Title
Inspirational Talking Toys.
Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a unisex Christian toy open to all children.
Background to the Invention
Plush toys also known as stuffed toys have been popular with both children and
adults
since the nineteenth century. Plush toys are usually made in shape of animals.
The most popular design up to date is "teddy bear". A main purpose for plush
toys is to
entertain children.
Throughout the years there have been many attempts to improve the appeal of
such
toys to both parents and children by adding features to the toy, for example
adding
messages which will be entertaining and instructive at the same time for
example
quoting Inspirational, Bible/Biblical verses, messages and mini songs.
The language of such messages has to be simple and easily understood by
children. In
addition to its functional features the toys have to be safe to use.
Accordingly, there exists a need for a plush toy which will contain these
inspirational
biblical messages and be addressed to children from more than one culture or
nationality, these messages derived from within the toy by software reading
the SD
Card, written in a proprietary fashion so as to ensure only messages created
for the
product can be played via the SD Card Reader on the plush toy produced by the
manufacturer.
