The Big Five
You don't have to travel to Africa to meet The Big Five – with Hoptimist, you can get up close. So close, in fact, that you can give them a little nudge and watch them bounce with joy. Because at Hoptimist, The Big Five aren't looking for prey, but a smile and good humor. Here you'll meet a strong buffalo, a cute rhinoceros, a spotted leopard, a listening elephant, and a majestic lion. They are wild, but in a sweet way – and make everyday life a little more fun.

With a strong belief in the power of a smile, Gustav Ehrenreich created his happy Hoptimist movement in the late 1960s. The goal was to create a figure that served as a constant reminder to stay positive and optimistic. For even though the 1960s are often referred to as "The Swinging Sixties," the decade was marked by unrest. Therefore, Ehrenreich's design was a welcome source of joy in an otherwise turbulent time.
Bimble and Bumble represent the very first Hoptimists from the designer's hand: a dress-clad girl with smiling eyes and an attentive boy with a split on his head. The happy Hoptimists are now part of Danish design history and bring joy all over the world. The figures come in four different sizes and a wide selection of colors that spread lots of vitality, humor, and joy.
There is guaranteed to be a Hoptimist for every occasion and every person.
