SECURITY PILLOW "TOPPONCINO"
(You will want to order two covers, BA234, for the topponcino.) We consider this the single most important shower or other gift for the expectant parents. The importance of using the topponcino (Italian: to.pon.chi'no) came home to us when the grandfather of our neighbors' tiny infant sat holding his granddaughter securely in his arms and told us that, because of the topponcino, it was the first time in his life he had felt comfortable holding a new grandchild!
The topponcino provides both comfort and security for the newborn as well. It is used to hold, to carry, to hand the baby to another person, or to burp her. When the infant falls asleep in one's arms on a topponcino it is very easy to lay her down without disturbing her all important sleep. It also allows an older sibling to safely and comfortably hold the baby. Even the familiar smell of the constantly-used topponcino comforts the infant.
There are two versions available:
The foam topponcino is made of 1/2" thick rubber foam covered with unbleached cotton muslin. It is also hand tied to keep the cover securely in place. The foam topponcino can be put in the washer and air dried.
NOTE: We recommend that two topponcino covers (BA234 be ordered for each topponcino. The topponcino cover is made of fine white cotton with white cotton lace trim. It fits securely, in the European pillowcase style. We suggest having two topponcinos and at least 4 covers for a basic layette. The topponcino is 26.5" (67 cm) long. Made in the USA.
