Searching – 80’s PlaySkool SNUZZLES Blankies GIRAFFE
When I was 6 months old my mom bought me a Playskool Blankies giraffe. It is made of plaid pastel baby colors, with satin mane, tail, and bottoms of the feet, and inside the ears. It had big blue eyes, and antennae that are tied into knots on the end. I carried him EVERYWHERE with me as a child.
I’m 21 now, and he is not in very good shape. At all. In fact he looks nothing like he once did. He has had to be patched up so many times, with 3 different types of fabrics, so he’s not even the original color anymore. He’s just all blue, haha.
I’d love to find another one, mostly for the sentimentality of it. Also, I like the idea of giving my first child the same lovey I had. If anyone knows where I could get one, I’d be so grateful!

Searching for a toy – Originally posted 10/09/2008
Hello,
I found the giraffe on this website:
https://kimsplushtoys.blogspot.com/2008/10/playskool-plaid-blankies-animals.html
I want the lion, I am also 21 and have had the lion since i was born, I am on my 4th. The other 3 are unrecognizable, I emailed the girl asking if she still had them, she only posted a few days after you did so it’s worth a try!
Wow i have been searching for an elephant blankie baby for my daughter who is 19. Her original Elle is an unrecognisable scrap of rags. Even though this has freaked out various boyfriends she refuses to part with it. I would dearly love to get hold of a new one for her as well as any others that may be available if anyone could help me please contact me on the email adress listed below

I’ve written to Kathryn and suggested she get a replica made by Susan.
I only have the group photo of the elephant, so if someone has one and could send Susan some better pictures, a complete description, and some measurements that would be fantastic!!!

Wow it’s crazy to see that I’m not the only one. I’m now 19 and I had this giraffe too since I was a baby. I carried it everywhere, like you. I still have it but it’s patched up too. I don’t know where we can find another one, but mine really has a huge sentimental value.
Love from France

I have two of the Playskool Lovey Snuzzle Elephants and I'm wondering if you know what the elephant on the left side of the picture is called. I'm a big collector of elephants and right now i'm trying to get another blue terry cloth snuzzles and a yellow snuzzles and whatever that elephant is called, I'm going to work on getting him too. If you have a ny links for any of the loveys I would greatly appreciate it!
Good luck Kara!
I hope you find one!

I wish I could help you out with names, but I have never known any of the Snuzzles animals to have names from the manufacturer. Hopefully someone else will stop by with more information.

I'm still looking, so please, if you find him anywhere, I'd greatly appreciate it!
Wow! My name is Kara and I'm 21 as well. This was my favorite toy as a child! It is actually patched up as well almost unrecognizable. It has been packed up in a box for years because it has been so well loved it could fall apart at any moment. My mother bought me a second one when I was 2 because she was worried I would wear the first one out. So I luckily have one to remember my childhood by. I just had to share with you all of our similarities and our love for this giraffe. Best of luck looking for a replacement!

i cant believe i'm not the only 21 year old looking for a replacement for sentimental value. mine is honing in on 22 years old and wrapped up in a baby blanket in storage for fear it's going to fall apart any minute. my poor buddy is barely recognizable as a giraffe for the neck is probably a centimeter thick. i loved it to pieces and would love nothing more than to find another one. thanks!!

Thanks, Carrie. The giraffe usually is more expensive than the other animals for some reason. I’ve passed the link along to the mailing list.
OMG! I just can’t believe how many people are looking for these lovely toys. My daughter has had her giraffe for 24 years and as the others he doesn’t look same from so many patchings. Today the puppy got him and its bad she cried for hours so I starting the search again. My best bet is Susansewnique they look remarkable and we are going to see if she can use some of our old one. I wrote to playskool about 15 years ago wanting to find some just to have them, but never got any response, they should really bring these BACK. Good luck to all.
