Close To Heart

Mar- 9-2004 » Filed Under: Link of Interest

Katy sent this link to me and I thought it might interest those of you with children. Close to Heart sells dolls that are designed to keep your loved ones close during deployment. According to the website:

[The dolls] are available through Close to Heart to help military families (especially children) cope with their separation from loved ones. The Huggee Miss You dolls allow you to give a hug to the one you miss until you can do it for real. Just insert a favorite photo of your loved one in the clear plastic sleeve on the face, and the doll can represent that individual. The books describe the military lifestyle from a child's perspective and include topics such as deployment, PCS, and training exercises.

Here's an article featuring the dolls.
