When we are young our stuffed animals take on a life of their own, they are special friends we can snuggle with and take along for play and adventure. Caring for them is part of the empathic element of childhood growth that can be beautiful when nurtured. That was the experience most parent testers conveyed to us regarding Lilly Tikes Make Me Better Mitts. Watching their kids show concern about an “owie” that their plush friend suffered was heartwarming and sweet. Taking on the role of veterinarian delighted little ones. The toy comes with a stethoscope, a booster shot, a cast, name tag and a collar. When your child puts the stethoscope up to Mitt’s heart they can hear the heartbeat which is very exciting. When they pet Mitts head he will bark in happiness and when they give him a booster he will whimper. The toy is very soft and struck our testers as being extremely well made. Testers felt that this was good price for a nice amount of sweet role playing.
