To accompany a photo series by the German artist, Katja Kemnit, who has been inspired by her daughter’s love for a soft toy dog, we’d like to see pictures of yours - or your children’s – most loved soft toys.

We all remember the teddy bear, dog or monkey that we loved as a child and often we’ve kept them, even though they may be rather worse for wear. We’d like to see your photos and hear your memories about how your cuddly companion saw you through the good – and the bad times. Perhaps you’re one of the unlucky ones who lost your toy or are living in perennial fear of losing your child’s.

You can share your photos, videos and stories by clicking on the blue ‘Contribute’ button on this article. You can also use the GuardianWitness smartphone app or the Guardian app and search for ‘GuardianWitness assignments’.

We’ll publish the best contributions on the Guardian site.
