What’s a WubbaNub?

Posted on January 6, 2012 by Guests

….Or, how a PACIFIER and a PLUSH TOY helped a family live happily ever after!

It’s 1998 and the Schneider family is packing up for a long-awaited vacation – three-month-old Baby and all. They smile and laugh and play all day and have a wonderful time – the kind of vacation every young family dreams of. But the dream turns into a nightmare later that evening when Baby Schneider fusses and cries and wakes all night long.

Mommy and Daddy Schneider discover a way to get Baby to go to sleep: with a hospital pacifier planted firmly in his mouth. But when Baby drifts off, the pacifier drops out and the fussing starts all over again. To their dismay, Mommy and Daddy realize the only way the pacifier will stay put is if one of them holds it – all night long. No sleep for Mommy or Daddy!

The hours crawl by and become days. And still Baby fusses. It’s two days into their “dream” vacation and Mommy and Daddy – and Baby, too – are tired, cranky, and at their wit’s end. It’s 3:00 a.m. “How are we ever going to get that pacifier to stay put so we can all get some sleep?” whispers Daddy.

Suddenly, a smile crosses Mommy’s lips. Handing Baby to Daddy, she reaches for Baby’s pacifier…one of his plush toys…and a sewing kit…and sews the pacifier and the toy together – the WubbaNub™  is born! Baby takes the pacifier in his mouth and grasps the toy. Lo and behold, Baby drifts off and the pacifier stays put. 3:05 a.m.: all the Schneiders are sleeping soundly and they all lived happily ever after!

But a good night’s sleep is just the beginning of the WubbaNub™ story. When they return home, well-rested and happy, their friends – who are sleep-deprived with fussy babies of their own – cry out for WubbaNubs™. Mommy and Daddy sense they’re onto something here.

Since the year 1999 the WubbaNub™ has been produced in great numbers and in lots of colors and many friendly animal shapes. It’s on the market internationally in finer baby and childrens’ specialty stores, specialty toy stores, and internet web sites.

Carla Schneider

  • Durable one piece construction – no cracks to harbor germs!
  • Easy to clean: place in washing machine with baby’s laundry, gentle cycle in mesh laundry bag. Allow to air dry.
  • Plush animal makes it easy for baby to grasp and manipulate the pacifier
  • Carefully calculated weight and size of plush animal keeps the WubbaNub™ near baby’s mouth, whether lying on side or back, the car seat, sling, or stroller
  • Patented design prevents pacifier from being lost, dropped, or forgotten
  • Pacifier is made of silicone. Also, it is medical grade and given out by many hospitals nationwide in their nurseries.

    I like them all! I can’t choose one. I think I’d either get the monkey, giraffe, or elephant. All to match with his zoo themed room. Otherwise, the brown puppy..he does love his doggies!!
