Zoocchini…Like the Vegetable…Only Cuter!

“Roarrrr”  That’s what my son said when we opened up Lars the Lion’s “can” and took him out.  We recently received this super soft and adorable plush animal from Zoocchini and it’s my son’s new favorite cuddle toy.  My son has some stuffed animals but not many because of his allergies.  Thankfully, the entire line is BPA and lead-free and the fur is more like plush (as opposed to “hair”) which makes it less likely to be allergenic. Each animal is packaged in a clear, plastic decorative Safari bucket.  The animals are clean and untouched when they arrive in little tots hands.  Here is a little more information about Zoocchini from the site:

Welcome to the wonderful world of ZOOCCHINI a place for the softest, most adorable friends on the planet…at least we think so! Our original ZOOCCHINI bucket friends are the ideal gift to give or get. We guarantee the quality and “cuteness” of all our friends!

My son loves his “roar.”  He snuggles with him on the couch, takes him in and out of his “house” (can), and talks to him.  The plush animals are well-made and I like that their faces are friendly (even on animals you don’t necessarily consider to be friendly).  Zoocchini‘s line of plush animals can be collected and the can can be used for storing other toys.  My son likes to put toys in it and then take them out (it’s  like a game for him).  Each plush animal retails for $29.95 and is available for purchase from select retailers.  Please visit the website to find a location near you.  Be sure to check out the Barnyard, Safari, and Ocean collections of plush animals and their new line of Crutch Critters (perfect for helping little ones deal with using a crutch because of an injury).

Profuse thanks to Zoocchini and Peekaboo Picks for this review opportunity!
