Interactive Koala Toys

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Hasbro's furReal Koala Kristy Includes More Than 60 Sounds and Reactions

— January 22, 2021 — Life-Stages
Hasbro is adding a new furReal toy to its range, brining kids Koala Kristy.

The baby koala toy responds to kids as they interact with it, with more than 60 different sounds and reactions available. This means that Koala Kristy will babble back at kids if they start talking to her, signal that she's hungry, make feeding sounds when she gets her bottle, and more. With so many possible interactions, the latest furReal toy will offer hours of engaging play for kids 4 years and up.

After first launching its furReal Friends line in 2002, Hasbro has been steadily expanding the collection of interactive toys to include more animals and introduce more evolved capabilities to inspire creative play.
