Everyone, young or old, has their own unique makeup and the things that they find special about themselves and their interests. What makes each of us beautiful are these pieces, the peculiar and the norm, all weaved into one portrait. From the small things we like such as pizza, to the larger and more complicated things like astrophysics, whatever our interests may be they are just as much a part of our anatomy: even if we may change our minds later down the road.
A Poofin collection is a collection of yourself. We think it might be a good idea to keep it forever. And look back at who you were. And laugh a little. Or cry. Or remember people and times that changed who you were. And feel all over again that is just OK to be you. And it is, isn?t it?
There is something all together awe-inspiring about Poofin, as if it were more than a developmental toy. Through it you are teaching your children to figure out the special different things about them that make them beautiful and incredible people. You are showing them that it is okay to have those differences and that somewhere out there someone might have similar interests. In essence you are giving them that much needed boost in confidence as an individual through something fun, cute and entertaining.
So what exactly is Poofin? Poofin is a big bright Star which represents you, or your child in this case. It comes in Red, Blue and Pink. Each Poofin has a little hole in the middle where you place the soft charms inside that represent parts of your character. There is also a zipper on the back that makes it easy to take them out and share with someone else.
Well, ask yourself these questions first–What do you believe in? What makes you special? What do you like? Who are you?
Then answer these questions with Poofin Charms! These soft picture charms represent you and your fabulous life. Chances are there are a zillion cool things you like.
The charms are the neatest thing about the Poofin. Each one has an image with something you are interested in. For Judah I had chosen Pizza, Chocolate Chip Cookies, Books and a Fire Engine which are all his favorite things right now. However, if you can’t find the exact charm that fits you, you can always create a personalized charm at the Poofin Factory! This would be a great gift to your child, to help create the unique things about their personality though images you might not find in the available charms. It shows that you also find those unique things about them wonderful.
The charms are soft and almost like miniature pillows. Judah loves them best, he likes taking them out and saying them loudly and putting them back through the hole. He shares them with me a lot. Playing with the Poofin with my son made me realize how great this toy will be for little ones like him that are on the Autistic Spectrum, for those other Special Needs children that also have differences that they’re beginning to recognize. The earlier we show our children that they’re beautifully unique no matter what, the less they face later problems of wrestling with self-esteem and difficulties of feeling peerless.
Poofin has been reviewed by numerous psychologists, child development and toy experts, and, most importantly, real families. Across the board, adults observe a noticeable difference in little ones ? they feel more free to talk about themselves independently, use the toy in creative ways and are pulled away from technology to play with Poofin. We are so happy to be making a difference in children’s self-esteem. We hope that you will see the value of Poofin in positively influencing how children see themselves and relate to others.
With so many of our children in new schools this year, new grade levels and with new friends it is a relief in a way to have a developmental toy like Poofin to help them along. He’s soft like a pillow and he’s fun for a very wide range of ages, even my 13 year old loved Poofin and wanted his own Xbox Charm! Take a moment and sit with your child, look through the charms and let them show you what they find interesting about themselves, you’d be surprised. A perfect gift for a lifetime of remembering what made them into the people they will one day become.
