那么，毛绒玩具，实际上将给孩子带来什么？

So what will the stuffed toys actually bring to the children?

在美国心理学家Harry Harlow的实验中，实验人员把一只刚出生的猴宝宝抱离了母猴，放在一只笼子里单独喂养。实验人员在笼子里给猴宝宝做了两个“妈妈”。一只是金属丝做成的“妈妈”，经常给猴宝宝提供食物；另一只是绒布“妈妈”，在笼子的一侧一动也不动。让人惊讶的是，猴宝宝只有在饿了的时候才走到金属丝妈妈那里吃食物，其余的大部分时间都靠在绒布妈妈身上。

In the American psychologist Harry Harlow experiment, the experimenter took a newly born baby monkey away from the mother monkey and put it in a cage and fed it alone. The experimenter made two "mothers" for the monkey baby in the cage. One is "mother" made of metal wire, which often provides food for the baby monkey, and the other is the "mother" of the flannelette, which does not move on the side of the cage. Surprisingly, monkey babies only go to metal mothers to eat food when they are hungry, and most of the rest depends on the mother's flannelette.

安全感

Sense of security

毛绒玩具等毛绒东西，其实能给孩子带来愉快和安全感，接触舒适，是儿童依恋的重要部分。我们常常能见到一些孩子晚上睡觉前一定要搂着毛绒玩具、或者一定要盖着毛绒毯子才能睡，丢掉了毛绒玩具，或者盖了其他布质的被子就会烦躁睡不着。我们有时也会发现，某些大宝在弟弟或妹妹出生后，总喜欢抱着毛绒玩具到处走，即使吃饭也不愿放下。那是因为毛绒玩具能在一定程度上，弥补孩子缺失的安全感。

Plush toys, such as stuffed things, can actually bring pleasure and safety to children, and comfort is an important part of children's attachment. We often see some children have to hold a stuffed toy in the evening, or have to cover the plush blankets to sleep, lose the plush toys, or cover the other cloth quilts to be irritable to sleep. We sometimes find that some Dabao always like to walk around with their plush toys after their younger brother or sister is born, even if they do not want to eat. That's because plush toys can make up for a child's lack of security to a certain extent.

另外，经常接触毛绒玩具，那种柔软而温暖的感觉，心理学家Eliot认为，接触舒适能促进儿童情感健康的发展。

In addition, the soft and warm feeling of stuffed toys often comes into contact with the psychologist Eliot.

触觉发展

Tactile development

除了安全感，毛绒玩具等毛绒东西，能促进年幼孩子触觉的发展。当孩子用手触摸毛绒玩具，细小的绒毛碰触手上的每一寸细胞和神经，轻柔感给孩子带来愉快感，还有利于儿童触觉的敏感性。

In addition to safety, stuffed toys such as stuffed toys can promote the development of touch of young children. When the children touch the plush toys with their hands, the small villi touch each inch of the cells and nerves on the hand. The soft feeling brings the children a happy feeling, and it also helps the sensitivity of the children's touch.
