I think what Mike has suggested works.

I had this dilemma with a shoot once. The best pose I had of a little girl was of her clutching her favorite doll, the doll was an old, ugly, pink plastic doll with a one remnant of ratty hair clinging to it's head. It was more in the horror movie genre, think "Chuckie"rather than quaint. She would not let go of it and had a fit every time it was removed.

I later photographed a teddy bear in front of the dress she was wearing and substituted it.

Unless the parents are hung up on this amorphous stuffed animal, does the boy have a dog or cat that could be substituted and photographed in the same light, level and angle?
