Cuddly Plush Stereos

The Sungale Teddy Bear Speaker Acts as a Cuddly iPod Dock

— August 4, 2013 — Art & Design
The clever and cuddly Sungale Teddy Bear Stereo is basically like a cute plush iPod dock. These adorable speaker-infused teddy bears come in a variety of colors and are perfect for music-loving kids.

These musical teddies are compatible with most MP3 players, so if you don't have an iPod, you can still enjoy this charming toy-like stereo. This device is great for families with young children, because if the stereo gets knocked over the stuffed bear will likely protect the speakers from being damaged. The speakers are located in the bears feet. This soft plush toy grips the iPod/MP3 player while the speakers blast the owner's favorite tunes.

This fantastic cuddly stereo provides adults with a pretty good excuse to own a teddy bear (or at least a mildly good excuse).
