Did You Know? A Little Look Into Jellycat

Did You Know? A Little Look Into Jellycat

You’ve probably spotted Jellycat around Millie Bo Peep. These popular plushies are
favored by all ages and make great gifts for any occasion, but did you know the fun
story behind the brand that makes them even more special?

Did you know Jellycat was founded in London in 1999? It was founded by brothers
William and Thomas Gatacre. The name Jellycat comes from a child who simply giggled
at the thought of jellies and cats. From the very beginning, Jellycat wanted to make toys
that felt truly special, and each had its own fun and unique personality, making them
more than just stuffed animals.

Another fun fact? Jellycat releases new collections twice a year, which means there’s
always something fresh and exciting arriving in our boutique. Many designs become
instant favorites, and some even turn into collector’s items for families who fall in love
with a certain character or style. That’s one reason you might notice our Jellycat display
changing throughout the seasons. We love bringing in all the different Jellycat styles
throughout the year!

Here at Millie Bo Peep in downtown Kenosha, we carefully choose Jellycat styles that
feel timeless, cozy, and gift-ready. From tiny rattles perfect for little hands to classic
plush animals that grow alongside your child, there’s something magical about finding
“the one” that a baby won’t want to let go of.

You might just discover a new favorite friend waiting on the shelf. And now you know
more about everyone's favorite cuddly, soft, and unique stuffed animals!
