Pillow Pet Plush Blanket Review & Giveaway ~ The Ultimate Holiday Gift Guide

A *hot* holiday item this year is the Pillow Pets.  We've all seen the commercials and have heard our kids and grandkids say they want one.  But have you seen the commercials for the Pillow Pets Plush Blankets?  When I saw the commercial I knew right away the kids would want the blankets.  So I got the Frog Pillow Pet Plush Blanket and just like the original Pillow Pets, the plush blanket are so, so soft and snuggly, made of high quality chenille.  The blankets measure 4' x 3', the perfect size for your child or even for a lap blanket for an adult - or perhaps for an 85lb Golden Retriever named Duke :-)

If you remember from my previous review, my daughter has been sleeping with her Pillow Pet ever since she got it from Aunt Amy for her birthday in August.  Unlike my daughter, my son doesn't sleep with his anymore but he plays with it all the time and uses it while watching TV etc.  Well.  When he kids saw the frog blanket they went berserk.  It's never good to have one item when you have two children that both want it.  So for the sake of all parties involved, I believe Santa will be bringing another Pillow Pet Plush Blanket for Christmas this year.

Speaking of Christmas, I'm sure there are a few of you reading this that would love to win a Frog Pillow Pet Plush Blanket.  Am I right?  Of course I am!

My Pillow Pets® Challenges Children to be Word Whizzes


My Pillow Pets® Challenges Children to be Word Whizzes

How many words can you come up with based on the names of Pillow Pets™?


Oceanside, CA – November 1, 2010 – “What’s in a name?” Shakespeare famously posed that question and now the people behind My Pillow Pets® are asking it, although asking it with a twist. In November, My Pillow Pets® is launching a contest on its Facebook page. Each day, the company will post the name of one of their popular Pillow Pets™  plush folding stuffed animals on the page and challenge kids to create as many words as they can using the letters in its name. The person who comes up with the most words posted on the page (and as defined in an English dictionary) wins!

Fans just need to write on the Pillow Pets™ Facebook wall as many words as their children can create using those letters.  In the event multiple people come up with the same number of words, a drawing will be held to determine the winner. One winner will be chosen per week. Winners will also be recognized on the new Pillow Pets™ blog (www.mypillowpetsblog.com).

”We’re excited to come up with new and engaging ways for children to interact with the world of My Pillow Pets® online,” said Jennifer Telfer, founder of My Pillow Pets®. “We think a challenge like this is both fun and educational, proving that those two concepts are not mutually exclusive.”

Made of ultra-soft chenille, My Pillow Pets® plush folding stuffed animals are much more than a stuffed animal. With a strap that closes underneath to transform the pillow into a friendly pet, they are an ideal travel pal, naptime buddy and all-around cuddly friend. My Pillow Pets®plush folding stuffed animals are available in jungle animals, farm critters and sea creatures – 36 different animals to choose from – and are just one part of the My Pillow Pets® family of products, which also includes books, blankets, slippers, and backpacks.

Order your authentic “My Pillow Pets®” or “Pillow Pets™” plush folding stuffed animal now for the holidays, a birthday or just a special treat for a child anytime.  All My Pillow Pets® products are available at www.lovemypillowpets.com.

About Pillow Pets
Since 2003, My Pillow Pets® plush folding stuffed animals have been bringing smiles to the faces of all ages. The concept for the snuggly companions was the brainchild of a San Diego-based mother of two, who had grown tired of picking up stuffed animals strewn across her children’s rooms. What began with the simple goal of transforming a stuffed animal into a functional item for children has grown into an amazing jungle of popular retail and wholesale products including plush folding stuffed animals, books, backpacks, blankets, and slippers.
