Bumpas: The Plush That Hugs You Back

With travel season upon us, parents know the joys and fears of traveling with children. Whether on a plane, train, or in the car, kids can experience anxiety when away from the security of their daily routines. 

Much like a weighted blanket used to provide comfort from an anxious world, Bumpas dolls are designed to take on your travels and hug you all the way. Weighing 3lbs, and recommended for ages 3+, the oversized plush dolls have arms that are weighted and stay in place when gently draped around your shoulders.

Ugly Dolls 1st Teaser Trailer

Unconventionality rules in UGLYDOLLS, STXfilms' new animated musical adventure starring the acting and singing voices of Kelly Clarkson, Nick Jonas, Janelle Monáe, Blake Shelton and Pitbull. The film is inspired by the unique and beloved global plush toy phenomenon launched in 2001.

In the adorably different town of Uglyville, weird is celebrated, strange is special and beauty is embraced as more than simply meets the eye. Here, the free-spirited Moxy and her UglyDolls friends live every day in a whirlwind of bliss, letting their freak flags fly in a celebration of life and its endless possibilities, occasionally looking to the sky, where a new UglyDoll will appear and be embraced by the community.
