Many children have an item that they love. This item can be a blanket, pillow, stuffed animal, or any other soft object. This type of item is called a comfort object. Perhaps the most common kind of comfort object is a security blanket. Security blankets are often small, soft blankets that children take with them wherever they go. Many children can’t sleep without their security blankets or other comfort objects. Comfort objects are also called transitional objects.


許多孩子都擁有一件他們鍾愛的物品。這個物品可以是毯子、枕頭、絨毛玩具或任何其他的柔軟小物。這種類型的物品被稱為安全感小物。也許最常見的一種安全感小物是小被被。小被被通常是小而軟的毯子,孩子們無論走到哪裡都隨身攜帶。許多孩子沒有小被被或其他安全感小物就無法入睡。安全感小物也被稱為過渡性客體。
