How to use Meebie™

Meebie parts folderAs your setting requires, Meebie™ can be useful in projecting feelings, identifying affect, developing empathy, social skills enhancement, and building fine motor control skills. Yet, we are just beginning to learn all of the areas and uses for which Meebie™ is, and will be, a significant addition to the therapy clinic, teacher's classroom, counselor's office, and family home.

Here are some thoughts to get you started, but as you use Meebie™ in your setting, we hope you will share your successes and experiences with us so we can pass that knowledge on to others.

  • Families, therapists and teachers might all use Meebie™ somewhat differently.
  • You can make Meebie™ accessible by propping against some pillows, or sit Meebie™ in a chair, or set upright in a cozy toy corner. The point is just to have Meebie™ propped upright at a comfortable level for interaction.
  • Open the folder of embroidered pieces and begin.
  • Experiment! Many of Meebie™’s eyes, mouths, and various pieces work just as well upside down, or as something else entirely.
  • If a firm grip between piece and fur is desired, give the piece a little wiggle in its position.
  • Meebie™ and all parts are washable.
  • We've worked hard to make Meebie™ non-gender and non-race specific so that the child can apply what is meaningful to them.
