STORY
According to Guatemalan legend, worry dolls have the ability to remove worries while children sleep. At night, during tuck-in, children tell one worry to each doll and then place them under their pillow. In the morning, they wake fresh because they've shared their worries - and sometimes, just speaking our minds lightens the load. This sweet little handmade set includes ten miniature wood and cloth dolls in a handwoven cotton bag. A thoughtful gift, even for adults who have a lot on their minds.

Classic TTV - quiet fidget toys

Time tested TTV item for decades! When “Fidget Spinners” appeared on the mass market I bought a classroom sets worth of these - quiet, less distracting to others and fit into most IEP plans.

Perfect gift for that young person in your life

I gave this to my niece and nephew and they love to use them before bed to eliminate their worries before they go to sleep. Beautiful traditional Guatemalan fabric! Great anytime but especially now with everything that is happening in the world.
