SPIKE THE ECHIDNA

Spike is a full bodied interactive soft toy.
He has been designed to capture the spirit
of the rather comical Echidna.
However, to us it was also important
to give him loads of personality and attitude.
So in imaginative play he is not just
a stunning reminder of our unique wildlife
but a great little friend for conversation.

Spike is very soft and huggable. We designed his amazing spiky material to be ultra soft so that it would be fun and react to movement. The slightest breeze gives him a great 'bad hair' day.

Finding the right balance between a normal plump soft huggable toy and a puppet was an important aspect of Spike's unique interactive design. He is fully lined and comfortable on the hand. He is made from new synthetic material and polyester stuffing.

If you check out some of the video stories on Spike's home page, you will see Spike in action at various places around Secret Gully. You will also get a glimpse of his personality.

For us, our design of Spike captures two important aspects of the Secret Gully Project.
His unique appearance helps children to value our fragile wild life, while his delightful personality encourages conversation,
imagination and the joy of friendship.
