This little guy is smaller than he seems in the picture, but too big to be a choking hazard. I would estimate he is about 3″ or 4″ tall.
My fourteen month old loves him though. It may be something to do with the contrast between the textures: smooth wood and soft loopy jacket. She goes to sleep with Mr. Sheep in one hand and “Doudou” in the other.
Like all Haba toys, he is built to withstand lots of loving. Plus, on a practical side, his little jacket easily removes for laundering if necessary.

We have a mouse version of this French toy that I found on Ebay. It is so cute!
This one comes with a poseable cat family-of-four in a wooden box with an assortment of real fabric clothing in which to dress them. My kids enjoy dressing and undressing the little wooden animals over and over again. Many clothing combinations are possible. Plus, this family is sized just right for a dollhouse.
