How to Turn A Child’s Dream Into a Toy
Step 1: Child Draws Their Future Dream Job
What do they want to do when they grow up? Whether they draw a doctor, prima ballerina, fireman or teacher, no matter what the dream is, we can help that dream stay alive.
Step 2: Contact Little Bo Baby
Send the drawing to Gaya and wait for her reply. This should only take one or two days.
Step 3: Wait Only 8 – 10 Days for the When I Grow Up Doll to Arrive
This doll will be sent back to them as a reminder of hope, their dreams and their vision of themselves for when they grow up.
All our plushies are handmade so there might be a slight size difference from quotes size. We try to err on the bigger side.

By letting children hold their dreams in their hands, we hope to inspire them to reach for them throughout their lives.
