This is how the luggage situation usually ends up when we travel with our daughter. My husband packs a small bag and then my daughter and I “share” a large bag. Or, I should say that my daughter’s stuff takes up 80% of that space and I squeeze my things into the other 20% of the bag. It’s amazing how much gear a baby/toddler requires. Depending on what “stage” your little one is, you might need a breast pump, bottles, nursing pads, diapers, wipes, a potty seat, pull-ups, extra sets of clothes, a baby carrier, a stroller, a sippy cup, the list goes on…
With so much to bring and so little room to store it all, I truly appreciate products that have more than one “purpose.” After all, as moms we multi-task all of the time…shouldn’t our products do the same thing?
One excellent example of a product that does this well is the Zoobie, “an innovative 3-in-1 pet that is a plush toy, a soft pillow, and a comfy blanket.” My daughter has Ellema the Elephant and I have to say that she IS quite cute and extremely soft. She “transforms” from stuffed animal to pillow to blanket in seconds. So smart! And the best part about Zoobies is that there are so many animal choices…Koalas, Baboons, Rhinos, Crocodiles, and more!
The Zoobie is an ideal companion for road trips, airplane flights, or even for just running errands around town. Zoobie pets can be purchased online or at select retailers for $34.
WIN IT! One winner will receive a Zoobie Pet of his/her choice. To enter, leave a comment on this post stating which Zoobie is your favorite prior to Monday, July 14 at midnight (don’t forget to follow the rules). * Winner must provide a U.S. mailing address.
*UPDATE* The winner is #229 Ann Marie Walker. Congratulations!
I’ve had my eye on these for a while — so cute and perfect for trips with my toddlers (as long as there is one for each of them; otherwise it would be chaos!). I can’t decide if I like Hada the Hippo for my daughter the most, or Kojo the Croc for my son!
These are super sweet. My 18 month old loves his cuddlies & his pillow, so I think he would flip over one of these. It’s so hard to pick which one is the cutest…but I think we’d have to go for “Lencho the Lion”.
These are so cute. My daughter would love Poallu the polar bear or Khimba the koala bear. They’d also make great shower gifts.
I’ve seen these before and thought they were a great idea too! I didn’t know they had so many cute choices though! I can’t decide between Lencho the lion, Hada the hippo, or Ellema the elephant. They’re all adorable and I know my daughter would love any of them.

these are so cute!! ella likes hada the hippo!! probably because she is pink?!?!?
thanks so much!

I LOVE Zoobie Pets! We actually already have Khimba but I would love Ellema! We just came back from a trip and my daughter snuggled with the baby koala while I wrapped my self in the blanket. They are so soft and snuggly!
Winda the Wilda beast would be a great companion for my daughter on our next vacation! One less thing for me to pack in a small car!
I just think these little plushies are so adorable! And the fact that it is a stuffed animal and blanket all in one is so convenient! My favorite right now is definitely Ping, the panda bear, as we are in the process of adopting from China. Too cute!
Such a great idea! I love them all, but I would go with Tama the Tortoise!
I completely agree! Toddler gear takes up so much room. Zoobies are too cute. My son would love Kojo or Lencho. A Zoobie would be the perfect companion when he starts daycare in the fall.
I saw these once before and thought they were genius and sooo cute! I like Ellema, but I think Tama the Turtle looks so cuddly and cute so she’d be my number one pick.
Lencho the Lion or Hada the Hippo are perfect for my daughter! I love them all though.
I love these. My youngest received the red monkey for Christmas. He just loves it. But now he is so into Elephants. Is the elephant new?
I’m totally into Lencho the Lion and Hada the Hippo. They are too cute!! I confess that my kids are kind of past this stage, but they would be perfect for my niece.
They’re all so cute that it’s hard to choose just one. I think Poallu looks the most cuddly though.
Ellema the elephant (that blue is my daughter’s favorite color and shade) and Rhaxma the rhino are my favorites
Hi, These “Zoobie Pets” are so cute! I have to say that “Poallu” is my favorite. I think part of that reason is that they are endangered and it really bothers me. Please enter me in your always delightful contests. Thanks, Cindi
HADA the Hippo is my favorite – thank you for the contest
My daughter would love Hada the Hippo
Wow! I wish I had the time/energy/brain power to come up with a great idea like that!! I’d have to say that I think Hada the Hippo is my favorite!
Ive seen these online a few times now and think they are just great. My favorite would be Bobo the Baboon. Love the colors.
Bobo and Rhaxma are my favorites. So cute.
What adorable toys. However, Winda the Wildebeast seems to be a good match for my granddaughter.
hip hip hooray for the hippo!
Ellema the Elephant is my favorite!(for my elephant adoring and somewhat obsessed daughter! :) ) These are such a clever idea! What a relief and comfort (and space saver!) they would be to have in the car!
My favorite is Lencho the Lion. My daughter would love this.
My favorite Zoobie Pet is Khimba the Koala and Baby Kai :)
Oh! My grandchild will love one of these!
So adorable! I absolutely love these little guys. I’ve seen them before, but have yet to actually see one in real life!
It’s hard to pick a favorite, but Ellema is up there, as is Lencho! So adorable.
These are so cute. I would love to win one.
tama the tortoise
tortoise
hippo is great
Khimba is my favorite.
My son would love Lencho the Lion. He loves lions and bears for some reason. Thanks for the giveaway!

I think Tama the turtle is my favorite. They are all cute.
Khimba the Koala and Baby Kai are my favorite. So cute and cuddly.

I love the elephant and the turtle !
Hada the Hippo is so cute
AWWW! I LOVE PING THE PANDA!!! Ping has stolen my heart! Before Christmas of 2001, I had this huge panda bear animal- it was a gift from my dad (may he rest in peace), and I took it every where with me (even if I was a junior in high school!)
My choice is Tama the Tortoise!
How adorable!!
Taj the Tiger — what a cutie!
You know, my kids have quite a few stuffed animals but nothing as cute as these little guys. I still have a stuffed elephant and bear from when I was a tiny little thing and it means so much to me tht I still have those peices of my childhood. I know my son would love Tama the Turtle.
Lencho the Lion
These are just adorable; are they not? I think he would like Rhaxma the best but personally, I like GoGo the Gorilla!
Now theres no need to worry when packing up the car, “Did I remember the blankie AND the toy?” because they’re BOTH in one place. Maybe.
Thanks again!
I am so thrilled that you are giving one of the zoobie pets away. I have been on there site many times, but unfortunately (even though they are a very reasonable price) I haven’t been able to purchase one.
My favorite is the Wangombe the water buffalo!!! It’s just too cute. I even got my husband to add it to his favorite, he wants to start buying these for christmas gifts this year for friends kids.
Thanks truly for this giveaway, I only hope that I’m chosen!!!
My favorite is definitely Ellema. He has such a handsome face.
My son is 2 1/2 years old and always looks forward to seeing the elephants at the zoo. It would make his day to get this little guy!
These are just so precious. I love the Jafaru The Giraffe and I know my son would love this one so much. Thanks so much and please enter me.
My favorite is Orazio the Orangutang
How cute!!! I clicked on Hada the Hippo and was surprised to see it turn into a blanket. All my kids would love these (even my 8 year old), but Hada would be for my littlest one.
These are great! I love Bobo.
gkstratos@ yahoo.com
i like ping
Taj the Tiger is so cute. Thanks for the chance to take one of these cuties home.
Hada the Hippo is cute. Does the pillow come with it, or do you buy one to fill it with? I loved this idea when I saw it on someone else’s blog.

Khimba the Koala and Baby Kai

Paullu the Polar Bear would be great for my daughter. Thanks.
These are so cute! I would pick Hada the Hippo, I think it would be really neat for my little daughter, she would get a kick out of it! It would also be so convienient on trips so I wouldn’t have to take three separate things. Thanks for the opportunity to win!
thry are all adorable but i think my grandaughter would like Ellema the elephant
I love them all! I think my son would like Cheche the cheetah. They are all adorable though.
Orazio the Orangutan is my favorite. Their site is wonderful…great music. I want all the zoobies!
It’s ahrd to pick just one, but I love the blu gnu.

I have to honestly say Ellema the elephant. I just love that one.

“Orazio” the orangutan is my fave….he’s so cute! I love the music on their site as well!
I love Kojo. Calvin loves the color green. My little biter could use some stiff competition from a crocodile. What a cute, snuggly friend for all the traveling that we do! I love the adorable pillow/blanket packaging…what a fun concept!
Kojo the Crocidile would be my pick.
I’d have to say Elema, the elephant although I love all of them.
I would love Taj for my son since that would be his favorite.

What a clever idea! I can’t resist Hada the Hippo. :D Thanks for the contest!
Too cute! Thank you for having this. I would choose Taj the tiger. thank you
Ellema
I love the Zoobie pets. I think it is such a great idea to be able to have it as a pillow, blanket as well as a stuffed animal to play with. My personal fave is Ellema the elephant; but they are all adorable and I would pick according to which person I was buying for (for example, I have one grandson that loves monkeys so for him I would have to choose Mashaka the monkey.)
count me in
Those are so cute! I especially like Zulu the Zebra.
I have been dying to get a Zoobie pet. There are so many and so cute. My favorite is Kojo the alligator. I also really like Tama the turtle and Rhaxma!

Ellema is my favorite but Tama runs a close second!
I admit, I go back and forth on my favorite zoobie pets, because I like them all so much! Today, my favorite is Kojo, the croc. I also really like the music on their site, I know that’s kind of weird. But it’s fun and upbeat! I’d love to go on a safari one day. If only plane tickets weren’t quite SO expensive.
