Poppy the penguin is no ordinary penguin — she’s based on the African penguin, a much-loved but highly endangered seabird found along South Africa’s coastline. Just like her wild cousins, Poppy is lively, social, and full of character. With her cheerful personality and soft, cuddly design, she’s a wonderful friend for children. Best of all, every purchase helps make a difference — proceeds support Sanccob, the South African organisation working to protect and rehabilitate the African penguin. Poppy is part of the snuggle squad cuddle cubs collection, a family of lovable plush characters designed to be collected and treasured. Designed in South Africa and handmade with love. Recommended for ages 3+.
