Win your very own Busy Hands Bear!

We recently took a vacation by car which means an hour of driving can feel like five with all of the fidgeting, questions, snack requests, and on and on. I was given the chance to take a Busy Hands Bear from Manhattan toys on our six hours road trip and am pleased to say that it did entertain little miss. The bear is very colorful and would be sure to grab the attention of any infant or toddler. It does rattle to it is a perfect gift to give to a little one who can grow into the snaps/button/zipper features. At first our little bear friend was just a pal to talk with on the car ride and show all of the trees and cows.  The bear has many different textures on his body including corduroy and canvas. When we stopped for a break my daughter discovered he had a "circle" on his shirt which later became known as a button. I was impressed that she was able to manipulate all of the snaps, zippers, and buttons. Each is very large and easy for small hands to figure out without becoming frustrated quickly...not long ago we had a meltdown over a shirt button because it was so tiny and she could not get the button in the right spot-oh the drama! I do think that with more practice with Edgar (this is our bear's name) my daughter will be more confident in buttoning and zippering and we will be able to move onto having her dress herself in the near future!  Right now Manhattan toy is offering my readers free shipping until 8/31/11-use the code TRAVELTOY. Manhattan toys are available online or at a speciality store near you! Here is our little Edgar:
