Hickory Shack Hoppity Bunny

When Hoppity Bunny arrived at our house I had two very excited children. Scott (two) grabbed it and went running off with it shouting "coool" but thankfully he then decided that "Here Lexa you can have it, bunny rabbits are for girls" – no idea where that came from but hey it stopped the potential fights!

Alexa (aged one) loved it from first sight and poor Hoppity was shoved straight into her mouth whilst she crawled to a corner to inspect it in peace.
 
Hoppity is 36cm tall so a reasonable size but not so big that it takes up loads of space, for Alexa it’s easy to carry (both in her mouth and her hands) or for me to just pop into my bag or jumper pocket when we’re off out.
 
Hoppity is ultra soft thanks to being made from top quality soft Boa and his paws and inner ears are made from a material called alcantara which Aston Martin use as a seat trim so it must be good quality! It also comes dressed in a woven fabric top that is pink with grey hearts on it which can be taken off and interchanged with clothes from the rest of the Hickory Shack range of the same size.
 
Hoppity had a slight mishap when he got thrown up on but both he and his top survived a "bath" and looked good as new again.
 
Alexa seems to like playing with his feet and bum(!) as she can feel the little plastic pellets through it but I understand that these are in double-lined pillows and have been double stitched to ensure absolute safety for little ones.
 
Another safety feature incorporated into Hoppity Bunny is the fact that the eyes and nose/mouth are stitched in. Whilst the eyes are visible, the nose/mouth is pretty much invisible – to the point where Scott asked me why the bunny doesn’t have them.
 
At £17.95 I think it is a bit expensive for a soft toy but my daughter really loves it so in that case it would be money well spent.
