Boost your deaf, hard-of-hearing child's self esteem with dolls, bears wearing hearing aids

Your deaf and hard-of-hearing child might feel different among her hearing peers and as a result, suffer from lower self esteem.
Giving her a doll or bear that also wears a hearing aid might foster self-acceptance, which in turn will boost her self esteem.
You can purchase the toy plastic hearing aid for the doll for only $9 and the plush hearing aid for the teddy bear for $2 on amazon.
