YooHoo & Friends Review and Giveaway

My boys always enjoy getting surprises in the mail, and recently they were surprised by some adorable furry friends--YooHoo & Friends!

"We have some very exciting new additions to the YooHoo & Friends line including new plush and other merchandise" says Michael Kessler, SVP of Sales at Aurora. “This product line is a smash hit across the nation, so we have really invested heavily in product development to bring the absolute best items to market. Not only are these creatures based on endangered species from around the globe, but they are entertaining and educational"…Kids of all ages, adults and collectors love the five and eight inch YooHoo & Friends characters, which make a unique and funny sound when you squeeze their tummies.

We were fortunate to receive Pammee and Shooga 5” YooHoos (ARV $7.00), as well as a Kookee keychain (ARV $3.00). Smiley Boy loved them! He thought they were so cute (how can you not love those huge eyes?), often cuddling with them and kissing them. He enjoyed playing hide and seek with them too. I’d hide the YooHoos, and when he’d find them, I’d squeeze them so he could hear the fun sounds.

Little Music Man thinks the YooHoos are cute too, and since he loves using the computer, he’s able to go onto the YooHoo & Friends website, which is a free interactive website where kids can play games, get “greens,“ and use the “greens” to buy items for their online room! Kids will also learn all about the endangered animals that the YooHoos represent, and so much more!

Children who don’t have YooHoos yet can still play games and participate in other activities online, but don’t be surprised if they start asking to get their own YooHoos because the characters online are super cute as well!

YooHoo & Friends are so much fun and are just so adorable, and I think it’s neat that they help to teach kids about endangered species at the same time.
