Woof. Baaa. Roar. Oink. Snuggle. Learn. Stephanie McPherson, the creator of these adorable friends, must be a genius. Not only are the plush wildlife soft and perfect, but each comes with a matching storybook that features different aspects of the animal’s habitat, food preferences, and lifestyle. The Stephanimals’ stories are meant to educate parents and children about nature and the environment of the animals around us. A portion of sales are donated to the Nature Trust of British Columbia, and the teaching that you can do with your child will affect the environment forever. Not a bad gift, huh?
