Pocketlings plush dolls & books

When 10-year-old Olamide couldn’t find cute plush dolls that looked like her, she decided to design her own — and Pocketlings was born. Pocketlings is a joyful, representation-first doll and book brand created by a mother–daughter team to celebrate Black kids, culture, and confidence. Our high-quality plush Pocketlings full-size dolls (20–30 cm) come in minimal packaging with a carrier bag, and our affirmation-filled books help little ones see themselves as awesome, capable, and worthy. Pocketlings is all about Black joy, cozy cuddles, and meaningful gifts that make kids feel seen — especially during the holidays.
