ABOUT THE PRODUCT
How do I use Lou if I have multiple kids?

Leaving multiple notes or pieces of candy, trading nights, splitting completion duties for the map and calendar, or simply buying an extra plushie are all options. There’s no one size fits all to match age, emotional need, and preference for each component, so we suggest testing out what works for your situation which has the added benefit of learning more about your kids’ needs and likes.

Is Lou only meant for kids who show signs of separation anxiety?

No, Lou can be used in whatever way best suits your family. Whether that’s to help with a separation event (e.g., travel, sleep-away camp, date night) or to kick-start learning about maps and time tracking!

How do I store Lou?

If you choose to keep Lou’s visits special for times of separation, the box Lou arrived in was designed to be sturdy and for continual use. Some parents even like to keep Lou tucked away in their suitcase. Other parents find that Lou is helpful to have around all of the time and stored with any other toys. It’s up to you!

What are some creative ideas to put in the pouch?

Kids love to hear their parents voice whenever they need a boost - leave a message, sing a song, or tell a joke! You can re-record for every trip, so get creative. Handwritten notes, candy, or small travel tokens are also popular - the pouch possibilities are endless!

What is the recommended age range for LCTY?

Lou was designed to meet the emotional and educational needs of children ages 3-10. However, we have found that older siblings like to get in on the fun, as well!

How did you develop the concept for LCTY?
Necessity is the mother of invention! The concept of Lou came from our own childrens’ struggles with separation and some serious parent FOMO while we traveled for work or adult getaways. When researching ways to help our daughters manage these big feelings while staying connected with us, we realized there wasn’t an option out there. Through many brainstorm sessions during date nights, Lou was born!
What if I want an extra plushie or map?

We realize families with multiple kids might want their own Lou to snuggle, so we have the option to purchase extra plushies, books or printed components separately. Please see the shop page for more details.

Can I bulk order kits for my school, therapist's office, new parents at work, etc?
Yes! Please send your bulk order request to gdaymate@loucomestoyou.com. Often times we can offer discounts for bulk orders so please reach out so we can discuss more about your Lou needs.
