As we write this, we’re in the middle of COVID-19 crisis. Despite all the challenges the world is facing because of this outbreak, it’s also a time to take stock and recognize those who sacrifice – even putting their own health on the life – for the sake of all of us.
Doctors and nurses are among those most at risk during these times. And really, it’s not just these times. We know they work long hours in difficult circumstances. They use skills, talents, and knowledge to help keep us healthy and safe.
Times are going to be tough for a while. But be sure to thank your healthcare professionals. In case you’d like to do that with a gift, we’ve found some great stuffed toys that honor them. They’re also a great way for children to learn how important these individuals are in our lives (and maybe help them overcome some fears, too!).
Above all, stay safe. We’ll pull through this, but it will take time. We’ll also develop a new respect for observing healthy habits (like washing our hands thoroughly and often).
Cuddle Barn Feel Good Glenn 10″ Animated Plush Bear
This great bear is all ready for rounds or surgery in his scrubs and with a stethoscope around his neck. There’s even a cute heart on the bell!
Not only is he cute and cuddly, but he also sings and dances! His song of choice is “I Feel Good” – very appropriate for his profession!
He measures 10 inches tall and works on 3 “AAA” batteries. There is a set of batteries included.
This toy is recommended for ages two and up.
Honor that special nurse with this fuzzy little bear! With his t-shirt that reads, “Best Nurse In The World”, you’ll surely let that special caregiver know how important they are to you.
He measures 8 inches tall, about 6 inches across and 3 inches deep. It’ll be great as a stand-alone gift or as part of a gift basket.
It comes wrapped in cellophane to make gifting easier (and to keep it clean during shipping!).
Prestige Medical Dr. Scrubz Bear
This doctor is all suited up to be able to do her great work as comfortably as possible!
Her green scrubs look entirely realistic and they even have a “Prestige Medical” stamp on the chest. It’ll make a fantastic impression on anyone in the medical field or their families, or anyone who cares about them!
Dr. Scrubs is her name, and she measures 10 inches tall (8 inches when seated).
The scrubs can be removed for washing or other care.
GUND Curious George Doctor Stuffed Toy
Curious George is curious and working hard to solve this outbreak and any other medical conditions that may arise!
Gund brings us this great plushie of the famous Curious George, this time dressed in a doctor’s whites. His name is stitched onto his jacket. The stethoscope is actually stitched on as well.
This toy measures 10 inches tall and makes a great piece for fans of Curious George and for medical students, doctors, nurses, or for anyone who loves someone in these careers! And it’s fantastic for children aspiring to these noble healing professions as well.
Recommended for ages 1 and up.
GUND Itty Bitty Boo Scrubs Dog Stuffed Animal
This cute little pup is in colorful paw-print scrubs and has a mask to help protect against the spread of germs. Now we won’t comment on the fact that the mask isn’t exactly adjusted right – she’s probably just making an adjustment to it, anyway. It can be adjusted a bit if you’d like, although it can’t be removed. But that does nothing to take away from the incredible cuteness of this toy!
It’s great for ages 1 and up – and anyone will surely love it. It’s small, at just 5 inches high, but is great for a shelf, a desk, or a locker. And of course, every stuffed toy goes great on the bed, too!
Wrapping It Up
Our whole site is dedicated to animals, but we appreciate humans, too. And that goes double for those who do so much to take care of us – keeping us healthy or getting us healthy when we’re sick. These stuffed toys are just one great way to show appreciation. Let’s never forget to thank all our doctors and nurses!
