Review & Giveaway: YooHoo & Friends

YooHoo & Friends now has their very own website!  You can check out the virtual world now for free. There is no activation code and the site is geared toward children 5-12 years old.

What is YooHoo & Friends?

YooHoo & Friends is a virtual world based upon characters created by Aurora World. The characters are based upon real animals in their natural habitat all over the world.

Some of them are endangered and children will be able to learn about each animal. Children will be able to choose and raise pets, decorate pet’s room, play games and watch YooHoo & Friends animations.*

How does it work?

Any child can register and adopt pets from the YooHoo & Friends characters. We encourage you to check out YooHoo & Friends plush available on WHERE TO BUY! Registration to our website is free and does not require any activation code to enter.

After adopting a pet, children can decorate a pet’s room, play games and earn Green points to decorate their pet’s room. They can also watch previews of the upcoming YooHoo & Friends animation series.*

Yoohoo & Friends

Yoohoo & Friends is a virtual world that is geared specifically for children between the ages of 5 to 12. The characters are based on animals from all over the world. Kids will learn about different animals and their habitats by going online and playing games or watching the animations.

My nephew is one of my favorite people in the whole world. I get giddy like a child every time I open a box and see something that I know he will enjoy. Last week I went over to his house and pulled out the Yoohoo & Friends plush animals and handed them to him. He picked up each one, looked up and smiled at me after each one. He kept touching them because they are so soft. His favorite was the one that had sound. He carried it around with him for about an hour and then he picked up the two keychains and went around the house clipping them on different things. He even put them in a little truck and drove them around. It was so cute! He even brings them in the car when him and my sister go somewhere. They were a big hit and would make a perfect Valentine's Day present for your little ones.

One of my readers will win a random selection from the YooHoo & Friends line (five inch plush animal) and a keychain.
Open to residents of the US and Canada
The prize will be mailed out by the sponsor
