Aurora Review & Giveaway CLOSED

My kids love stuffed animals. I mean REALLY love. My son will hug and squeeze his stuffed animals. My daughter loves to carry them around. It's so sweet! Their newest stuffed animal is a "Mischief Monkey" from Aurora. The 10" Mischief Monkey is part of Aurora's Dreamy Eyes Collection which features all new styling - soft & fluffy with lovable expressions!They also sent us a "My Barnyard Friends" set that is part of the Baby Talk Collection. The set contains a cow, a pig, a duck and a rooster - all of whom make sounds! It's safe for kids of all ages, even infants.
My Take
The Dreamy Eyes Mischief Monkey is so cute it's unbelievable. Those eyes are just adorable and captivating; you can't help but hug him! He's incredibly soft and fluffy, and I seriously am thinking of keeping him all to myself. I may need to buy a few more of these Dreamy Eyes animals so the whole family will have one to cuddle that they don't have to share.
How cute is this set of little stuffed barnyard animals in their own barn? I love how the name of the animal is embroidered right on it. Each animal also makes it's sound, so this is a truly educational toy. By teaching shapes, sounds and letters all together, my kids will have an easier time recognizing the animal, its name and it's sound. These small animals are also soft and safe for babies of all ages. I can't wait to see how Baby #3 reacts to them!
Cost:
- The Dreamy Eyes Mischief Monkey is $13 + shipping. ($$$$)
- The My Barnyard Friends set is $23 + shipping. ($$$$$)
One very lucky reader will win either a Dreamy Eyes Mischief Monkey or a My Barnyard Friends set (your choice)!
