JooblesFair Trade Organic Stuffed Animal - Cutie The Lamb

When I was young, my favorite stuffed animal was “Lambie”. My Lambie was white with natural cotton fur and a little bow around its neck. I adored Lambie. I carried it around everywhere I went. I am sad to report that I loved it so much that eventually its little head separated from its body. But, of course, my mom repaired it. That is what love is about.The connection a child makes with a stuffed animal is a daily practice in compassion. In empathy. In caring for something outside of oneself.This Cutie the Lamb reminds me of my own Lambie. It’s made by hand with love. In this case, the creators are a fair trade organization based in Peru. The workers are paid living wages so they can afford to feed their families. Does this mean that Cutie costs a little more than sweat shop creations? Absolutely, and that’s the point! This is a model that we should ALL be following. Treat craftspeople with respect. Honor their efforts. Adore the things they make for us.Cutie the Lamb has a pink body and rose-colored arms and legs. Cutie has a sewn-on neck ribbon and yellow ears. It’s a delightful companion for any child.And I would go further than that. I think adults could use to have some cuteness and joy in their own lives. Is there something about being an adult that says we can no longer feel joy at seeing something cute? Maybe sit it on a shelf or in with plants or books? We all need something to remind us every once in a while that life is to be enjoyed. To be cherished.

Really cute toy but I didn't realise that it was stuffed with polyester -- which is essentially very finely spun plastic -- which if you know anything about microplastics you'll know is polluting our environment and potentially damaging our health... so if your baby/child stuffs this into their mouth the weave of the knit means they can potentially ingest the fine polyester stuffing. In my opinion ending up ingesting plastic - a known endocrine disruptor.Given the price of this toy it's a real shame that they didn't go the extra mile to make the whole toy a safer option. A better alternative stuffing for this toy would be corn fibre or wool - healthier for baby and healthier for the environment.

I am so happy with this little lamb! It's super soft and cuddly, my daughter loves it. It seems to be very well made, so hopefully it will survive a trip through the washer, when the time comes.

It is adorable and was delivered very promptly. Thank you guys for making such a great product with an ethical commitment!

This is a beautiful doll made by wonderful Peruvians. Organic cotton. Our daughter absolutely adores it. In fact, she plays with it daily.

Very soft and huggable lamb, my daughter loves it. Will definitely purchase from this company again in the future.

Great Soft Toy. My 5 year old loved the Lamb. The price was a little steep.

perfect cuddly stuffed animal for 1.5 year old.
