have separation anxiety. Heading off to school and kindergarten can be a real struggle for some kids and a pocket hug gives them something physical to hold or touch in their pocket and help them feel a little bit closer to you.

HOW CAN MY CHILD USE A POCKET HUG?

Simply pop the wooden pocket hug in your child's pocket or bag and encourage them to reach for it during the day when they feel anxious or worried. Some parents or carers give the pocket hug a rub or even a kiss before giving it to their child. Having the pocket hug near them and associating it with their parent/safe space can help soothe and regulate the nervous system and regulate the stress response.

Our Pocket Hugs come with in a drawstring bag for safe keeping and a postcard complete with a special verse and a place to write your custom message.

Being away from our little loves can be hard. Whether that's when they go to day care, school or just friends and grandparents being further away.

Pocket Hugs by Positive Minds, Open Heart can help.
