Description

Promotes: Self-acceptance

Trying new things can be scary. Yak's story teaches children that it’s ok to take risks and help them understand that it's ok to not be perfect at something the first time they try it.

The fear of making mistakes can stop us from even trying and fill us with self-doubt. How can we feel confident when we are less than perfect? Come with Slumberkins' Yak in this interactive board book, as she learns that she is good enough just as she is and reminds them that they don't need to be perfect to love themselves.

Note: This is an updated cover of the Yak Board Book.

Questions? We’re here to help.

Are Slumberkins safe for infants?

We are big believers in promoting safe sleep, and in sticking with the rules of creating a safe sleep space. For that reason, it's key to remember that if your baby is under a year old, you should avoid putting any item in the crib that may be a SIDS risk while unattended. Not sure if a particular toy is safe for your baby? We always recommend checking with your baby's healthcare provider. 

We intentionally designed our Slumberkins without any small, detachable plastic pieces. Due to length of fur, our ultra plush fabric products are not suitable for infants or any children under 3 years of age.

All of Slumberkins are safety tested and ASTM certified at the highest level, which is paramount in this product category of children's toys. 

For additional information onproducts containing our Ultra Plush Fabric please read our safety guidelines HERE.

What are Slumberkins made from?

Our Slumberkins are made of the softest silken fabric. Slumberkins are 100% polyester and stuffed with hypoallergenic polyester fiberfill.

Where are Slumberkins made?

We are partnered with highly respected global production partners in different areas of China, Vietnam, Mexico, and the US. We are a part of ICTI's (International Council of Toy Industries) ethical toy program and only work with vendors who are a part of this group and compliant with the ICTI requirements which are regularly audited. If you would like more information please reach out to our customer service team at hello@slumberkins.com.

What is the difference between a Kin and a Snuggler?

We find that the preference for “body type” on our product varies by family. For some, they may start with a “Snuggler” – the flat lovey-style creature – for infants and babies before eventually graduating to a “Kin.” Kin’s are more of a traditional stuff animal body style with feet.

What age range are Slumberkins for?

Slumberkins can be fun for all ages! The best time to introduce a Slumberkins creature is as a baby shower gift. Reading, talking, and singing to infants has proven beneficial to growth and development. If you’re new to Slumberkins, we find that the sweet spot of our age range is 0-4 years old, but reading-aged kids continue to benefit from the lessons and stories as they grow. Finally, research shows that the inner voice is set for kids by the age of 7! This means that instilling a positive self-talk track is critical during their early development.

How do I care for my Slumberkin?

As with any product intended for your child we suggest Slumberkins should be washed prior to giving them to your little one. Machine wash using cold water and lay flat to dry. Wash as needed. DO NOT use fabric softener or dryer sheets or dry on high heat, as it can damage the fabric and cause extreme matting. DO NOT allow the Ultra Plush Slumberkins to become matted. Wash item and gently brush out fabric to remove knots or discard. As with any plush, minky material product, the original softness will change over time with washing.

Are Slumberkins machine-washable?

Yes! Machine wash using cold water and lay flat to dry. Wash as needed. DO NOT use fabric softener or dryer sheets or dry on high heat, as it can damage the fabric and cause extreme matting.

Where do you ship to?

“Sprite has been a trusted friend as we have began navigating life without multiple family members. Sprite is loved by my daughter so much she requested to keep her in her backpack when a classmate sadly passed last month.”

KAITLYN H.

“Thank you — this has been a godsend. I used the Sprite and book for my 7 year old autistic daughter. It brings her comfort and peace. She loves to snuggle with the fluffy at night. The resources that can be downloaded are also valuable!”

EMMA.

“When my sister-in-law passed away I knew I needed to purchase the Sprite grief pack for my nieces. Also I reached out to customer service and they answered with a personal email and were very helpful. Thank you Slumberkins for all you do!”

    One of my daughter’s favorite books

    We love this book! My daughter is extremely perfectionistic and this is a favorite of hers to read to help with those feelings. She most enjoys the affirmation and the self-reflection questions in the back. She told me she wished all the Slumberkin books had questions since she enjoys answering them so much!

    The tool I have been looking for.

    My 4 year old struggles with perfectionism. I have been looking for a tool to help her understand that she doesn't have to be perfect, and mistakes are inevitable and good to learn from. This book is *perfect* for that and teaches the lesson in a fun with with a cute character that she can relate to

    Much Needed Addition

    I chose this book with both my children and my students in mind. Accepting mistakes and imperfections is a huge part of how I teach and parent, and Yak has helped my son in particular to feel like it's ok to make a mistake. He had been resisting his first bike with pedals, and after a week with Yak, he was ready to try it out. He is now racing on it. My students have also responded well to Yak. I bought a second copy for my niece!
