Sometimes it's hard to get your little one out the door without both a favorite stuffed animal and a favorite blankie (and really, aren't you taking plenty of other gear already?). Well, those clever and thoughtful folks at Stephan Baby have come up with the perfect solution for parents and little ones alike: cuddle buds. These ingenious little pals are a fabulous combination of a stuffed animal and blankie all rolled into one. Cuddle buds are made of super soft sherpa plush; the blankie portion measures 18 x 18" and is trimmed with smooth satin to provide baby with a variety of delightful tactile experiences. Cuddle buds have floppy arms simply made for hugging, and their sweet, expressive faces are all embroidered for baby's safety. Of course, little ones have been known to be a festival of urps, blurps and blats, so thank goodness cuddle buds are machine washable and machine dryable. Since 1987, Stephan Baby has been dedicated to fine quality, unique and heartwarming gifts that celebrate the magic of baby's first year. The Stephan Baby family invites you to discover their inspired collections of blankets, gift sets, charming apparel and accessories, beautiful keepsakes and oh so huggable plush animals, available on amazon. All Stephan Baby products are cpsia tested and approved.
