Kids can have a security blanket but they can only use/hold it on the comforter I keep on the family room floor .They can go sit anytime they feel a need to but the security items go back into the cubby when they are done ( or used at nap time).
The security blanket has to be a small one though , I once had a child come in with a twin sized comforter
.
And I require a spare security blanket be left here as I will not be available after hours if it is forgotten.
I have never had a child over 1 use a pacifier , but have had thumb suckers . They can suck their thumb but it must be on the blanket I keep out .
