That is when Sheepy’s magic shines most.As his story unfolds, we discover that Sheepy comes from the Dreamworld, a gentle realm where kindness guides your imagination, softness is strength, and dreaming never stops.Sheep Dust is the magical sparkle that trails behind Sheepy as he floats through the Dreamworld. Made of cotton candy fluff, moon dust, and sweet dreams, it appears naturally wherever Sheepy drifts or with a gentle sprinkle from his little hooves. Sheep Dust inspires imagination and, with enough kind thoughts, helps sweet dreams come true.To explore this feeling more deeply, you can visit our Sparkle Breaths on Pinterest.Sheeplings are a reflection of you, curious dreamers shaped by imagination, softness, and kindness.
