Tender Leaf Little Otter Canal Boat

Little Otter Canal Boat by Tender Leaf. Introducing the Tender Leaf Little Otter Canal Boat – where the new otter wooden doll family calls home, cruising along the river in their beautiful canal boat named ‘Malardeau’ after their favourite mallard duck companion perched proudly at the Bow end.

This houseboat brings a fresh twist to the classic doll's houses in our Tender Leaf range.

The removable roof and lift-out cabin provide extra play space, making it perfect for imaginative adventures. Dive into the world of language development, emotional awareness and storytelling with the specially designed accessories that come with this set.

Meet the doll characters Suzy, Skipper and Smudge, along with a wood-burning stove, a matchbox set of drawers, a jam jar lid table, 3 bottle tops, 3 knitted sleeping bags, a row of vegetables, a flowerpot, a coffee pot and a jam pot – all included in this delightful set.

What makes this canal boat even more charming is that the accessories resemble real-life items, borrowed and repurposed by the river residents, showcasing sustainability with borrowed bottle tops and repurposed food packaging. It's a home filled with creativity and resourcefulness!

All dolls in this set have their names printed underneath and are perfectly scaled to match the Sailaway Boat, Rosewood Cottage, Bunny Tales and Bear Tales. This wooden doll family, built for open-ended play, is a wonderful addition to the Merrywood Tales collection by Tender Leaf. 

Crafted from sustainable rubberwood and responsibly sourced plywood, and coloured with soft non-toxic hues for a contemporary style, the Little Otter Canal Boat is not just a toy – it's a journey into a world of eco-friendly, imaginative play.

Suitable from age 3+
