Under the Nile Organic Cotton Sea Turtle

Educational organic cotton sea turtle baby toy from Under the Nile's Endangered Species range

From Under the Nile's educational Endangered Species range, this lovely organic cotton sea turtle in two tones of green is generously sized and its flippers are ideal for little hands to grip and give a good vigorous shake, as babies so often love to do!

Under the Nile's statement on ethical working conditions for the workers who make their toys:

"We are proud to be part of a project contributing to the development of independent and self sustained communities.

The "13 Villages Project" is a campaign co-conducted by Under the Nile and its farm in Egypt (Sekem). It takes place in 13 rural villages in Sharkeya, Egypt. Through vocational training and infrastructural development, the project is improving the health, skills and overall well being of the village inhabitants. We provide excellent health care as well as education on dental and over all physical health. We begin by educating the villagers on how to make their fruit and vegetable toys. Each village receives an advance for their work and the materials needed to produce that toy. Upon completion, we pick up the finished goods and pay them fair wages for their work.

We are very excited to see the end result. Happy, educated, and healthy human beings."
