Isn’t this the cutest little Mama Bear you’ve ever seen?

This is actually the Organic Sleepy Bear, seriously, isn’t she cute! I love the way she is carrying her little baby bear in an all organic Sleepy Wrap, snuggled up so close for safety and security! Both bears are so super soft, made from 100% organic cotton and there are no parts to pop of that could pose potential choking hazards to our little ones. The eyes, nose and mouth are all stitched on for safe play. There is nothing that could be pulled off and put into little mouths. This wonderful little bear is perfect for play and for snuggle time.

Notice the adorable little wrap that is holding the baby bear? That Organic Khaki Wrap is also made from %100 organic cotton and is available for adult human moms to use for their own human babies! The wrap is available in both natural and khaki colors and is just as soft as the Sleepy Bear.

If you are a new mom or know someone who is, or maybe you’re looking for that perfect baby shower gift, the Organic Wrap is a great gift, even for yourself. The Sleepy Bear is great for kids of all ages as my 2 year old granddaughter will tell you, she loves it! You can order the Organic Wrap online, however, the Organic Sleepy Bear is only available from the following select stores:
