Step by step
- 1

The two teal inserts are what give Little Hug its gentle weight. - 3
Unzip the pocket
The pocket is under the collar. - 4
Slide the insert in
Slide each insert into place and zip the pocket closed. - 5
Pop it on
Little Hug sits over the shoulders. - 6
Clip on the Octopop
Something for busy hands to hold.
Making the first try a calm one
Pick a calm moment
Let your child see it, touch it and try it at a calm time, not in the middle of a tricky moment. New things feel easier when they're familiar.
Let them lead
Some kids pop it straight on, others want to hold it or carry the Octopop around first. Both are fine.
Add to your calm kit
Little Hug comes with an Octopop. These clip-on tools give busy hands something different to fidget with.
