Aurora sent me a donation to send off to the charity of my choice and one to giveaway on my blog. They sent the YooHoo & Friends raccoon and fox.
Kids of all ages, young an old will enjoy the five and eight inch YooHoo & Friends characters. My son, especially loves the cute little sounds they make when you push on their little tummies. I had to snatch it right back out of his hands before he decided that it was his new toy. He sister already understood it was a donation so she was yelling at her brother, “It’s a donation bubbie”.
The 2010 introductions include the brand new 24-inch original YooHoo & Friends in pink and blue (MSRP: $109.99), which are great for rounding out retail displays. A birthday assortment includes two styles and each plays the song “Happy Birthday” when squeezed (5”, MSRP $7.99).
Aurora is another company that also includes a free, interactive Web site www.yoohoofriends.com with the purchase of one of the YooHoo & Friends plush animals. Actually, it doesn’t even require an activiation code. I encourage you to learn more about the YooHoo & Friends’ endangered animals.
“Fans everywhere write to tell us that the Web site makes learning about creatures in their natural habitats fun and entertaining for their children.”
When on the site, you can play games, download wallpapers, calendars and icons, watch previews for the upcoming YooHoo & Friends animations and adopt and raise YooHoo & Friends. The YooHoo & Friends are forest creatures and their story is set in a forest called Yootopia, which features the “Tree of Life.” Your kids can join YooHoo & Friends on magical journeys that teach them to value friendship, harmony, honesty and courage. Which are life lessons we all need to learn and practice.
For Valentines:
YooHoo Greetings” which combines the two most popular selling Valentine’s Day items – a plush toy and greeting card. Showing its soft side, Aurora’s “I Wuv U” Bears and “U Make Me Wild” Monkeys are sure to tug at the heartstrings of your special someone. Pearls Before Swine’s cheeky Valentine editions, based on the world famous comic strip, round out Aurora’s product highlights for its Valentine’s catalog.
Welcoming Spring and Easter, YooHoo & Friends are available in six styles sporting bunny ears (5”, MSRP $6.99). The graduation themed YooHoo & Friends are available in yellow, pink and blue; each makes a sound, holds a ribbon scroll and dons a graduation cap that reads, “Big Dreams” (5”, MSRP $6.99).
The YooHoo & Friends line also includes four “WannaBes” featuring YooHoo & Friends dressed as other popular animals – pig, bear, frog and panda. The Springtime WannaBes are available in three styles as either a pink or purple bunny or duck. WannaBes have removable hoodies (5” with sound, MSRP $8.99), and retailers will appreciate 12-piece display box for impulse buys. “YooHoo WannaBes encourage kids to play, pretend and exercise their imaginations, which is reinforced as they head over to the virtual world of yoohoofriends.com,” Kessler says.
For Easter:
For Easter, Aurora’s bestselling YooHoo & Friends, one of the world’s most popular selling plush lines, is available in six styles and welcome Spring sporting bunny ears (5” with sound, MSRP $6.99). The cute and creative mischief-making YooHoo & Friends WannaBes are available in three styles as either a pink or purple bunny or duck. Each features bright colors with removable hoodies (5” with sound, MSRP $8.99). Retailers will appreciate YooHoo & Friends being sold as part of the 12-piece display box.
There are four new styles joining the Dreamy Eyes line whose cast of characters already includes Bashful the Rabbit, Loveable the Lamb and Dewie the Duck (10”, MSRP $11.99). New for Easter 2010 are the five-inch bee, butterfly and frog – each makes a funny sound when squeezed (MSRP $6.49).
