ABOUT MONKEEZ MAKES A DIFFERENCE
MVP Group International, Inc. is turning philanthropy into child’s play with its new educational, charitable program, Monkeez Makes a Difference. The first-of-its-kind innovative and interactive experience teaches children the importance of helping others through kid-friendly tools including the best-selling Genuine Monkeez and Friends™ plush characters, online games, real-life Do Good challenges and a special donation on a child’s behalf to one of three nationally renowned charities of his or her choice.
Monkeez Makes a Difference gives children the opportunity to learn and practice giving back while having fun. It also provides an innovative solution to parents, grandparents and others who are hungry for tools to help them discuss and demonstrate what it means to think of others in today’s world.
MY THOUGHTS
I received Ozzie the octopus and Neville the monkey for review. The pictures of these adorable creatures just do not do them justice. Not only are they soft and cuddly, but they are also quite durable – always a plus with children’s toys!
The best thing about these plush characters, though, is of course that they teach children about the importance of donating to charities and giving to those who need it most. It is extremely easy for kids (with a parent’s help) to navigate to www.MonkeezAndFriends.com and enter the code found on the tag to watch videos about each available charity and donate 10% of the cost of the stuffed animal to their selected charity. After donating, an interactive and educational online world is unlocked for the child where they can visit and revisit to play games and learn more about donating.
The Monkeez Makes a Difference line includes over 90 plush characters in multiple sizes and colors. The animals include monkeys, bears, turtles, koalas, cows, and many more. The retail prices range from $2.99 to $100, and are available on www.MonkeezAndFriends.com and several independent retailers nationwide.

What a great idea! I love that it teaches children about charities and donates a portion of the sale also. They are very cute and colorful. These would be great gifts too.
And I am getting those kids a dog and a cat…What a menagerie!
