Toyland Pink and Green Worry Monster Plush Soft Toy, 9 Inch

Why we make it

Here is a monster with one job and a good appetite. In pink and green, nine inches tall, it waits for the note your child has written about whatever feels scary today. In goes the paper, across goes the zip.

We think of it as a friend with a pocket. Fears about the dark, a wobbly friendship, a test: they all fit. Writing a trouble down and handing it over can ease an anxious mind, and the plush is there for the hug afterward.
