We so enjoyed our visit this morning. What a great idea. Seeing the joy on my 17 month old niece’s face as she made the connection between her favorite stuffed animal who is also a sloth was priceless. They live in Sweden so we haven’t been able to see them during Covid. It was a great birthday present for my mother as well."
