Recommend an unusual doll or soft toy for 1 year old niece

My brother in law is doing me a huge favour and I'd like to take my niece a gift. I'm looking for an unusual doll or soft toy suitable for a one year old. Preferably something that can be washed I think.

TIA

I really want the jellycat prawn or lobster myself! I’d be over the moon if someone bought them for my dc!

Wow, some great suggestions! I love Jellycat too, but guess I was looking for something you don't see so often. The flamingo is great though!

I'm not sure a one year old would know what to do with a cactus Confused

Just cuddle it, it’s very squishy!

My DD has had a baby Stella (made by manhattan toys, amazon sell them) since she was 1 and she’s now 12 and still sleeps with her. You can buy clothes and things if you want but without that she’s very sweet with a magnetic dummy and very cuddly and safe.

Cuddle and kind

My 2 also had baby stella, and there are lots of clothes and soft accessories for them too.

Baby Stella is so cute. And there's a bassinet for them! Is the magnetic dummy safe for a one year old?
