Evaluation comments:
“It is not only huggable and soft, it can also teach children about providing meals to other children in need. I love the fact that it is handmade and was made by a family for a family. I was able to have an open dialogue with my oldest daughter about why the doll gives back to other kids who are not as fortunate as she is.”
“Love the message behind it. I feel like I am giving a gift as well as offering a lesson.”
“My 5-year-old liked to make it talk to her other dolls. She had the most imagination with it. My 3-year-old liked to cuddle it when she felt sad, or was afraid of the dark.”
