Smooshies!

No, this isn't a picture of me after being in the car with my children for 20 hours. I kind of felt like this, but no. This is a picture of one of the many things that saved my sanity. This is a Smooshie. I can not tell you how much I love this toy. The great folks at One2One Network sent one for the kids to play with, I only wish they'd sent two!

Smooshies are sold exclusively at Joann Stores. You can buy a package that comes with a body, arms, legs, eyes, mouth and various other face parts for $9.99. For 1.99 more, you can buy individual parts.

Not only are they reasonably priced, but have won awards also! Not just any awards either, but they won the 2009 TOP Toy of the Year Award given by Creative Child Magazine and the Dr. Toy Best Vacation Children’s Products award.

I have pictures, lots of pictures, of my children fighting over, er I mean playing with, their Smooshie. However, they are at home and I am here. I promise you'll get pictures of my hooligans playing with their fantastic Smooshie. In the mean time, go buy your own Smooshie and let me know how much you love it also!
