Printies online design studio is a new craft activity that allows kids to be toy designers and make their own customized stuffed animals at home. Kids start by designing their pet with the Printies online design studio, choosing from millions of art assets and design tools. They can add clothes, text and even photos. Then they print their design on both sides of special Printies cotton fabric sheets using any inkjet printer. They easily tear along the perforated animal shape, pop it out, stuff it, and seal it shut with a pair of shoes. There is no cutting, sewing or gluing and most important, no mess. Kids can design 6 one-of-a-kind stuffed Printies for under $20.

Now Dora and her four new friends solve mysteries and work together in their online world at www.doralinks.com. Dora Links, the cornerstone of the new Dora's Explorer Girls collection, is an interactive, computer-compatible doll. Dora and her four best friends — Naiya, Emma, Kate and Alana live in the robust online world of Puerto Verde, a fictional beachside city, where the girls go to school, get involved in their community, help friends, and work together to keep their home clean and green. For girls ages 5 – 8, Dora Links offers an exciting innovation in computer-connected play — appealing to a new generation of technologically savvy kids. Girls just plug her into a computer to access her online world and to help her assume disguises for mystery play – they can change her speech, hair length, eye color and jewelry color.
