For Your In'fur'mation ...
Letters 'from' Teddy
Each of the four packages includes a personalized letter to your child 'from' Touring Teddy. These letters introduce your child to the country represented, and go on to describe teddy's exciting adventures as he tours and explores cities and landmarks within his country.
The letters are illustrated with child-like drawings, seeming as if they were doodled by the young teddy bear. For the child that is not yet reading fluently, these colorful drawings help bring teddy's travels to life.
Fact-Filled Photos
There are so many fun photos included - over 25 of them! Nearly each has a description and/or a fun-fact or two. Kids get a kick at seeing their very own Touring Teddy pictured in front of famous country landmarks, enjoying delicious food, playing sports and more, all in his country.
The photos tie in with Touring Teddy's journey, described in his letters. For the child (and grown-up) that enjoys a visual, these photos are a real treat and create a memorable reading experience.
The photo album in the introductory package has a language card on the back flap. Kids are proud to learn to count the numbers in French or Italian, printed with English pronunciation, for ease of use. Basic phrases are also listed, along with words such as please, thank you, and teddy bear, of course!
Surprise Souvenirs
The novelty toy souvenirs are included to surprise and delight. Reference is made to them within teddy's letters, thereby adding to the memorable reading experience of this shared travel adventure.
Each souvenir is wrapped in a cloth gift bag with the following note: 'A Gift 4U. Please read my letter before opening!' ~ We can't promise every child will hold off, but we had to try ;)
Exciting Extras
But that's not all...
A child-friendly recipe card is included with each Touring Teddy. These ethnic-inspired recipes are made mention of in teddy's letters. The recipe encourages family interaction; baking together builds memories, warms the heart - and the tummy. Yummy...Delizioso!
Two Touring Teddies Postcards are also included in the 4th package, encouraging children to keep the magic of mail alive. Plus a 'country activity sheet' offers yet an extra way to enjoy active learning fun!
NOTE: MINI-PALS and SOUVENIRS are subject to change without notice to items of equal or similar value.
