What's Basically the Most Adorable Children's Gift I Can Imagine

Mark Wilson — Mon, 14 Dec 2009 13:00:00 EST

Here's the idea: your child scribbles an animal on Shidonni's website, they hand-sew a corresponding one-of-a-kind plush toy and mail it to you. Neat, right?

From the looks of this video, sweatshop laborers aren't stitching their fingers to your child's Christmas gift. Shidonni is just a small operation with a really good idea, actualizing a child's design into something they can hold.

I believe the cost is $85, and if you were interested in the gift for Christmas, you'd need to order by tomorrow, December 15th. No word on whether or not Shidonni will sew you one of the deadly tanks firing exploding ice cream cones that I drew as a kid. [Shiddoni]

Newsmy MP3 Dolls Could Be Your Kid's First Gadget

Elaine Chow — Tue, 16 Dec 2008 03:00:00 EST

It's never too early to get your kid attached to gadgets—these adorable mp3 playing dolls read storybooks, play music and speak to your babies, providing them with affection when you're feeling lazy.

Named Niu Niu and Man Man, after Chinese gadget company Newsmy's mascots, the dolls are mp3 players and "interactive learning devices." Besides loading the toys with your child's favorite songs, you can also record your voice, to be played back whenever your spawn is feeling your absence.

The controls for all the dolls' features are on their hands and feet. The data and battery boxes are shoved deep into their stuffed insides so you don't have to worry about electrocution. The dolls hold 2GB, play MP3 and WMA formats, go up to 75dB and use 3 AA batteries. And if the photoshop jobs are to be believed... they can alsohover! [imp3]

iDog MP3 Speaker Toy Goes Soft And Cuddly, At Last

Kit Eaton — Tue, 18 Nov 2008 06:07:33 EST

It's been a while since we mentioned the iDog from Tiger/Hasbro, because it was basically a dog that'd had its day: Until now that is, when Tiger have removed one of the toy's problems by adding cuddliness. It still has a speaker and does the same LED-flashing face and wiggling in reaction to your music, but it's now got a plush body just like your teddybear, so you can, er... snuggle up to its writhing body? Hmmm. Anyway, the iDog Soft Speaker is out now for about $35. [Hasbro via Dvice]

Tetris Plush Explodes With Sincerity

Our Japanese is somewhere between nonexistent and "you're speaking Korean dumbass," so we can't tell what these labels on the block pieces say. However, there's not much explanation needed to know that these Tetris Plush pillows are awesome in a way that only a supernova in the background can illustrate. All our favorite pieces are there, from that T piece, the the L, to the Z thing, to good old straighty, to...wait...what the hell is that?! [ToysnJoys via Nerd Approved]

Stop the presses and forget about the iPhone, the CES counter to Apple's second coming has been unveiled. We've got our mitts on the Fun Friends modified Blackberry Pearl, the latest attempt at merging plush technology and communications. The first thing we did? Placed an order for some female 'company' based on the recommendations of a handful of card-toting businessmen lining the strip. – Karson Thompson
