Here at Cotton Pod we are extremely proud to be collaborating with ‘Small & Mighty Babies’, an organisation that helps to support the families of ‘babies born a little too soon’.

Our Sleepy Octopus is designed to comfort & calm premature babies and has been endorsed by Small & Mighty Babies. (Please note: it is the final product made from the pattern, using the materials suggested, that has been endorsed, not simply the pattern alone, the octopus will need to be sterilised and pass checks at the hospital before it is given to a premature baby. Take care that the tentacles do not exceed 22cm in length if you are giving directly to a baby, for safety reasons).

If you would like the Sleepy Octopus you make from our pattern to find itself in the hands of a premature baby, keeping their Mighty life calm, courageous and loved by a stranger from afar, please get in touch here at Cotton Pod (sharon.sales@cottonpod.co.uk) or contact Joanne at http://www.smallandmightybabies.com/landing-page-example/
