Lulla Doll Mimics Breathing and Heartbeat Sounds to Soothe Young Ones

— October 25, 2017 — Life-Stages
While there are many toys that use music and lights to help kids soothe themselves to sleep, the Lulla doll takes a simpler approach as a sleep companion that mimics the closeness of a caregiver with realistic breathing and heartbeat sounds.

The sleep companion for babies, toddlers and young kids from RoRo was based on scientific research that supports the idea that closeness improves sleep, wellbeing and safety. For added comfort, RoRo suggests that caregivers keep the the doll close to their skin before giving it to the child, so that it may absorb their scent.

The Lulla doll is also suited for premature babies and other children who must spend long periods of time in isolation due to their medical needs. As such, the Lulla doll may be washed at a high temperature to eliminate most bacteria.
Trend Themes
1. Realistic Sleep Companions - Opportunity to create more innovative and life-like sleep companions for babies and toddlers.
2. Sensory-based Sleep Aids - Opportunity to explore sleep aids that focus on sensory experiences and scientifically-backed research.
3. Personalized Health Tech for Children - Opportunity to expand personalization in health tech to include children's needs and preferences.
Industry Implications
1. Toy Manufacturing - Opportunity to incorporate scientific research into toy development and create more innovative sleep companion toys.
2. Healthcare - Opportunity to explore the use of sensory-based sleep aids in healthcare settings such as hospitals and long-term care facilities.
3. Technology - Opportunity to develop and market personalized health tech products for children such as the Lulla doll.
