Your chance to win some Noddy and Mr. Men goodies!
It was just a couple of weeks ago when I mentioned that both Noddy and Mr. Men merchandise has come to Ty’s Toy Box. If you have a preschooler, chances are you’re already quite familiar with these little guys. What I didn’t mention, before, is that both of these properties are owned by Chorion, and—as it sometimes happens—Chorion has issued some promotional items in association with these lines which they’ve passed along to Ty’s.
Promotional items are great fun, because it’s somewhat up to the discretion of the licensee (that would be Ty’s, in this case) as to how they’ll be distributed. For example: Starting today (March 24th, 2008), spend $50 at Ty’s Toy Box (either in the Noddy Store or elsewhere at Ty’s) and you’ll receive a Noddy keychain free with your order.
Nice, right?
I love getting a bonus-with-purchase item, myself. I do. But what I like even more is winning something absolutely free, because I’m cheap like that. And I figured that if that’s what I like best, it was a good bet that some of you Ty’s shoppers and faithful readers would like that, too.
So here’s the deal: Five lucky readers of the blog are going to win a promotional prize pack. Each pack contains a Mr. Men luggage tag, a Little Miss luggage tag, a Noddy keychain, and a Noddy pen. Have a look:

All you have to do for a chance to win is leave a comment on this post by noon on Sunday, March 30th, 2008. Your comment should tell me which Noddy or Mr. Men/Little Miss item you think your child would like the most, and please be sure to leave a valid email address so that I can contact you if you win.
Winners will be announced on Monday, March 31st, 2008—one week from today. Leave a comment and you could be one of the lucky ones!

Warmest regards,
Lynda

I love Mr Men/Little Miss! They are the best characters ever!
March 24th, 2008 at 11:13 am
My youngest WILL love Noddy anything
My oldest two can NOT believe we once (well, yes - of course I watched with them ) loved and watched that *weird* show. Hee!
Thanks!

I think my little guy would like the Big Ears plush the best. He has all the hardcover books, handed down from his mom, who collected them when she was his age.
March 24th, 2008 at 11:19 am
My sons are past these, but I just got a fresh new step-granson!
March 24th, 2008 at 11:20 am
My daughter would love some Mr. Men goodies.
March 24th, 2008 at 11:22 am
My daughter picked the Little Miss Sunshine messenger bag as her favorite! Very cool–hope we win!

Our ‘little miss’ tshirt gets constant comments when we are out and about. So glad this stuff is making a comeback!

March 24th, 2008 at 11:32 am
My son would love anything from the Mr. Men/Little Miss collection. His grandparents have these for him but we don’t have any at our house.
March 24th, 2008 at 11:41 am
Chico would love Mr. Cheerful. He’s RED! and ACIRCLE! Both are things that Chico loves to point out.
March 24th, 2008 at 11:51 am
we have the mr. happy book, and my daughter just loves to carry it around with her and look at it - so if we had a couple more of the books, i think it would be great!
March 24th, 2008 at 12:00 pm

March 24th, 2008 at 12:12 pm

This would be great for my son!
March 24th, 2008 at 12:13 pm
Mr. Happy and Little Miss Sunshine are my kids’ favorites. Noddy and Tessie Bear are a lot of fun too!
March 24th, 2008 at 12:30 pm
My 2-year old would be so excited!
March 24th, 2008 at 12:35 pm
Oh I want the Little Miss Messenger bags soooooooooo badly.
March 24th, 2008 at 12:45 pm
Sadly, Little Miss Naughty seems to match my kid!
March 24th, 2008 at 12:49 pm

Thanks!
March 25th, 2008 at 10:05 am
My daughter would love one of the ball caps, to wear one just like Daddy does. OK, Daddy doesn’t wear a Mr. Men hat, but you know what I mean…
March 25th, 2008 at 1:14 pm
Love it!!!! Count me in!

March 27th, 2008 at 11:04 am
So cute! Thanks for pointing out the fun free stuff! ‘Cause I’m cheap like that, too.
March 27th, 2008 at 8:00 pm
Me too! Me too!
March 27th, 2008 at 9:00 pm
This looks like fun.
My Mother in law showed me a picture of my husband when he was about five years old and he was dressed as Mr. Sneeze.
I think my son would be keen on any Noddy Books.
March 27th, 2008 at 9:01 pm
I’ve gotta say that I think my little guy would love a Noddy DVD. Me? I’m a sucker for the Little Miss Giggles messenger bag. It’s aweseome!
I was all keen on buying a Mr. Men t-shirt for my little guy, but there is only one t-shirt listed, and it’s meh. Any chance there will be a larger selection of t-shirts?
March 29th, 2008 at 9:01 am
My little gal is all for anything Noddy. If forced to make a decision, perhaps the Noddy giant floor puzzle. Really though, she’d flip for any of the Noddy items.
March 29th, 2008 at 8:42 pm
Many a bath timehas been delayedbecasue my daughter has to finish watching Noddy. She loves it. Please count me in.
