I think that it is important for a little one to have a lovey or object of security. My boys never used a pacifier or bottle for security, but a couple of them have had little security object. One of my boys loved to carry around a little stuffed animal with him. I thought it was so very cute and liked that it made him feel safe and comforted. 

We recently received the cutest little stuffed elephant from Snapdragon Fortress. This is a nice little etsy shop. I love to shop from Moms working from home, and this 3 sister team is great! Not only do they carry natural hand-knit toys in 100% wool and 100% cotton, but they also carry natural wooden toys in a variety of wood types that are finished with all-natural beeswax wood sealer, as well as handmade paper dolls and original watercolor art prints for children’s rooms.

My little guy has been carrying his little elephant around and playing with it quite a bit. When my 3 year old first saw the elephant sitting on the floor he looked up at me and said, “Mommy, are you going to view that on your bog?” I thought it was so cute! 

Both my 3 and 1 year olds love stuffed animals and this elephant has definitely been through the ringer with them. I have to say though that it is still all in tact and looking great! Very nice product.
