My youngests favourite toy is her grey elephant, known as Ella. She come everywhere with us, and is especially loved by my daughter when she is sleepy or sick.

We discovered a few months back what she loves so much about her Ella. She loves to squeeze his nose. It came about when I got really sick and had, at this point, spent a few days stuck on the couch. She snuggled up to me, handed me her Ella, and said "mummy you can cuddle my Ella and squeeze his nose if you want. That will make you better". It was so sweet that she was willing to share, but it also helped me to understand what it is about her Ella the comforts her.

A teddy bear her uncle got her when she was born, she has heaps of newer toys now (shes 5) but this has always been the one to go to bed with her every night!

My 3 year old Charlotte has what may seem a strange cuddly toy but her pink and green cuddly is it. She used to have a cuddly elephant as her favourite toy but her former new born size Poncho is her 'cuddly' and she is inseparable from it. When she could still fit it she only wanted to wear it and nothing else and when she eventually was convinced that her head would no longer fit through it she just hung on to it. She says it is her snuggly cuggly and that it smells like flowers and chocolate (believe me it doesn't...) and she says it is soft like clouds. How could we possibly take it away from her! So ... not a toy as such but still a precious cuddly.

all my four kids have a special toy,my oldest has a teddy from when he was born called murdoch hes 8 and it still has to be in bed with him my other boy who is 6 has a soft mosse that he plays games with and is a bit worse for where,my oldest girl who is 5 has a teddy named lilly from her cousin lilly she takes it every where with her,and my youngest girl  who is 2 has a baby that laughs which she carrys every were and takes real special care of,and i will never hear the end of it if i dont give all there toys a kiss and cuddle to when i put them all to bed

My youngest son, absolutely adores 'Urbie' - Urbie is a preloved pink Furby toy that he claimed from the garage at my sister in laws - Urbie narrowly missed going out in the skip, and has definately seen better days, he/she is missing the soft bit that covers her beak, & has a wonky eye - so she is more Terminator looking than cuddly! 

Ive tried hiding it under the bed and under all the other toys - even the rubbish! But she always lets out little 'churp' noises so she can be found. 

My son likes to take her everywhere - she's been smuggled into preschool at the bottom of his bag a couple of times, she's been to Grandmas too often to count (Grandma even offered to find and buy him a new one, but he absolutely refused!)

She chews through AA batteries so we had to invest rechargable ones. She's not washable either - but Ive tried!

She's definately the uglyist toy in our house, but the most loved!

My toddler's favourite one is cuddly stuffed baby doll, which was given to her by her nana when her little sister was born.  Her baby spent all day with her and sleep with her too... it has survived a few times going in the bath, outside in the sand pit, that is one very tough baby!  The cutest thing is when she tries to get the baby to give her little baby sister a kiss :)

Master 2 has an elite club of favourite toys. He has them all on his bed at night-time but chooses who is going to be his "cuddle" each night. His club consist of a Tigger (slightly grubby but much loved), Ellie the Elephant (toy blankie that Mummy brought when he was born), Snoopy (the famous dog from Daddies collection), Cooks (Daddies old Mascot bear from the 1980 Russian Olympics) and the soft toy plane (comes in and out of favour dependent on Master 2's mood). The toys that don't get picked for a cuddle end up lying next to him to guard the 2 books he is allowed to keep in the bed with him at night.

P.S. If anyone knows my Husband, don't let on I told you all that he keeps soft toys....... shhh.

My boys' Gran gave them both a 'ted' when they were born.  There 'ted's' are so important to them.  My boys are now 3 & 4, and the 'ted's' have been included in many adventures.  The best thing about them is that they are machine washable, which has been fantastic for me, as one small boy has thrown up on his ted many many times!  Last winter when it snowed I had to make PJ's for the 'ted's' so that they would be snug & warm, cos a cold 'ted' would not be good!  The 'ted's' are still in those PJ's, and are now waiting for the snow again . . . with their boys.

Miss 10's favourite is a stuffed cow called 'MooMoo' (what a surprise).  MooMoo was an op shop 5 years ago - brand new and only $1 - the perfect gift for a newborn cousin.  Miss 5-at-the-time said 'Can I just hold it, oh it's so cute, oh it's so soft, can I just sleep with it one night?'  Of course it never got to the baby cousin it was intended for.

Mr 12's favourite is a stuffed Walrus called Wally, another op shop find.  On occasion it's been referred to as 'my only friend'.

Both kids have other stuffed toys, all with names and mostly married to each other's stuffed toys.  They are like an extended family and they all have their likes and dislikes which are very apparent during play.  Unfortunately they all have voices that make them sound very young and not very bright, drives DH mad.

My son got hold of a stuffed toy - a Tuatara while we were touring Rotorua and calls it Dinosaur :) From the second he got it, it has been his best friend and companion who now not only has to go shopping with us, go with him to daycare but now goes to potty too! Dinosaur goes first, then my son, Cuan. Cuan has also taken to the show 'Wipe Out' where we places the foot rest between our two couches and places dinosaur on the ground, or 'in the water' as he says, and then proceeds to jump from couch to couch and laughs a huge belly laugh when his foot touches the 'water' cause dinosaur is coming! Its amazing to watch his imagination run away with him when he plays with dinosaur and how secure he feels when dinosaur is around. As Cuan grows he involves dinosaur with him and thats just fantastic to watch....its his first real friend :)

Annabel’s favourite toy is her ‘baby’ which is a soft toy baby that has a dummy attached with ribbon, I am actually not sure if she would love it quite as much if it didn’t have the dummy lol.  When she gets tired she tries to suck on the baby’s dummy (which of course is far too small), sooo cute.  Anyway we have to remember to take her when going away or there is trouble with a capital T.

She is forever taking her on adventures with her – climbing the boxes we have stacked in he living room, or playing at her table, and she always comes on walks with us.  She also seems to be the only one that understands Annabel’s baby babble.
