The Butterfly Pig is a company dedicated to making inclusive toys that represent children with medical needs. Their online shop includes a collection of diverse dolls and medical accessories for dolls including, but not limited to, AAC devices, orthotics, hearing aids, glasses, G-tube buttons, IV poles, oxygen monitors, inhalers, and so much more! The following is an excerpt from their website: “Pediatric patient education is difficult without the right resources. Kids learn through play. What happens when they don’t have the right toys to play with? Especially if their lives consistent of doctors visits, hospital stays, or even at-home medical procedures.”
The Butterfly Pig’s mascot is Billie, a pig born with butterfly wings. “You may be familiar with the phrase “when pigs fly,” which suggests impossibility. But here, we turn that notion on it’s head! Our whimsical mascot embodies the spirit of boundless imagination, hope, and endless possibilities. It represents the power of defying expectations and embracing the extraordinary. Instead of accepting the phrase “when pigs fly” as a limitation, we embrace it as a challenge to prove that remarkable things can happen if we dare to dream big.
