What it is:
A set of foam pieces to transform an ordinary snowman into an adorable penguin.
Why we love it:
Here in California, we have to drive if we want to see snow. It has its advantages, we save money on snow tires and we don't have to shovel the walk, but we still feel a little cheated in the winter wonderland department. We'd love to go sledding, or have a snowball fight, and when we stumble across gifts like the Snopals, we get really jealous. These fun little sets of soft, colorful foam pieces allow you to transform an ordinary snowman into an icy little pet. Simply shape the body of the animal out of snow, and add the foam decorations to bring your new friend to life (figuratively speaking). You can get penguins (pictured here), dinosaurs, or dalmations, whatever tickles your fancy. If you're shopping for kids with a lot of snow and little to do, Snopals are sure to go over well. You can even pick up a whole fleet of little penguins to decorate their front yard. They're ready to go in no time flat, just add water (very cold water).
Who we'd give it to:
Kids, the snowbound, parents who need to get the kids outside for a bit, lonely penguins.
