My kids are just like their mama … they love technology! They love their iPod touches and anytime we travel, whether it’s locally or on a long road trip, they always make sure it’s charged and in their backpack ready to go. What do you do to help protect an investment, such as an iPod touch meanwhile letting the little ones still have fun while watching their favorite movie or singing along to a learning app? Kambry had the chance to check out a fun and lovable cuddly creature called Woogie.

Woogie

Baby’s favorite stuffed animal. Meet the iPhone. This cuddly creature keeps the iPhone safe and protected while giving your young one something to treasure.

The squishy, huggable case and media player for iPod touch and iPhone … and the answer to the question on every child’s lips – “Can I play with your iPhone?”

Woogie is 50% stuffed animal (for your kids), 50% protective case (for your iPhone or iPod touch), and 100% fun! A protective pocket velcroes shut to hold your iPhone or iPod touch, while a touch-through screen protector lets you choose movies, apps or music for your child. Built-in speaker is powered by 2 (included) AAA batteries, or you can plug directly into headphones. Six fuzzy arms tuck under to prop up for viewing or to sit comfortably in your child’s lap.

You can use Woogie with the iPod touch or the iPhone to keep it protected while your little one cuddles up to play a game or watch a movie. When you get Woogie, you can download the free Iceberg Kids Sesame Street eBook sampler app for iPhone and iPod Touch.

Woogie Sesame Street Sampler App

Created specially for Woogie, this new Iceberg Kids Sesame Street eBook sampler app for iPhone and iPod Touch features selections from three popular books in the “Where Is the Puppy?” series: “Elmo’s Birthday,” “Big Bird’s Nest,” and “The Fix-It Shop.”

An interactive early reading experience, the app reads each story sample out loud and allows parents and kids to record their own voices. Each selection includes a link to purchase the full version of the book. Parents also have access to more than 150 Iceberg Kids additional titles, all Woogie-ready and available from the App Store. Itunes Keyword Search: Iceberg Kids. Woogie, from Griffin + Iceberg Kids, is the perfect combination of award-winning product design and fun, educational children’s media that matters. Your iPhone will thank you, but above all, your kids will love it.

Kambry is in love. No, really – she is in love with Woogie! Right out of the box, it’s ready to cuddle up with. We added two AA batteries that are included, put the battery pack back inside, plugged in the iPod touch (you can use an iPhone as well) and gave it to Kambry.

Woogie has a plastic covering that has a piece of Velcro on it to keep the iPod touch or iPhone in place, as well as a short speaker cord so you can use the speakers that are within Woogie or tuck that in and use headphones.

You don’t even have to take the iPod touch or iPhone out of the sleeve to switch apps, story books or movies. Use the covering, swipe your finger over it just as you would the iPod touch or iPhone itself and you are ready to go.

As seen in the image just below, you can see where the plug is that lead to the internal speakers.

With as much as Kambry runs around, I feel better knowing that she can take Woogie around with her, with her iPod touch safely tucked inside.

Overall, what do we think of Woogie? LOVE it! My only suggestion would be to add more colors and even to make something for the iPad because I can totally see myself cuddling up to a purple monster while drooling on my cuddly friend. Amazing concept – Love it! We highly recommend Woogie for anyone that has little ones that have their own iPod touch or that like to thief mom or dad’s iPhone when they aren’t looking.

You can purchase Woogie at Apple Stores and www.GriffinTechnology.com for $19.99.
