Not only is this Kitty Plush toy super cute and cuddly, but it also sings song lyrics to help a child calm down and relax. This is the perfect gift for whenever they are feeling even a little bit under the weather or sad.  A full ten inches long, this grey and pink plushie is the perfect size to snuggle with to feel instantly better. Press the button on its paw to hear the wildly popular “Soft Kitty” song uniquely inspired by the CBS hit The Big Bang Theory. You will be hard pressed to find a cuter plush toy or more in demand pop culture collectable this season. Who could resist a sweet song with lyrics like: “Soft kitty, warm kitty, little ball of fur.  Happy kitty, sleepy kitty, purr, purr, purr.” Before you buy, you can even enjoy the song online at the StylinOnline website and watch the portion of the BBT episode that inspired this purr-fect plushie. A soft kitty shirt is also available but sold separately.

Voice Rockrz Mic (www.voicerockrz.com) – $24.99
Much more than a microphone, the Voice Rockrz Mic transforms performances, propelling any show from the living room to the stage. The interactive microphone “magically” changes a child’s voice as they perform with just a tap of the included accessories – a ring and bracelet – to the Mic target zone. Kids can sound like stars and elevate their performances to new heights with the Mic’s incredible Hi-Note, Echo-Tastic and Robot-Riffic voice effects. They can also cycle through concert sound effects like an audience applause and crescendo-ing drumroll with the simple press of the FX button on the Voice Rockrz Mic. By plugging in any MP3 player (not included) into the 1/8th” jack, kids can rock on by singing along to their favorite songs using the Voice Rockrz voice effects. The Mic is available in pink with a flower ring and a cute skull bracelet or blue with a skull ring and zipper bracelet. It requires three AAA batteries, which are even included.

MIMOBOT USB Flash Drive (www.Mimoco.com) – $22.95-$119.95
For boys and girls, Mimoco offers a wide range of designer, pop culture-inspired USB flash drives. My fav’s include the Darth Vader Unmasked MIMOBOT featuring Star Wars’ dark lord of the Sith. Remove Darth Vader’s helmet to reveal his face below, with a one-in-six chance that face is the Return of the Jedi-era pale, scarred countenance. Hot on the heels of Mimoco’s Vintage Batman release comes the full Batman x MIMOBOT collection with a brand-new Batman design! Boasting the signature blue and grey of his recent comic book appearances, Batman MIMOBOT is here to protect Gotham not to mention important data. A decidedly girlier option is to go up, up and away with the Sanio Hello Kitty Balloon MIMOBOT. The price depends on the GB size you choose, which ranges from 2GB to 64GB. Whatever you choose, kids are sure to love this unique and practical gift to keep all their school work, creative designs, and photos in a safe place.
