Kindness makes the world go round. It is an act that always goes a long way as it positively impacts both the giver and the receiver, fostering a sense of community and a connected society.\n

A mom named Helen shared a heartwarming story about the lengths one company went in order to return a precious toy.\n

Namely, Helen and her young son Blake was having a blast at the Pleasureland Amusements arcade in Whitby, Yorkshire. The day was filled with joy and laughter, but sadly, once they went home, they realized Blake\u2019s favorite toy, a purple sloth toy, Slothy, was left behind.\n

In an attempt to track the toy down, Helen contacted the arcade, but she was told that no such toy had been turned in to lost and found.\n

Blake was extremely sad because he had Slothy from the day he was born and the toy meant the world to him.\n

Helen tried to purchase another toy exactly like Slothy, but her attempts were to no avail.\n

Suddenly, she received an unexpected message from Pleasureland Amusements: Slothy had been found!\n

Overjoyed, she shared the news with Blake, who beamed with happiness. She asked if the staff could mail Slothy back, as they were not local. Luckily, they happily agreed, and a few days later, a parcel arrived.\n

The package arrived with several other surprises. There were two other toys and three packages of candy. The touching note that came with Slothy read, \u201cWe thought Pablo (as we called him before knowing he was Slothy) might get scared during his journey, so we sent him with a friend and some snacks to share when he got back home safe and sound. We also included a fidget pop to keep him from getting bored. We hope Pablo, alias Slothy, remains safe in the future.\u201d\n

Helen was beyond grateful for this kind act that she decided to share the story and the note on her Facebook page. She praised the kindness by the staff at Pleasureland and encouraged her friends to visit the place.\n

In no time, her post attracted the attention of hundreds of people who were moved to tears by the heartwarming story.\n

The staff at Pleasureland were met with widespread appreciation, including a \u201cfive gold stars\u201d rating from one reader.\n
