Breathing Bear Soothing Otter Plush Sleep Toy 30cm

Breathing Bear Soothing Otter - Gentle Sleep Companion for Babies

The Breathing Bear Baby Soothing Otter Plush Doll Toy is designed to create a calm, reassuring sleep environment for babies and young children. Combining soft plush comfort with soothing sound, gentle light and a realistic "breathing" motion, it helps little ones relax, settle and drift off more easily. At approximately 30 cm in length, it is sized for cuddling in the cot, pram or on the sofa, while remaining easy for parents to handle and store.

This plush companion features calming music and sound effects that can support bedtime routines and nap times. A soft, dim light built into the toy provides a low-level glow that is suitable for dark rooms, helping reduce fear of the dark without disturbing sleep. The belly of the otter gently moves up and down in a slow rhythm that mimics relaxed breathing, offering a steady, comforting motion that babies can watch or feel as they cuddle the toy. The combination of tactile softness, rhythmic movement, gentle light and soothing audio is designed to support sensory regulation and relaxation.

The exterior is made from soft, child-friendly fabrics that are comfortable against delicate skin. The cute bear-otter character, shiny tail details and expressive face encourage bonding and imaginative play during the day, while the calmer functions support rest at night. Internal components are enclosed within the body of the toy, and access to the battery compartment is via a zipper opening, helping to keep small parts out of reach during normal use.

Operation is straightforward for caregivers. For one-mode styles, a switch located on the left foot activates all functions with a single press. To install or replace batteries, unzip the back (or bottom, depending on style) to access the compartment, insert three new 1.5V AAA batteries, and ensure the internal power switch (if present) is in the "ON" position. The toy is then controlled from the left paw switch. Batteries are not included and must be purchased separately. If the toy has been compressed during transport and the abdominal movement appears weak or inactive, gently tapping the abdomen can help restore the breathing function. Slight colour variations may occur between the product and photos due to lighting and display settings.
