"They are really cute!"
These little animals are so much cuter than the usual worry dolls. I bought some of each for Christmas presents and these little animals are cuter than the little dolls.

"Playful figures"
I purchased these dolls for a five year-old friend who enjoys small things. Her parents report that she enjoys playing with them. The designs, colors, and craftsmanship are all superb.

"Perfect gifts for friends/family who are sick or experiencing difficulties."
These charming hand made dolls each hold a heart to accept things that the receiver is troubled by. This allows them to get much needed sleep and healing relief by turning each trouble over to one doll who clearly has a BIG HEART.
Best Uses
- Relief from worring so much
