Things I Can't Say: Hallmark Interactive Storybuddy Review and Giveaway

Hallmark Interactive Storybuddy Review and Giveaway

When I was at Blissdom, I won an Interactive Storybuddy from Hallmark. My boys LOVE this thing!

The one I won is Cooper the Bear. As you read the storybook to your children and Cooper, when you say certain phrases, Cooper responds.

My boys' faces lit up when they heard Cooper talking. They've also figured out what some of the phrases are that Cooper will respond to and will say them to him, even when we aren't reading the story.

You can see a little bit of how he works in this short video clip. Yes, I'm in my pajamas...it was bedtime!

There are two more Cooper books right now besides the one that we have and Cooper says more phrases with each book: my boys want the other books! Also, there are iPhone/iPad apps for the Storybuddies...I really need to get one of those one of these days!

There is also a Watson the Raccoon Storybuddy with his own set of books. More Storybooks and Storybuddies will be released throughout the year.

These interactive storybooks are a great way to keep your children engaged in storytime.

WIN IT! One of you will win a Cooper Storybuddy with an Interactive Storybook from Hallmark.

To enter: If your email is not visible in your profile, you must leave it with your comment(s). Winner will be notified via email and have 48 hours to respond or a new winner will be chosen. US only, please. Giveaway will end at 9pm ET on 2/26.
