I think as FurReal Cubby the Curious Bear is a teddy bear, he has the extra-cute factor, so I could see why she would want one as her main Christmas present this year.

Cubby isn’t too heavy which is great. You often think these interactive toys will be but children can easily move him around, without the worry of dropping him. Covering up his eyes to play peek-a-boo (saying, "peek-a-boo!" into his microphone will make him uncover his eyes and respond with a "peek-a-boo!" of his own) You must then “bear” (sorry) in mind, I could not use my little darling for this review. Nor could I use her baby sister, who was surely going to blab that she had been playing with FuReal Cubby the Curious Bear! So my little dude is the prop and no this product is not designed for 8 month olds!One month after Cubby was released to stores, a variation was released as Plum, the Curious Panda Cub. Plum has exactly the same features as Cubby, but the fur is designed to look like that of a panda instead of a grizzly bear. The eyes were changed from green with brown eyelids to purple with purple eyelids, both of which accented with glitter, and a tail which resembles that of a real panda bear. This pet also did not come with the same feeding accessory; instead, Plum comes with a "bamboo bottle" and a separate brush. These are separate accessories that do not combine. I will go into more details about how we found Cubby Bear by FuReal and our overall thoughts for him, as a gift for Children. More About Cubby Bear

Price-wise, he is competitive with other products that are similar, so I feel this is reasonable. Again, just make sure this is what you little one really wants, as it is a lot to spend. I do feel Cubby will be loved though, possibly due to him being a teddy bear.The Cubby the Curious Bear Instructions are easy to follow. The come in picture form and I had no issues. Although we couldn’t test this at night we could have a go. Cubby closed his eyes and started one of the three-5 minute sequences available. He makes some very cute sleepy sounds and plays soft music or forest sounds. Perfect for helping your little one fall asleep. His left paw is the only activation point that works and you can press this and change the sequence. I liked the day and night modes, which mean children can take him to bed and he may actually be a sleep aid for those children who like music or white noise. My eldest, like most kids is always hot on the top toys of the year and this year was no exception. She adores toys that are interactive and almost alive; toys that she can both play and interact with. This year getting the chance to do this FurReal Cubby the Curious Bear Review by Hasbrowas amazing for her. She had seen Cubby Bear on YouTube and after we have reviewed some other interactive toys over the last 2 years, such as the Hatchimals Hatchibabiesand Hatchimals WOW, Luvabella doll and Owleez, I knew I wanted to try and get one of these fabulous toys for her too. This night-time mode is featured on various modern FurReal toys including Dazzlin' Dimples, My Playful Dolphin toy, Sweet Jammiecorns Lamb and Unicorn toys, and Cinnamon, My Stylin' Pony toy.
