July here at Baby Jack & Co is dedicated to the everyday heroes who protect and serve our nation. That means THREE loveys need our attention! The Flag (for Military) Police, and Firefighter Lovey Collections highlight these brave men and women while also staying true to the Baby Jack & Co brand foundation of having educational basic shapes and sewn-shut tags for tactile play. Keep scrolling for ideas on how to fully immerse your #babyjackfan in a day of fun with their own Learning Lovey!

Seek-And-Find Game

The very first way to play with these Learning Lovey’s are through their own seek-and-find design. All you need is the lovey to start an engaging and fun educational game! Within the Flag Lovey, you’ll find stars to count (both the points and the quantity!) and stripes on the other side. This lovey is perfect for introducing early math skills! The Fire and Police Lovey’s both have letters and numbers for your little one to find, along with emergency vehicles and related symbols. “Can you find the siren?” “How many wheels do you see?”

On-The-Go Adventure

The seek-and-find game is great for on-the-go fun as well as at home, and where better to take your hero lovey than to a Fourth of July parade or to tour your local police or fire station? You can reference the lovey while out and about, plus the best part of taking your Learning Lovey on the go is that it instantly becomes a keepsake for a memory of their adventure. When they cuddle their lovey and play with their lovey, they’ll remember the time they spent celebrating our country with their first fireworks, or when they were able to sit in the police cruiser with the friendly policewoman showing them around!

Themed Treats

A snack and dessert is a daily staple around here, and there are some incredible themed snacks out there! Celebrate the flag lovey with a flag fruit pizza to match. Decorate cupcakes with your little firefighter and policeman. Here is an adorable Fire-themed tutorial to follow: Firefighter Cupcakes and Cookies

Bedtime Story

When the day is finished, we like to wind down with a bedtime story. Using a Learning Lovey at bedtime will help your child feel comforted and remember the fun and educational memories that composed their day! A book that we love to use with these Everyday Hero Lovey is Superman! This book is exciting, fun, and a great way to begin the discussion of Super-Heroes and Real-Life Heroes who protect and serve us every day! Using manipulatives while reading is also a proven way to help further grasp concepts and ideas while calming down with the tactile touch of the pages and minky-soft backing.
