When I first opened the box with our Yoohoo and Friends inside I gasped as though they look pretty cute on the website you have absolutely no idea until you see one of these guys in person. Yoohoo and Friends from Aurora are one part ridiculously adorable plush and one part online game. Each Yoohoo and Friend comes with his own unique code which you enter onto the Yoohoo and Friends website which then gives you a interactive online version of your new friend as well.
Yoohoo and Friends look like something out of a ultra cute cartoon but each plush is based on a real animal, many of which are endangered, and many of the online activities help teach the children about the animal they have adopted. I'm particularlly fond of the Red Squirrel myself and he makes the cutest little chittering sound when you press him. Plus who could resist those huge eyes? Plus he actually happens to be an endangered species in Europe! There are plenty of other animals to choose from as well including a Lemur, Fennec, Panda, and the classic white Yoohoo with colored tails.
The online aspect of Yoohoo and Friends is pretty simple. Parents must register their children and the accounts are free and can be canceled at any time at the parent's request. Children earn points by playing games and can interact with their pets via their pets own little bedroom. Though the online aspect is pretty cool my favorite part of these plush is purely how incredibly adorable they are. Connor thinks the sound affects are pretty hilarious as well. Though the online aspect is certainly a huge bonus!
You can visit the Yoohoo and Friends website to learn more or pick up your own Yoohoo and Friends on the Aurora website!

The pink Sugar Glidder is so adorable. I was lucky enough to see a Sugar Glidder in real life during the Thanksgiving Holiday. A friend has two that she is raising. So cute and loveable. I was shocked when I saw them. Love them and might consider getting one in the future. Thanks for the giveaway. It's awesome.
