Teaching children about diversity and the differences in each and every one of us isn't always easy. Children can oftentimes point out these differences in a way which ridicules others, instead of accepting people for the way they are.
When you buy a plush toy, one will also be given to a child in need.
Lamby Lambpants Plush Toy Helps Children Celebrate Our Differences
Lamby Lambpants is the first in Love & Fleece's planned line of character Cuddle Toys, unique plush toys that are imbued with a flawed characteristic—a kink, oddity, vulnerability, disability or impairment—in an effort to show kids that becoming all you are begins when you truly accept yourself boldly, proudly and honestly, quirks and all. Lamby may be missing an eye, but his spirit is not broken.
A bad day with the family dog has not deterred this sassy little lamb. While he may be missing an eye, his blue bottle cap suits him just fine. In fact, it’s what gives Lamby his magic. He has the power to bring other toys to life and when he does, great adventures unfold. Purchase this cuddle toy for your little one, and follow Lamby’s adventures online as he sings, shares quirky wisdoms and stories on his free website.
Best of all, for every plush toy sold, one will be given to a sick or needy child. A great way to teach your child the value of giving to those in need and having compassion for everyone, regardless of quirk or disability. Lamby’s missing eye is worn as a badge of courage and gives him the strength to be fearless. His fearless spirit is what makes his heart larger than life as I'm sure you'll agree.
My daughter definitely loved meeting and bonding with the Lamby Lambpants plush toy and when I explained to her that he was missing his eye and had to wear a bottle cap eye patch, her immediate reply was "Wow, that's just like a pirate...COOL!"
Everyone is different in some way and it's important to recognize that these differences give us character and make us unique. They are to be celebrated, instead of singled out and mocked. I'm glad to know that there is a company like Love & Fleece which is helping to show children how best to deal with the differences in us all as well as help children in need feel a little better through their generosity.
