cuddle + kind
All products from cuddle and kind are handmade. Crafted in Peru with passion and pride, these products go beyond mere stuffed animals, becoming beautiful works of art. And they are not only beautiful but also provide support to many. Based on fair trade principles, the products contribute to improving the lives of artisans in Peru and Nepal. Additionally, for every stuffed animal sold, 10 meals (for a regular-sized item) are donated to children in need.
Every doll feeds children in need
1 doll = 10 meals
For every doll sold, we give nutritious meals to children in need in 77 countries around the world. We are proud to partner with several highly respected humanitarian agencies like the Children’s Hunger Fund and World Food Program USA to distribute the meals our dolls provide.
Other brands
Sophie la girafe
VULLI is a long-established French toy manufacturer famous for Sophie the Giraffe. In a beautiful town in the south of France near the Swiss border, they carefully craft each and every Sophie the Giraffe at a leisurely pace. We would like to convey to everyone in Japan the feelings that the French people have for Sophie the Giraffe.
Cloud b
Cloud b is a company that develops products that specialize in children's sleep. The founder, Linda, is a very nice Korean-American woman. Based on the belief that "kids these days have busier schedules than adults, but what is really important for children is to have a relaxed sleep," she is focusing on not only Cloud B's product development, but also volunteer activities and sleep coordinator classes. The company is run by BTL Diffusion in France. I'm looking forward to seeing more cute French-tasting friends. I would like to introduce the best products for sleep training and convey that it is important for children to fall asleep on their own for healthy growth.
Paris Trousselier
Traseria is a long-established brand that has been loved in France since 1971. It has established a solid position as a manufacturer of music boxes and stuffed toys. Its gentle designs are sure to bring a smile to the face of both adults and children. Traseria also produces the Sophie the Giraffe music box. I met the president of Traseria at the Sophie the Giraffe convention in France.
Baby au lait
Bebe au lait has an office in Los Gatos, near a lake in Silicon Valley.
Claire, who started the company, has her husband, a former soccer player, who has joined the business and energetically supports her so that she can concentrate on design. When you visit the company, you will be greeted by a large Labrador and stylish, friendly staff, making it a wonderful company full of love, typical of California. We would like to share with you the ingenuity and passion that has gone into nursing capes, such as the sophisticated design by Claire, who is British, and their functionality with good ventilation.
I met Claire from Bebe au lait when I was shooting the baby photoshoot for Sophie la Girafe. Some of you may notice that the baby model for Bebe Ore's swaddle and nursing cover are the same as the baby model and mom model for Sophie la Girafe.
Tiny Spoon introduced the president of Bebe au lait to France, and Bebe au lait created the Sophie la Girafe nursing cape.
Tiny Spoon also played a part in the creation of Bebe au lait's Sophie la Girafe product.
Pample Mousse Peluches
"Pample Mousse Peluches" is a new stuffed animal brand born in France in 2015.
Born in Picardy, France, where three siblings, Sophie, Helen and Lauren, spent their childhood, they create stuffed toys inspired by their childhood fantasies, their surroundings and their deep love for animals and nature.
Helen is also the US representative for the Sophie the Giraffe agency. This brand was created with passion, based on her more than 20 years of experience with Sophie the Giraffe. Each Pamplemousse stuffed toy is carefully crafted and is a wonderful piece that shows the pride she takes in her toys.
Monpoké
The Pokémon baby brand "Monpoke" is named by combining the French word "mon" (my) and the French word "poké" (Pokémon). It looks like the generation of moms and dads who grew up with Pokémon will be able to spend their days having fun with their kids. The children's clothes made by Inujirushi Honpo, a long-established Japanese company that specializes in nursing clothes, are light and comfortable to wear.
