Patch Buddies Review...

"Being away from home can be nerve-racking for all kids, whether they are heading off to sleep-away camp, daycare or day camp. Send your child out the door with a buddy - new Bubele’s Patch Buddies (www.PatchBuddies.com) – the magical combination of a backpack, stuffed animal and blankie.

Doctors agree that an easy way to fight the symptoms of separation anxiety is to give your child something that reminds them of home.

• SRP: Plush toy, $14.99 each; backpacks, $16.99"

What we thought:  Our kiddos really liked the Patch Buddies backpack we reviewed.  They loved the cuddly little Kitty/blanket.  This would be a great overnight bag for those sleepovers and trips to Grandma's house or used at daycare.  The bag is on the smaller side and with the animal in it, it probably wouldn't have enough room to be used as a school bag, but it would make a great kid-sized weekender:)  ABCD Diaries gives Patch Buddies an A!
