Should an 18 month old sleep with a small security blanket?

Oh, of course!!

At 18 mos. your child is still considered a baby.

Let them have it, they need all the warmth, love and

security they can get!

My son had his until age 4.

Another one never cared for them.

It's just another thing, like pacifiers, that are needed

right now. Young children need all the help they can

get security-wise.

It'll help you feel better, too knowing they feel safe without

you right there, - It's a short-term habit.

Most just let them go on their own, but your child's

still young!

Let them have it...:)

I see nothing wrong with that. It is completely normal. I worked at a daycare with 1-2yr olds and many of them had special blankets or stuffed animals.

Just make it a nice light one, should be fine, my daughter was sleeping with blankets at that age

As long as they just sleep with it. It looks pretty dumb when you see a toddler clutching a brown battered blanket for dear life in Target.

why not, the only problem is the chance of separation anxiety.

My issue at the moment is getting a 2 and a half to give up their dummy.

in time it will happen.

i don't see anything wrong with it let the baby cuddle that one and cover your baby up with a bigger blanket

my childs same age and has a small bunny. she has it all the time especially when she sleeps.

if it mkes the baby feel good yes my kid did and walked around with it till she was 3years old then one day she was done with it

My eight year old still has one... Can get by without it if we/he goes somewhere, but when he is at home, its with him in bed. lol

yes -till the child is old enough to not want it anymore.
