The technology driven future is here – there is simply no denying it. But in this fast paced, information sensation overload, get it fast with the press-of-a-button-centric world where we can pay bills and order groceries in one swift motion on our smartphones, we can’t expect our tots to be able to keep up. That is why I am so excited to see child friendly technology products pop up. And every now and then a children’s product review opportunity comes across my desk that I just cannot resist.
Allow me to introduce you to your new best friend: The Bluebee Pals. They are a new interactive Bluetooth enabled plush toy and learning tool from Kayle Concepts. Available in 5 different animals, Bluebee Pals are a huggable plush toy that sings, reads and answers phone calls. The advanced technology includes lip synchronization allowing the animal’s “mouth” to move while singing and reading your child’s favorite storybooks or learning apps. You can even surprise and entertain your family and friends when you use your Bluebee Pal as a wireless speaker phone! Bluebee Pals are revolutionary plush companions. They are Bluetooth® enabled interactive toys that connect to apps when “paired” to Bluetooth enabled devices.
The Bluebee Pals Bluetooth enabled stuffed animal is honest-to-goodness the raddest thing I have seen. My kids are absolutely enthralled with our teddy Bluebee Pal. I set our teddy up with the iStory App and he read a Madagascar story to the kids while his mouth moved along with the words as the speaker from his tummy read the story loud and clear. I haven’t tried to answer the phone with our teddy just yet, but I can’t wait to! I was super impressed with the speaker clarity and the ease of setting the Bluebee Pal up to my smartphone.
After their iStory App story was over, my daughter played her favorite CareBears game on the iPad as our Bluebee Pals teddy played the music through his speaker as well. It was really rad!
The Bluebee Pals are soft and squishable
The Bluebee Pals Bluetooth enabled device can be paired with your smartphone, tablet, laptop, or any other Bluetooth enabled device. The pairing process is very easy and very fast. All you have to do is simply have your Bluebee Pal and your device within 3 feet of each other and then press the right ear of the Pal and it’ll take care of the rest (see Bluebee Pals instructions for more details). Bluebee Pals are spot clean only.
