The Little Humbugs Wow the Green Living Show Visitors

Wildwood premiered Canada’s Butterfly Girl KATI at the Green Living Show on 29th Feb – 2nd March in Vancouver along with Jasmine the leader, Chloe the Gardener and Lucy the Bird Keeper. The dolls were a massive hit. “Meeting the public was so exciting for us, they were so grateful for providing a toy that had a meaningful message and positive role models for young girls,” remarked Marghanita after the Vancouver show. “When you get that kind of fantastic feedback from the public you know all the hard work has been worth it.”
“It was evident at the Green Living Show that there is a growing demand for alternative toys and books - kids, parents and grandparents were all captivated by Marghanita’s enchanting, brightly coloured book characters which were brought to life in doll form. Attracted by the colour and uniqueness of the product, they were impressed by the quality and it’s wholesomeness. When they were told the story about the Little Humbugs and their mission they said it was a dream gift to give to a child,” added David Hughes.
