WHY WHAT YOU'VE TRIED ISN'T WORKING
The Secret is in Your Nervous System
Your nervous system gets stuck in high alert—keeping you wired, anxious, and exhausted.
I lived this for years until I discovered deep pressure actually tells your nervous system it's safe to relax.
That's why I created Penny—instant nervous system support whenever you need it. Penny doesn't just comfort you - she changes how you feel.
- Amy, Founder, For the Cubs

Customer Reviews
I love Penny she is exactly what I needed! I would recommend her to everyone!
Thank you so much for the lovely review - we are so glad you love her! :)
Penny is a great addition to the Percy family (I have 2 Pennys and 5 Percys). Penny has the same adorable face and glasses. Her skin is soft in a more plush/felt way versus Percy's soft fur. Her weight tends to distribute lower in her body, but sometimes this is nice since her arms are weighted and at times it gives a space to keep your arm in a good hug spot. It is neat how you can take out and put in the weighted hearts - and the fact they are hearts makes me smile. I love Penny and Percy both very much and each is soothing, calming, and a good support. Another excellent job by For the Cubs
I am very pleased with the Penny Bear. I like the material that she is made of. It doesn’t tickle the arms as I hold it. The size is great for holding or hugging.
So glad you love your Penny Bear, R.S.! :)
I got Penny for my 6 year old daughter after struggling with her emotions. Her dad had undergone brain surgery after a summer of being ill and out of work. Penny was the perfect friend/companion.
We are so honored that Penny is bringing comfort to your daughter during such a hard season. Sending support to your entire family.
Fantastic
