Some new critters for Easter!

I fell in love with the adorable cuteness of International Plaything's Calico Critters line last Halloween when we did a giveaway of the most adorable Halloween set of Calico Critters. I liked them so much that my little chipmunk in his ghost outfit is still sitting on my bookcase by my desk. I describe their little fuzzy bodies almost "looking as if they were dipped in candy coating" as its sort of a soft peach fuzz that gives them almost a plush look even though most of the toys in the Calico Critters line are small dolls with movable limbs that allow you to play with them in their play sets and doll houses. They make me wish I had a little girl to play with as I'm dying to get my hands on one of the Calico Critter doll houses or play sets!

With Easter coming I could think of nothing cuter to stuff your Easter baskets with than a Calico Critter of your very own. You'll be super excited to know that Calico Critters does have a line of plush that are as soft and velvety as you could imagine. We've been squishing and hugging them all day but we'd love to share the cuteness and find them new homes amongst our readers in honor of Easter! With that said I have a Calico Critters Willow Cottontail Rabbit and a Calico Critters Penny Petite Bear to give away two two readers. The clothes are removable and interchangeable so you can dress your Critters up any way you wish and if you have a little boy on your Easter list there is no reason to leave him out of the Calico Critters as they are just as cute in a little tee shirt and baseball cap if you have one the right size or even just sans clothes! heh.

That treehouse is amazing! But then again, so is the Emergency Response set. My son is a little young yet for that one, but he's very much into policemen and firemen, ambulances - all the noisy flashy cars.

I think we'd love to win a bunny. Thanks!

The Becky Beaver visits the Dentist set is really cute and would be ideal for the kids to play with before dentist visits! It wouldn't really matter which one I got if I win, but if I have to choose, I pick the bear.

I love everything about these little things. If I could afford it, I would buy the whole set up for my daughter who loves to play with them at the toy store. I love the Buttercup Cat Family the best (or should I say, my daughter loves them). If given the choice, I would choose the rabbit

jen said...

I like the Little Builder Tool Belt. I would have to probably pick the bunny.jen2418@hotmail.com

Vicky H. said...

This all reminds me of an old cartoon I used to watch called Maple Town. Very cute.
Well, I think the Buttercup Twins are simply adorable. It helps that I'm a fan of cute kitties. If I were to win, I wouldn't mind having either plush to give to my God-daughter, but let's just say the rabbit would be my first choice.
