Frosty Festivities: Pillow Pets Review & {GIVEAWAY!!}



Looking for a cute stuffed toy for your kid for Christmas but don't want another stuffed animal laying around the house taking up space? Pillow Pets are just what you're looking for. They were invented by a San Diego mom of two who was sick of having so many stuffed animals in the house that served no purpose besides taking up space. Pillow Pets are functional because they turn from a stuffed animal into a pillow. They were also the
Winner of a 2009 iParenting Media Excellent Product Award and the 2009 Dr. Toy Best Vacation Product Award.


(From the Pillow Pets website):

"Pillow Pets are a pillow and a stuffed animal, snapped up into one. Made of ultra-soft, machine washable chenille, Pillow Pets transform from a standard size pillow into a friendly, warm and snuggly pet with one strap. Pillow Pets are available in 20 adorable animal varieties that live in the jungle, on the farm and in the sea. They make ideal naptime buddies, travel pals and all-around fun, furry friends."

Top 5 reasons to own a Pillow Pet:

1. Affordable, adorable fun and functionality

2. May postpone live animal ownership with 20 stuffed varieties to choose from

3. Cuddly like a puppy with ultra softness for hugging and sleeping

4. No clean up required and no shedding; durable and machine washable

5. Always up for anything - naptime, playtime, travel time - anytime!

Pillow Pets come in a variety of different animals including:
A moose


and many more! We chose the penguin for Graham (my husband is a huge Pittsburgh Penguins fan and is doing anything he can to instill this same love into Graham. He is hoping the stuffed penguin helps his cause). Graham really likes stuffed animals right now and is always hugging and kissing (or biting, whatever) the penguin.


It is surprisingly soft and makes a perfect pillow for him. We took it with us on our Thanksgiving road trip and I have to admit, I even used it in the car for a little nap! These are such cute toys and make a perfect Christmas gift.
