Say hello to Sylvain rabbit - our best-selling bunny and a favourite at Cottontails for over 20 years.

Designed in France by Moulin Roty, one of the finest toymakers in the world, he is part of their signature fabric animal collection - The Grand Family. 

This is the standard 34cm size Sylvain - the original, classic sized toy - but he is also available in other sizes and as a hand puppet.

A lovely, gentle choice for a newborn with his soft pale fawn fur,  embroidered face and long dangly limbs and ears - he is safe from birth and perfect for cuddles.

But he is also much loved by older children... His romper is removable, so lovely for dressing and undressing - a nice way to encourage nurture and care, as well as to develop fine motor skills. (Plus it's fun to swap outfits if you collect the Grand Family animals - see him pictured here with his good friend, Nini mouse).
