Stay close to the ones you love—no matter the distance—with our Connection Hearts Set. These soft, pocket-sized hearts are a beautiful way for children to feel bonded to their “heart family,” whether that’s parents, grandparents, siblings, or anyone special in their lives. Designed to help kids feel connected, comforted, and emotionally supported, Connection Hearts make it easy to share love across miles, busy schedules, or big transitions.

Each set includes two matching Connection Hearts, so your child keeps one and sends the other to someone they miss. Families can practice Otter’s meaningful affirmation together over video calls, or exchange messages and drawings tucked into the heart’s small pocket. It’s a simple, powerful routine that helps little ones feel grounded and reassured, even when loved ones are far away.

What’s Included:

• 2 Connection Hearts with Pockets

  • Choose from:
    • 2 Rust Hearts
    • 2 Peony Hearts

• 1 Greeting Card

• 1 Shipping Envelope

• Otter Affirmation Card with “How It Works” instructions on the back

How It Works:

1. Write a heartfelt message in the included greeting card.

2. Add a photo, drawing, or note to one of the mini cards and tuck it inside the pocket of your Connection Heart.

3. Place the heart and greeting card into the included shipping envelope.

4. Apply postage and send your love to someone you’ve been missing.

5. Keep your matching heart close and say Otter’s affirmation to feel connected to your heart family.

A meaningful gift for kids navigating distance, transitions, or big feelings—Connection Hearts help love stretch farther, stay stronger, and feel closer than ever.
