Shoulder Buddies Review & Giveaway (7/22)

Congrats Comment #145 - Stephanie

Magically, somehow, my kids are always zoned into the newest toys on the market. They seem to magnetically gravitate toward the toy that will be the “in” thing to have within the next few months. I was one step ahead of them this time and although I’m laughing about it, they haven’t seemed to notice because they’re busy loving their new Shoulder Buddies.

Shoulder Buddies are adorable, collectible figures that kids can wear and take with them everywhere! Each figure has an embedded magnet that connects with a Magic Coin in order to stay securely on a shirt, hat, backpack, and more. Shoulder Buddies aren’t just little friends and they’re more than just cute… each Shoulder Buddies has a special theme called a “Smarts” and each one teaches kids a special life lesson, from friendship to fire safety. Recently featured on ABC news as one of the best new toys at the NY Toy Fair 2011 and with 30 new characters expected out each year, Shoulder Buddies are sure to gain popularity quick!

My girls each received a Shoulder Buddies figure to start off their collections! Makenna got “Crush” who has a lovable smarts. Maddox got Princess who has royalty smarts. The girls thought the Shoulder Buddies were super cute and once they discovered they were magnetic and could attach almost anywhere via their coin, they were hooked.  I am pretty sure that once these commercials appear on our television screen, both girls will be asking for more new figures to add to their Shoulder Buddies collections.
