This product is something quite different for Valentine's Day. It has been designed to entertain people, and to remind them of Valentine's Day which is on the February 14th. This Bear gives out Valentine Day Gifts when particular items are touched.
This is ideal for Clubs, Shops, Events, Competitions, or anywhere else that is appropriate. You could just use the Bear for display purposes if need be.
The design of the Bear has been based on our highly rated and popular 'Enchanted Christmas Tree' product. Some of the original Tree features have been used, but there is several more additional ones.
