The cutest 25+ toys to sew for kids

I love sewing toys for kids! There is something extra special about a child snuggling something that you’ve made them, and it is even more fun when they’re old enough to help you pick out fabrics and details just to their liking. For this list, I focused on toys to sew for kids with busy hands! Lots of zippers, buttons, and elements to keep them occupied instead of a simple stuffed animal or doll.

If you need even more ideas of what to sew for kids, check out these posts:
