Cuddle + Kind Pearl The Mermaid 20 Hand-knit Doll

We're a family of five on a mission to feed children in need. As parents, we believe all children should have enough food to eat and the opportunity to thrive, so when we saw a documentary on the impact of childhood hunger, it inspired us to help.

Launched under the brand name cuddle+kind, we started this initiative to create hand-knit dolls that provide nutritious meals. For every doll purchased, we donate 10 meals to children in the USA and 63 other countries around the world. Together, we've given over 25 million meals!

Our dolls are lovingly handcrafted by artisans in Peru and Nepal who earn a fair trade wage. We currently empower over 1,000 artisans through this ethical employment. All our dolls are made with premium OEKO-TEX certified cotton yarn that is hypoallergenic, 100% natural and extremely soft. They are safety certified by a third party for newborns and up.

We're super proud that our dolls have won many prestigious awards, including the Oppenheim Platinum Award for Best Toy 7 years in a row! We stand by our dolls 100% and offer a happiness guarantee. If you are unsatisfied with your doll for any reason when you receive it, you can replace or return it, no strings attached.

Our dolls are made to be heirloom quality, lovingly handcrafted in Peru using premium 100% cotton yarn. They are designed to withstand a lifetime of love and play, and can be handed down from baby to lucky baby. Each doll comes with its own birthday, personality and favourite quote that children love.

For every ethically produced, hand-knit doll purchased, 10 meals are provided to children in need. 1 doll = 10 meals. We're proud to empower talented women artisans with equitable, fair trade employment through this initiative.

Whether you're shopping for a newborn, toddler or older child, our award-winning dolls make the perfect gift that gives back. Note that both 13" and 20" sizes are available - please select your preferred size. Each doll purchase includes one doll.
