Celebrate the humble joy of St. Francis of Assisi, founder of the Franciscan Order and patron saint of animals and the environment, with this hand-painted Catholic peg doll. Crafted from solid birch wood and standing 3.5 inches tall, each doll is made to order using non-toxic acrylic paints, then sealed with a non-toxic matte varnish for lasting durability.
This saint figurine makes a meaningful gift for Baptism, First Communion, or Confirmation—and a treasured addition to your child’s faith-based toy collection. It’s also perfect for Easter baskets, Catholic homeschool resources, saint-themed displays and playtime, altar décor, or as a heartfelt gift for Catholic teachers, catechists, godparents, or RCIA sponsors.
St. Francis is the patron saint of animals and the environment. In the 13th century, he founded the Franciscan Order and embraced a life of simplicity, poverty, and praise for all God’s creation. His legacy of peace and reverence for the natural world continues to inspire those who seek to live with compassion and humility. This Catholic peg doll offers a beautiful way to introduce his story to children and honor his enduring legacy.
Note: Because each saint peg doll is made to order, each saint is unique, and slight variations in color, brushstroke, or design may occur. Peg dolls are intended for decoration, supervised play, or educational use and are not suitable for teething or mouthing.
