Rick Dieterle ("Dee-ter-Lee"), founder of Truthkins and Love Your Neighbor LLC, has launched a new line of faith-based plush toys designed to help children understand their emotions and discover their worth in Christ. Each Truthkins set includes two plush characters representing opposing feelings-like Angry and Cheerful or Weak and Strong-along with a reminder wristband, Bible blanket, and illustrated storybook.
What started as one dad's search for better tools to help his kids navigate big feelings has become Truthkins-a small New Hampshire business creating faith-based plush toys that are already finding their way into family homes across the country just in time for the holiday season.

Rick launched Truthkins through Love Your Neighbor LLC after struggling to find toys that did more than just entertain. He wanted something that could actually help children understand their emotions while reinforcing their identity and worth in Christ. When he couldn't find it on the shelves, he built it himself.

Each Truthkins set centers on two plush characters representing opposing feelings. The first three sets feature Angry and Cheerful, Jealous and Thankful, and Weak and Strong. The two plushies in each set are the same size and designed to fit inside each other interchangeably-a hands-on way for kids to see that they can move from one feeling to another. When a child physically pulls Cheerful out of Angry or Strong out of Weak, they experience a tangible representation of the transformation God offers.

Beyond the plushies, every set includes a silicone reminder wristband printed with a Bible verse specific to that emotional pairing. Kids can wear the wristband to school, church, or around the house as a constant reminder of the truth they're learning. Each set also comes with a 12-inch by 12-inch Bible blanket embroidered with scripture, soft enough to become a bedtime favorite. The illustrated storybook rounds out the set

The blankets are designed with snaps along the edges. As families collect more Truthkins sets, the blankets connect together. Collect all twelve sets and the individual blankets form one large 4-foot by 3-foot mega blanket-a cozy keepsake covered in scripture that kids helped build one set at a time.

An illustrated companion storybook comes with each set, bringing the characters and their emotional journeys to life through adventures kids will want to read again and again. The stories reinforce the same faith-based messages as the plushies, giving parents another tool for meaningful conversations with their children.

Three sets are available now, with nine more planned for release in the coming months. Rick designed Truthkins as a collectible line, with each generation featuring twelve complete sets before new designs are introduced.

The response from families has been immediate and personal. Parents have shared how the plushies help their children talk about feelings that were previously hard to express. Kids have latched onto their favorite characters, using them as puppets during playtime and carrying the wristbands as daily reminders.

Truthkins ships from New Hampshire with free shipping on orders over forty-nine dollars and a money-back guarantee. Rick wanted to remove any barrier for families looking to try something new, and he stands behind every product that leaves the warehouse.

For parents seeking a meaningful gift this holiday season-something their children will actually use and learn from-Truthkins offers a different kind of toy. It's a small business built by a dad who wanted better options for his own kids and decided to create them for everyone else's too.
