Grab and Go Teddy Bear by KIDS JUKE BOX

Grab and Go is a patent-pending technology that allows retail locations to carry personalized products without the headaches of personalized products. Retailers can put one Teddy Bear on the shelf, and that bear comes with a software CD and connection cable. The customer purchases the bear and then goes home to complete the personalization. The end result is a teddy bear with a 50-second song, where the child's name is sung 8 times in the lyrics. This is one of the products that generated the most excitement at the 2006 Pomona toy show, said Daryl Ragsdale of Kids Juke Box. “Kids Juke Box has taken the guesswork out of personalized products,” he added. 2/8/2006 (Price: $35.00) [Add to my Inquiry Basket][?]
