This cute and cuddly dwarf planet and its satellite can be a springboard to a greater understanding and appreciation of the universe around us. Pluto and Charon are not only instant best friends however old or young you are, but also comes with a card tag with some fascinating facts and figures. Did you know that Charon nearly half as big as Pluto? This is perfect toy to open up the universe to any child. The two characters interact with each other by a magnet inserted inside a safety pouch between the shell and stuffing. Pluto was relegated to dwarf planet status in 2006, but we've still got a soft spot for this cuddly representation of it. Just check out that subtle heart on Pluto's front!

Celestial Buddies is an original line of plush characters, each personifying a celestial body occupying our heavens. The Celestial Buddies' "Big Bang" moment occurred after the creator of this miniature stuffed universe saw a documentary series on the Solar System and realised that there were no plush toys depicting the planets and started designing! And what a fantastic job they've done of bringing the universe home to space explorers young and old.
