When we started making pixie rattles, we just couldn’t stop and so we made 6 in total. They are all named after trees, plants, and flowers in the garden, and their colors are inspired by their names. People often ask me why they have no faces. The Steiner theory is that if children’s toys have minimal expressions then the child is able to project their own emotions onto the toy and this leads to more flexible and creative play. So if you’re sleepy then you can pretend that your toy is sleepy too. We think it’s a lovely concept and hope you will enjoy all the little pixies. At Pebble we like to think that our toys spread smiles worldwide: the ladies who make them in Bangladesh smile because the toys bring them to work, the parents smile because the toys keep their babies happy and enable them to shop with a conscience and the babies smile – well you can see why!
