It’s time to ring in the weekend with another TGIF Twitter Giveaway!

This week we are talking about and giving away some original plush pals from Aurora’s line of YooHoo & Friends. Aurora is one of the leading companies for high-end, soft, and huggable toy designs in the global gift industry.

The original YooHoo & Friends line encourages children to learn about animals (many endangered) and the environments they live in. Through their interactive virtual online world children can learn about their animal’s environment, play games, puzzles, and print coloring sheets.

.

These big eyed, fluffy-tailed plush animals all make their own distinct animal noise when their tummys are squeezed. You can find YooHoo and Friends offered in over 100 variations in size and theme, making them perfect for collecting.

Join us Friday May 7th to learn more about these lovable plush pals and enter for your chance to win!

Tuesday, February 23rd, 2010

..

If you know a little girl with a love for imaginative play and  enchanting fantasy life- you will not want to miss our TGIF Giveaway this week!

Why- you ask?

Well word got out about how rockin’ all of you make our Friday giveaways  and one of the brands on our site wanted in on the fun. They are upping the ante this week by offering  several exclusive prizes, including a supped up  Grand Prize Pack for one lucky winner!

So who is this cool brand we speak of ?  It is- none other than- one of the hottest new toy brands we saw many little girls begging for this past holiday season- Bella Sara!

..

Here at The Big Toy Book, we’ve been getting requests from readers for more information on some of the hot new Bella Sara items  for months now and from the sneak peek we got at Toy Fair- we can totally see why.

..

What we love about Bella Sara is that not only does it allow children to unlock a 100% safe  virtual online world of endless possibility for imaginative play, but it is AFFORDABLE for all families- which is SO important.

..

For those of you unfamiliar Bella Sara here is an excerpt from their site:

Bella Sara™ is a magical world of horses where children can expand their imaginations through play. The enchanting fantasy world of  Bella Sara both inspires and empowers children with positive messages and the ability of unlocking a magical experience into the world of North of North at BellaSara.com.

Giving Parents A Choice & A Voice: Discovery Wonder Wall Projector Giveaway!

Monday, February 8th, 2010

Whether you Facebook, Tweet, blog or participate in forums, in 2010 there is one thing we all have in common- and that is the love of connecting with others and having our voice heard.

Today we exchange advice, parenting struggles, shopping tips and sometimes just random thoughts as regularly as we eat our meals. And while all of these exchanges are done virtually (and sometimes in just 140 characters)- over time there is a very real trust and friendship that is built from it.

The Big Toy Book is similar in that the site gives parents and gift buyers a choice and a voice in the toy world, just as your favorite forums may give you a choice and a voice in the parenting world. It’s not just a website that provides you with toy information. It allows you to easily comparison shop, shop by specific need & it is a growing community that encourages members to share their product and shopping experiences with each other.

If you follow @thebigtoybook on Twitter, you are well aware that they love to connect with their community and offer chances to win some of the hottest toys available.

So, this being the week of their  official blog launch they wanted to do something BIG!

… The Discovery Wonderwall Entertainment Projector – BIG!

With this projector  you can make every night movie night. Watch TV, DVDs, home videos, and even play your favorite video games up to 90 inches (diagonally) on any wall in your home, or on the ceiling!  This projector is sold in stores for $119, but today you can win it!

Here’s the scoop–

We want to hear your voice!

Visit www.thebigtoybook.com and leave a comment for any toy your child currently has and let us know what your honest opinion of it is!

Do they play with it every day? Is it collecting dust? … Did you remove the batteries because it was too noisy?

We want the whole truth and nothing but the truth!

Then come back here to the blog and let us know which toy you commented on.

It’s that easy!

Each entrant is allowed 2 entries. Please leave separate comments for each.

Contest runs Monday, February 8th through Sunday, February 21st

Good luck!

Winner will be chosen via random.org on Monday, Feb 22 and posted here on TBTB blog. Please be sure to leave your email address so that we may contact you directly. If we do not hear back from the original winner in 48 hours we reserve the right to pick another winner.
