St. Gemma Galgani by Playing With Grace
Originally sold on Etsy with 200+ sales and 60+ five star reviews, these religious peg dolls offer meaningful play time and provide parents with the opportunity to teach values, faith and love to their children.
St. Gemma Galgani stands 3 1/2" tall. She is seen with a cross and heart, and with a bouquet of flowers. They are hand painted with all non toxic material so no two dolls will be exactly alike and are clothed in material to add depth and texture to your childs' manipulatives. Sealed with a clear non toxic glaze. ***The dolls are very sturdy however because some saints feature small embellishments that if broken off could be a choking hazard, they are not recommended for children under the age of 5 without adult supervision.***
