<p>Infant health monitoring leads to lighten the burden of child care. According to Hyogo medical association, the observation of multiple behaviors is needed for estimating infants health conditions. This study develops a sensor-embedded plushie device for frequent observation of four kinds of behaviors in temper tantrum. To make the device more familiar for infants, the device is based on an idea of“security blanket”which is favorite item for infants. Especially, small-sized and lightweight sensors are developed: a tensile force sensor and an omnidirectional bending sensor. Taking into account sanitation, the outer cover of device is detachable and parents can wash it. An experiment conducted with adult subjects examines the basic measurement performance of the device. Experimental results demonstrate the possibility to distinguish the behaviors in normal and temper tantrum conditions.</p>
