We did these as a group to help the girls get excited about doing anonymous acts of kindness. They had so much fun making them and then being sneaky when we dropped them because we didn't want to be noticed as that would have defeated the whole "anonymous" thing. :)

FOUND Drop #1589

This sweet elephant dropped at the Berlin zoo was FOUND!

The finder says:

Dear Toy Society and Dieuwertje,

Yesterday, as we were visiting the Berlin Zoo, Elephant was attached to the fence. It looked quite sad and I was fortunate enough to be able to take care of him. Elephant is now in Scheveningen and about to travel to the UK by sailing boat. So he is one lucky Elephant!!!

I will take care of him, feed him well and give him a hug every now and then.

Lots of Love Lotte
