Your shape sorter story has had me in hysterics - can we upload it on our
blog, as I have an similar tale of my 3 year old and her last doodoo blanky
that the ground squirrels stole in Namibia!

With regards to giving it up - let her take the lead. Well adjusted children
love their comfort objects for a long time and that’s fine. I think its
great for them to even take them on outings or to school in their bag. You
will know when she is ready and one day you will wake up and realize she has
moved on. My son got rid of his at 6 and in the end only used it in bed at
night - nothing wrong.

Your story is so lovely, can we send you a Lala Cd to say thanks?

Best wishes
Meg
