The blanket school bag: a beautiful transition object for young children

The symbolism of the cuddly toy

Donald Winnicott is the first to have devoted a theory on the blanket. Called "transitional object", it brings comfort to the child in moments of separation from his loved ones. This symbolic aid induces the idea of a transition:

• between the small being and the other (the external world);
• between the real and the imaginary;
• between presence and absence;
• between safety and adventure.

Of course this "object" can come in several forms. Moreover, each of them is carefully chosen according to the senses dear to the child. The adoption of a sweet plush connects sight and touch (sometimes hearing if the plush is endowed with several textures, at least one of which makes noise), that of a fabric can offer a soothing smell or a feeling of fullness ...

Very popular in childcare facilities, the blanket continues to support young students in kindergarten.
