Pocoyo Squeeze and Play Plush Toy Review

Last month, I was mailed a box containing a Squeeze and Play Plush of the wildly popular Pocoyo.

About Pocoyo:The charming, vibrant and multi award-winning animated preschool series Pocoyo, already an international hit, is now brought to life for American preschoolers! 

Created by Spain’s Zinkia Entertainment, and broadcast in over 100 countries across the globe, the Pocoyo TV series airs in the U.S on Nick Jr. (seven days per week at 4.25 pm); PBS stations across 80% of the U.S.; Univision’s Planeta U (Saturday mornings at 8.30 am); and Discovery Familia.  Narrated by British actor Stephen Fry (Dr. Gordon Wyatt on Bones), the series follows the adventures of three-year-old Pocoyo (“little me” in Spanish), an inquisitive and fun-loving boy and his animal friends, Elly (the elephant), Pato (the duck) and Loula (the dog).  The show, packed with music, dance, and humor, engages the audience, encouraging children to learn through laughter.  Pocoyo, co-produced by ITV STUDIOS Global Entertainment and Zinkia, has attracted a host of accolades including a prestigious BAFTA (British Academy of Film and Television Arts) for Best Animated Preschool Series, three Pucinella Prizes at the Italian Cartoons on the Bay Festival and Best TV Series at the Annecy Cartoon Festival.
