Dexcom G6 Doll Diabetes Accessory Set – 2 Over-Patches for 18-Inch Dolls by Deck My Diabetes
This mini Dexcom G6 diabetes device accessory set from Deck My Diabetes lets children with type 1 diabetes (T1D) equip their 18-inch doll or plush toy with a realistic continuous glucose monitor. Created by a T1D family, the set includes a plastic sensor-shaped device and two white over-patches to secure it on the doll's body. The materials have been tested by a third-party laboratory. The doll is not included. Always supervise play due to small parts – not suitable for children under 3 years old.
What’s in the Box?
- 1 mini Dexcom G6 sensor (plastic)
- 2 white over-patches for easy placement
- Third-party lab-tested, child-safe materials
How Does It Fit?
The device is scaled to fit popular 18-inch dolls like American Girl or similar plush toys. The over-patches help it stick securely to the doll's arm or body. Check the product photos for exact sizing – it's small but makes a big difference in helping a child feel understood and represented.
Who Is This For?
This set helps children with T1D practice self-care and build empathy through play. It mirrors real diabetes management tools and can be used with any soft doll or plush toy. It’s also a great conversation starter for siblings, friends, and classmates to learn about diabetes.
