Worry Eaters are an innovative solution to help your child deal with fears, troubles and woes.

This is especially good for non-verbal children.
The parent or carer can then retrieve the note or drawing in the Worry Eater’s tummy, and talk to the child about it, and help them come up with solutions.
What’s more, Worry Eaters are nice and cuddly, and great for bedtime snuggles. Not just for children – we all have one too! Based on the animated series by Gerd Hahn.
