There are 17 different species of these adorable little guys.  I have always thought a hedgehog would make an awesome pet, my husband however does not agree.  The spines of a hedgehogs, are stiff hollow hairs & they are not poisonous. They are hard to remove & only fall out once in a hedgehogs lifetime.  A process called “quilling”.  Your little one can make their own hedgehog using their handprints for their spines!
