Why We Choose Organic Cotton
We believe toys should bring joy to children while leaving a lighter footprint on the Earth. That’s why we choose organic cotton yarn. It’s one of the best solutions we’ve found for making natural toys while supporting farming practices that are gentler on nature.
Organic farming helps reduce reliance on synthetic pesticides and fertilizers, while supporting healthier soils, biodiversity, and cleaner waterways. That can make a difference not only for the land, but also for the farming communities and ecosystems connected to it.
From the farmers who grow the cotton, to the women who knit each finger puppet, to the children who bring them to life through play, organic cotton is a choice we can feel good about.
Why Storytelling Matters
Stories have long helped children understand the world around them, exploring ideas, relationships and emotions in ways that feel natural and engaging.
When finger puppets become part of story time, children move beyond listening to become active participants while giving voices to characters, retelling favorite tales and creating entirely new adventures of their own. Storytelling can also help foster a love of books and encourage a passion for reading.
Meet the Women Knitters
In the Andes of Peru, near the shores of Lake Titicaca, knitting is a tradition passed down through generations. Mothers have long knitted warm clothing and small toys for their children.
Today, women artisans hand-knit each tiny finger puppet using a traditional three-needle technique. Their exceptional craftsmanship provides flexible work they can do from home while caring for their families.
No two hands knit quite the same way. Each woman knitter brings her own skill, creativity, and personal touch, making every playful puppet unique while carrying forward a treasured knitting tradition.
