Promotes Well Being

Your baby will become attached to their sheepskin toy comforter because it’s a natural fibre with excellent therapeutic properties.

• Sheepskin is a natural fibre that breathes, insulates, and regulates body temperature by either releasing moisture from your body to cool it down, or trapping air particles when you’re cold to warm you. Sheepskin acts like a natural thermostat, regulating your body’s temperature.
• Sheepskin fleece against your body will activate your blood circulation and promote your immune system, supporting you to relax and regenerate.
• A baby’s skin is delicate, developing, and learning to regulate their body temperature, making sheepskin and wool fibre perfect against their body.

When your baby sleeps with our flat sheepskin toy, they will settle faster and sleep for longer, hence nourishing their body and helping them to grow and develop. This leads to a happier, more balanced baby with a healthy appetite.

Sheepskin promotes well-being.

Benefits of Fleece Fibres

During the tanning process, the fine, soft wool-fibre is fixed to the leather in the sheepskin. This fusing of fur and leather ensures that all the benefits are maintained in the wool-fur fibre, keeping the sheepskin in its most beneficial state.

• Sheepskin contains lanolin, a substance found in human skin, which helps to heal sensitive, or inflamed skin, or rashes.
• Sheepskin fleece is hypoallergenic and is excellent with skin allergies.
• Sheepskin contains excellent tactile responses and therapeutic properties.
• Research has shown that babies who have sheepskin fleece against their skin are less likely to suffer from asthma as they get older.
