Lovable Bluetooth Buddies

Whenever technology comes together with toys, what's created is usually something hard and plastic. That's why the Bluebee Pals from Kayle Concepts are so special. These soft, fluffy, stuffed animals are packed with technology, but they're also great to hug and play with - even with the tech turned off.
Inside each Bluebee Pal animal friend is a Bluetooth receiver. That allows the toy to sing, read and answer phone calls. The toy can connect to any app through a Bluetooth-enabled device, such as an Apple or Android smartphone or tablet. Use any music, storytelling or learning app with any Bluebee Pal. The toy also works as a hands free, wireless speakerphone as it has a built-in speaker and microphone. Bluebee Pals have rechargeable batteries that charge via USB micro cable.
There are five different Bluebee Pals to take home. Choose from Leo the Lion, Lily the Lovable Lamb, Riley the Zebra, Sammy the Bear and Winston the Puppy. Connect or “pair” the Bluebee Pal to a Bluetooth-enabled laptop, tablet, smartphone or music player. Then the fun with apps can begin. There's a call answer/end call button in the Bluebee Pal's left ear that turns the toy into a speakerphone. Children can hold their Bluebee Pal and talk to Dad when he's off on a business trip.
Some of the apps recommended for use with Bluebee Pals include the iStory App, the Cubic Frog App, Spelling City, Disney Stories and 22 Learn. The Bluebee Pals can also bring comfort and learning to individuals with special needs. For instance, children with autism often have difficulty communicating. Dr. Brown's apps work with Bluebee Pals. These apps have been created by a psychologist with decades of clinical experience and used at his clinic by children with autism. Dr. Brown's apps are designed to help young children with autism, attention deficit disorder (ADD), attention deficit hyperactive disorder (ADHD) or any child who has trouble staying on task. There's also the Hamaguchi app that motivates children to develop their communication skills by playing games that focus on speech, language and listening development.
