We love our Glow Dreaming, such a handy device. Helps eliminate other noises in the house with the white noise, the diffuser diffuses oils and I love on the new one how you can operate it from the app on your phone

What a great toy and tool to have, to help big or little people destress. It can be used anywhere. it satisfies all the tactile need that a person on the spectrum may have.
Such a good buy for my child. She suffers from anxiety, this has helped when she squishes it. Plus she loves everything avocado. Thank you.
Keeps my food warm or if I have a fruit salad at school it keeps my fruit nice and not squished up
Would recommend broadly sheet wings waterproof bed pad as those little accidents keep the mattress dry . Easy to machine wash

These are fantastic pilots caps. Breathable fabric, very cute patterns, and the fit is fantastic. My little one looks so cute in this print.
