Top 5 Stuffed Animals 2010

The top 5 stuffed animals 2010 are a fun mixture of the not only the best stuffed animals in terms of consumer popularity, but are some of the best selling toys this year - period. 

For anyone searching for a timeless favorite toy for a child, a stuffed animal is almost always a great choice.

Of all the stuffed or plush animals this year for kids, here are the top 5 favorites:

_________________________________________________________

1. Fisher Price Sing-A-Ma-Jigs

Ages: For kids 3 to 6 years

Compare Prices:

Sing-A-Ma-Jigs are extremely hot selling toys coming into the holiday season of 2010. Very cute the way their mouths make a little "O" when they sing. =)

Merchant Info: For kids, and kids at heart, The Sing-a-ma-jigs are free-spirited, offbeat characters that set off unexpected laugher and excitement with every interaction. Their zany looks are unique to them and when they sing you can't resist when their little mouths open wide for each note. Every Sing-a-ma-jig has three modes of play where they chatter, sing their own song, or sing in harmony with their other Sing-a-ma-jig friends. In chatter mode they speak their own language full of jibber and jabbers. For their own take on musical tunes just try song mode where you control the pace of the song. But, the Sing-a-ma-jigs enjoy nothing more than singing together. In harmonizing mode each Sing-a-ma-jig sings a scale in a pitch specific to that character (some high, some low) and will always harmonize with each other perfectly every time. The more you collect, the larger the chorus, the better they sound.
