So Derek and I are pretty excited to get this off the ground, but before we go ANYWHERE with it, I want to explain a little about my end of things.

I will be making the stuffed animals.

In recent years I have become more passionately against the toxins we are consuming and putting down our drains. It is easy to ignore something that we put down the drain because we never see it again, but those toxins are going to be haunting us a whole lot longer than it takes to flush it down the drain. This lead to the choice of using all natural dyes and materials. This way, in the dying process, we are able to pour the dye down the drain with no guilt at all. Nature going back into nature. Along with this, we know that these animals will probably end up in someones mouth sooner or later. Whether that be babies, moms or dads, or even the dogs, there will be no toxins absorbed from any of the dyes. Just natural fruits, veggies, and herbs.

So why sea animals? For one, they are beautiful and interesting. Another reason is to draw attention to the importance of the oceans on our planet. The oceans take up a whole lot more space than we do on land, and they go a lot deeper. There is still a lot to discover and explore about the ocean and a lot that needs protected. We have not been the best housekeepers when it comes to our bodies of water.

We intend to partner with different organizations that have similar missions as we have and support them with a portion of the proceeds of each animal purchased. This will further research, protection, and restoration of the oceans while we are doing our best to help parents research how to be the best parent they can, and share their insight with others, protecting families from becoming distant and aloof, and restoring lost relationships.

This is no easy feat, but we are so excited to get going and look forward for what happens next in our grand adventure.
