I received this sweet note Saturday evening, and it filled me with smiles.
"I met you at the Moss St market today and bought a beaver for my son. I just wanted to say thank you. My son loves it. I may be exaggerating a little, since he's only 11 months old and still asleep, but I'm pretty sure it's keeping him asleep. He knows how much love went into it and is dreaming sweet dreams. That's what I'm choosing to believe anyway. Have a lovely day."
It's something to remember - the positive, comforting benefits of a hand made organic toy, stuffed with lamb's wool. I just love working with wool. Wool holds familiar, comforting scents, like mamas and papas and home, and feels exceptionally soft and springy to snuggle with. It's naturally anti-bacterial, which is AMAZING for a child's toy - you don't have to wash it, just spot clean the surface as necessary - and because the wool is on the inside of our toys, nestled behind layers of organic cotton, even little people with sensitivities can enjoy the benefits of a lamb's wool stuffie. (And for the uber safety aware - wool is naturally fire resistant to boot!)
Do your magical thing, little Three Penny Beaver friend!

My girl enjoys her bonbon so much as well as a few other items of yours. It is such a comfort for me to give her a chewy that both occupies and relieves her, and not have to cringe at the thought of plasticy, chemical, toxic weirdness. A Dress Me Up ball is next on our list... See you at the Market :)
Oh, what a lovely post - and affirmation! There's some CRAZY stuff that still goes into toys made for children. I'm proud to be offering such a great and safe (and Canadian made) alternative. Thanks for your note! And be sure to say hello next Saturday. :)
