Talking Soap®
The Talking Soap ® is a real bar of soap that talks! Launched
this past June with its first ship date in December, the Talking Soap
features programmable messages. Talk about making bath-time fun again
for kids!
A typical retail version of the soap
has separate monologues depending on whether it’s wet or not,
and also features a light. The company stresses that the soaps are
completely safe, non-toxic and designed for children’s delicate skin.
The Finished Product
The Talking Soap has also found its way into the promo world via inquiries
from Britney Spears’ marketing team, recently. They proposed
a custom-made item featuring excerpts from Britney’s smash hit
“Ooops! I Did It Again!” which would play when you first
pick up the soap for about :10 seconds and, if you drop the soap in
the tub, play a reprise for :05 seconds. From International World
of Toys.
