Once upon a time, a young woman from the UK fell in love with a young man from Bangladesh. Eventually they moved to Bangladesh and had a baby. As the new mother cuddled her tiny boy, she couldn’t help but notice all of the young women streaming into the garment factories every morning. She was deeply saddened when she discovered that many of these woman had babies back home in their villages, left for months at a time with grandparents while the mom worked in the city. Lack of rural employment for women was separating families and putting the mothers in harmful situations and the babies without their mothers. So this new mom did what she could. She gathered a few women around her and taught them how to knit and crochet little dollies that could be sold in the Western markets. Samantha Morshed dreamed that this would grow and become an alternative source of income for women throughout Bangladesh. 15 years later, her dream is becoming a reality. More than 13,000 women are now employed making Pebble toys in their home village. They walk to work, taking their babies with them. There they sit together, yarn spilling onto their laps as they knit community and love together in each heirloom Pebble toy. Pebble was born out of a love for babies and their mothers.

Love this rattle! My baby is learning to rattle things so she occasionally hits herself in the head accidentally but I feel better because this rattle is super soft so I know she won’t get hurt! She also loves to use her camera!

Love this soft rattle. Didn’t want a plastic one and the wood ones just aren’t that safe for babies that really like to shake a rattle. My baby often hits himself in the face with his rattles and I love that I feel safe giving this one to him. I machine wash and dry this toy and it has held up great!
