New TOY Alert That Will Have Your Kids Saying, "I Want One!" Mine Did!



It's a toy!
It's an accessory!
It's adorable!

Shoulder Buddies, are the cutest, colorful toy "accessory" around and were recently featured on ABC News as one of the best new toys of 2011.

Product Description:
Shoulder Buddies (www.shoulderbuddies.com) are adorable collectible figures that kids can wear and take with them everywhere they go. Each figure has an embedded magnet that connects with a Magic Coin in order to stay securely on a shirt, hat, backpack, etc. They come in a variety of themes and colors – with over 30 new characters per year – so there’s a Shoulder Buddy (or two, or more) to appeal to everyone. They are especially great for summer traveling and camp!


Available now at Toys R Us and select Hallmark, Learning Express and Paradise Shops stores. SRP $5.99

What I Can Tell You:
We recently received two Shoulder Buddies to review. My son and daughter love them, in fact, I plan on getting myself one (Pirate's Adventure).

My daughter wore hers to school the first day we got it and everyone loved it. In fact, the teacher mentioned it to me during a morning meeting and asked where she could get one for her daughter.

The Magic Coin that comes with each character is a magnetic that goes under the article of clothing you want to attached the buddy to. Simply place underneath, put the buddy over the fabric and you have company for the day.

The Shoulder Buddies have a back story that I found unnecessary but my kids loved.

The Story

The Shoulder Buddy Smarts come from a magical wishing star, and inside that star is the Land of Understand. Shoulder Buddies go to the "School of Smarts" so they can earn their Fluffles on top of their head to fly. Once they have learned their "Smarts" they fly down from the Land of Understand and look for a Buddy to journey with and share their "Smarts".

Just call us Shoulder Buddies from the Land of Understand,
Breezin' through the skies, looking to land.
Each one of us has a special "Smart,"
A wonderful message that comes from our heart.
We want to share our "Smarts" with you,
So you can reveal your "Smarts" too!
Take us along everywhere you go...
On your shoulders, hair and hats you know!
Collect us, trade us, and give us a home!
Let's journey together... wherever you roam!

While the age on the toy says 4-8, I believe they will be loved by children of all ages (excluding 3 and under).


I am so happy to inform you that the company has authorized me to host a giveaway for one of my readers.

The Giveaway:  One Lucky Winner will win 2 Shoulder Buddies.
