Summer Birthday Bash! Softy Soakers Review & Giveaway


When it comes to stuffed animals, my favorite company is Aurora. They have lots of different styles to choose from including the Yoo Hoo and Friends, Dreamy Eyes, and Milly The Pinkest Kitty, and we have some each of them. The newest items from Aurora are perfect for bath time or any time at all. The Softy Soakers have arrived and they are really making a splash.


For our review, we received the octopus Softy Soaker and my daughter loved him. She walked around with him all day and was very excited when I let her bring him in the bath tub. Originally he was cute but a little flat.  But after a minute of soaking in the water, he miraculously inflated. Once we were done with bath time, we were able to easily dry him off with a towel. He did not leak out water, so she was still able to play with him. In a few days, he shrinks back to normal size and you can do the whole thing all over again. 








The Softy Soakers are only $10 a piece on the Aurora World website, making them a fun and affordable toy that kids everywhere are going to love. They are available in lots of fun shapes including the octopus, turtle, seahorse, dolphin, shark, and crocodile. Kids will want to collect them all and will love sharing them with their friends.


In honor of Summer Birthday Bash, one lucky winner will receive a Softy Soaker of their own from Aurora (companies choice).
