Lea is the nature lover, happiest outdoors and dressed for a day of it.

This is the age where a doll stops being an object and becomes a character. Children start feeding them, dressing them, telling them off and taking them out, and a doll with a clear personality gives them a place to begin rather than a blank to fill.

The body is entirely soft fabric with embroidered features and no hard parts, so it is safe to sleep with and light enough to be carried all day. It is dressed with the detail and colour that make Lilliputiens dolls stand apart from generic rag dolls.

Machine washable at 30 degrees on a gentle cycle.

Lilliputiens is a Belgian brand, founded in 1995 and designed by a team largely made up of parents working alongside early-childhood specialists. Tested to EN71 and ASTM standards and screened for AZO dyes, cadmium and phthalates.

A SOFT DOLL WITH A CHARACTER - Lea is the nature lover, happiest outdoors and dressed for a day of it.

BUILT FOR ROLE PLAY - At two and up children start acting out whole scenarios with a doll: feeding it, telling it off, taking it out. A doll with a clear personality gives them somewhere to start.

ENTIRELY SOFT - Fabric body with embroidered features and no hard parts, so it is safe to sleep with and light enough to be carried everywhere without complaint.

A DOLL WITH REAL STYLE - Dressed with the detail and colour Lilliputiens is known for, which is what separates this from a supermarket rag doll.

MACHINE WASHABLE - Machine washable at 30 degrees on a gentle cycle. Which any doll destined to be dragged around a park genuinely needs to be. Tested to EN71 and ASTM standards and screened for AZO dyes, cadmium and phthalates.
