Under the Nile products offer you an alternative to conventional apparel. All the cotton is 100% ORGANIC, 100% Egyptian. The natural cotton assures you that absolutely no pesticides or chemicals have been used through the entire production process. These products were created because of concern about the pollutants that our children are exposed to, which includes the clothes they wear. These garments are safe, pesticide-free, comfortable and naturally dyed. Accessories such as buttons and zippers are made for organically friendly elements like wood, shell or nickel-free metals. The farm that grows our cotton and makes our apparel focuses on fair trade and provides a worldwide model community for organic agriculture along with a supportive work place.The fact that we use cotton grown in Egypt makes it even more extraordinary because of the extremely soft, gentle and durable features Egyptian cotton is known for.

This doll is very cute and is perfect for small hands and arms to hold, and the cotton is very soft. My 3-month-old son loves chewing on various parts of the doll - the hands in particular - and since it is organic cotton with safe dyes, I don't have to worry about what he's ingesting. It has been through the wash 3 times so far and come out well. It does take a little longer to dry than regular items of clothing since the head, hands and little of the body have stuffing in them.
Update (Feb 2011): My son still loves these, but it does come with a couple caveats. First of all, he sucks/chews on the hands more than ever, so they need to be washed frequently. This means that I have to have multiple on hand so that he can have one while the other(s) are in the wash. The downside to this is that due to the animal print, all of the dolls is somewhat unique. Right now, he doesn't really care, but I wonder if he will notice when he's a little older. If you want to get your child multiple of these as a lovey, I think you would be better off getting one of the solid color ones.

When I first received the doll in the mail, I wasn't impressed and planned on returning it, but with all of the craziness of a newborn, that just wasn't feasible, and so, I decided to give it another chance. It's not soft, at all, compared to other lovies, and it shrunk pretty dramatically after I washed it and started to pick after only a few days. My son really didn't like it until he started the drooling phase, and now he likes to chew on the terry cloth hat, which is pretty great because it absorbs spitty-spit pretty well. It's cute, yes, but I wouldn't recommend it. It also has a really itchy tag that I had to get a seam ripper and take out (that's not shown in the picture). I like the androgyny of the toy, the muted color scheme, and the terry cloth features, but ultimately, it's just not a good texture or shape.

My son never really enjoyed using a pacifier- but he used this doll as a teething/soothing toy for a long time. We named her saliva sally, and she was so treasured that she is included in the presents to all expecting friends. I highly recommend the product- easy to clean and soft- the perfect toy for roadtrips or sleeping. The hands and face are a little bit firmer so when my son teethed he would chew on those parts and it seemed to provide a lot of relief for him- one of the best purchases we made when he was little :)

Super soft and cute.
It was super cute and soft but too bad we lost it on the first day. :( The size is about a adult hand. Perfect for the toddlers.

ADORABLE, great quality, cuddly and safe
This organic cotton doll is super cute, very reasonably priced and perfect for the smallest babies because it is also fairly small. My 10 month old loves it and chews on its hat. Read more
