(HealthNewsDigest.com) – IRVINE, CA – Cahootie®, the modern-day reincarnation of the iconic, handmade “cootie-catcher” and “fortune-teller” games of the past, announced a partnership with Animal Planet to develop a new line of educational, animal-themed games featuring engaging questions and challenges about the species of the world. The agreement was brokered by Animal Planet’s licensing agent, the Joester Loria Group (JLG) and is North American based only.
New, educational renditions of the beloved childhood tradition, Animal Planet Cahooties are made of pre-folded, rip-resistant laminated paper with bold, colorful photographs from Animal Planet. Eye-catching packaging includes interchangeable stickers that fit one of four animal themes, Dogs Rule!, Cats Rule!, Sea Creatures and Endangered Creatures.
This conversation-starter game allows users to learn fun facts about their favorite animals and discover species they never knew existed. Creating a unique experience for each participant, users insert index fingers and thumbs into the pockets of the palm-sized toys and embark on the timeless practice of opening and closing the game piece until their Cahootie selection is made.
“By partnering with Animal Planet, we have created a line of exceptional Cahooties that will respond to young people’s love of animals and nature and help them increase their knowledge and understanding of many species,” said Cahootie CEO Blythe Jack. “The new Animal Planet Cahootie games will encourage kids and their families to interact with a fun and nostalgic game in a new and imaginative way.”
“We are always looking for new ways to engage today’s youth and spark their interest in animals and their environment,” says Elizabeth Bakacs, Vice President of Licensing for Animal Planet. “This partnership allows us to do just that in a very unique way which will stimulate their curiosity.”
Recommended for ages seven and up, the new Animal Planet Cahootie games are available now at www.Amazon.com, www.ToysRUs.com and at select retailers nationwide for U.S. MSRP of $6.99. For more information, visit www.Cahootie.com.
A portion of the proceeds from the purchase of Animal Planet Cahooties will benefit the principal partners of R.O.A.R. (Reach Out. Act. Respond.), Animal Planet’s national campaign that, together with leading animal organizations, leads the way in taking action and being a voice for animals.
