How many of your kids have “puppy” on their Christmas list? My younger kids ask for a puppy just about every year….and so far every year they have been disappointed. Granted, the Christmas tree was filled with OTHER presents, so they quickly forget their disappointment until next Christmas rolls around.
“Mom! Can we get a puppy?!”
Well, this year, that puppy might be able to make it under the tree.
Meet Cookie My Playful Pup from FurReal Friends
My kids love their FurReal Friends. This Fall, they added an adorable newborn penguin to their FurReal collection. I’ve been looking around at new FurReal Friends to add to the Christmas shopping list this year, and I’ve fallen in love with real-puppy-sized Cookie. It’s amazing how adding a little bit of responsive action to a toy really makes it come alive for my kids.
Here’s a little about Cookie from Hasbro:
With real-as-can-be movements, sounds and actions, COOKIE MY PLAYFUL PUP lets you experience the joy of having a puppy of your very own!
When you pet her on her head or back, she barks, moves her head and wags her tail. Give her cheek a little scratch and she’ll turn toward your hand to ask for more! When you tell her just how sweet she is, she’ll respond with puppy babble that sounds just like she’s talking to you!
She loves her squeaky toy — when you make it squeak, she’ll turn her head toward the sound! When you put her toy bone in her mouth, she’ll make crunching sounds like she’s chewing it.
This soft, adorable pup is about 14 inches tall and you can either sit her up or pose her front legs so she’s lying down. The very best thing about COOKIE MY PLAYFUL PUP is that she’ll always be puppy-cute!
Puppy comes with squeaky toy bone.
Ages 4 and up.
Suggested retail price: $59.99

my daughter has been asking for this for awhile now!!! i would love to win it for her!!! so cute
They all want video games this year!
My kids have been a little quiet this year about their CHristmas lists… I know my oldest loves stuffed animals (she is 11, almost 12 but still LOVES stuffed animals)
My daughter would like this puppy & itty bitty twins from American Girl Doll but she decided to give the money we would havee spent on her to children in 3rd world countires instead (through World Vision). She said a gift from her brothers will be enough for her this year. I am so proud of her for giving. She is adopted from Guatemala and she knows that she could have been in the same situation as are many of these children so she has a heart of compassion.
I am a single mom of 5 children that are ages 6, 7, 8, 9, and, 9. I work very hard to try to provide for them but as any single mother knows, it’s a hard job. My 8 year old daughter told me the other day that she didn’t care what she got for Christmas as long as she got Cookie, the puppy with a bone. I started looking around at prices and could not believe that this toy cost almost $60. I would really like to see my kids get the toys they ask for this year, but I don’t know how I’m going to swing it. I had no idea that this toy had so many features and I would love to be able to see her open it on Christmas day.
I know a little girl whom is asking Santa for a easy bake oven this year.
My 4 and 6 year olds would love this! The pet fish needs a companion!
Cookie is on my daughter’s christmas list! My son’s list has a remote control chopper!
A scooter,an a Chuck the talking truck
vlbelk(at)hotmail.com
My daughter wants a doll house and a Leappad.
Books are on the list!

He’s not quite making his own list yet but it consists of “I want it” to just about everything he sees.

My kids don’t really have a wish list…they know we will not have any money to celebrate this year and have adapted quite well to the situation…but finances are tight and unless I win a few things or find a few to review…we’re not going to be able to celebrate…:( …heavensent1@yahoo dotcom
My son wants anything robot, my 4 year old daughter wants strawberry shortcake, the older girls have circled lots of things in catalogs.
My 3 year old daughter really wants this pup! She also wants the rock and roll Mickey, which I imagine is really popular with lots of kids, this year!
My daughter really wants a baby doll for Christmas. Luckily “Santa” already has it on wraps!
My kids both have a pretty interesting list this year, my 6 year old’s being a little comical. We have a 4 month old puppy she is not quite used to yet, and when we saw this in the store she told me that it would be more behaved then ours, and we should buy it…..
My youngest is 1 and anytime she sees a baby doll or a animal she squeals and gets so excited! So we’ll get her a doll for Christmas and she would love this puppy too!
American girl doll stuff (daddy is making some), Baby doll accessories, Clothes,books, games. A real dog. (Not gonna happen) This one would be an awesome alternative.

We are not allowed to have a dog in our apartment and she wants one soo bad. This dog seems so life like and I thnk would make her a very happy girl this Christmas.

ksceviour at hotmail dot com
This is the one toy my daughter has been consistent in asking for. I tried to nab it today (Black Friday) but they’re either already scooped up (like at Toys R Us where they were only $29.99 today) or the deal just isn’t good enough to constitute purchasing it (yes, I am THAT frugal..haha). I would be ecstatic if I could win this for her
With three boys I have plenty to look for, but this was on my 5 yr. olds list, so it would be great to win it!
My daughter has been begging for this.
My 5 year old wants this puppy, a purple beary sweet doll, barbies, and a keyboard so she can start piano lessons. My 3 year old wants Thomas trains, crayola set, tonka plane/truck and transformers rescue bot. Thank you!
After just having a baby, we can’t afford much this season and my children know to only request one main gift and be pleasantly surprised with what God blesses us with this Christmas. I’m actually having fun trying to enter these giveaways and see where God blesses. My daughter is heart set on a Disney Princess Rapunzel baby doll. My son would like the game Wipe Out 2 or Disney Universe for the Wii. The baby doesn’t know the difference, but he is partial to Mickey Mouse stuff too.
All my son wants this year is baseball equipment
