Meet Sawyer the Sheep – A Hand Puppet That Brings Playtime to Life

Elliot the Elephant isn’t just a cuddly companion—he’s a gateway to imagination, bonding, and early learning. Designed as a soft, hand-knit organic wool hand puppet, Elliot encourages interactive play that supports your baby’s sensory development, language skills, and emotional connection.

Hand puppets like Sawyer are a powerful tool for stimulating your little one’s mind. Through simple movements, gentle storytelling, and playful expression, they help spark curiosity, strengthen eye-tracking and motor skills, and foster social and emotional growth—all while creating joyful moments between caregiver and child.

Lovingly crafted by artisans in a women’s collaborative in Kenya, Elliot is made using ethically sourced, organic wooland eco-friendly, locally dyed yarns. When local dyes aren’t available, we ensure only GOTS-certified, non-toxic dyesare used, keeping your baby safe and the planet in mind.

To ensure long-lasting comfort and durability, each puppet is thoroughly washed at the workshop to set dyes and prevent shrinkage—so Elliot stays soft, safe, and snuggly through every storytime and adventure.

Bring home Sawyer the Sheep and give your baby a playful friend that’s as nurturing as it is inspiring.
