    Hoodsbee: The Hoodie That Becomes A Plush Toy

    I was really wowed when I first seen this!  My Little Man even more. This is such a neat idea and it is easy to become a backer of this project through Kickstarter!

    A soft, plush toy that becomes a hoodie for your child is a great idea. They can take it along with them in car, camping, school, trips, airplane, etc and if they get cold put it on. Then at bed time they have their snuggly stuffed animal that they can use as a pillow to make them feel at home. Awesome! Pledge to  Hoodsbee at Kickstarter!
