Clueless newbie Nov 23, 2006

Hi everyone,

I am new to the site and to making bears but need help finding an inexpensive voice recorder to insert in a bear. I saw a news story recently about an organization donating bears with voice recorders to children of deployed soldiers so the parents voice would be played when the bear is squeezed. I want to make some bears and donate them to this worthwhile project or start a local project in my home state of Oklahoma. I figure they can't be much if an 18.00 donation provides one bear for a child...they look like "build a bear" bears- and the bear is dressed with a recorder. Any suggestions, or anyone want the info to donate a bear to a child?

Thanks for your help.

Hi Brenda, I can't offer any advice, but wanted to say that this is such a great idea.   Welcome to Teddy Talk by the way.  You'll enjoy the forum and will learn a lot.  We do love pictures so if you make some bears we'd love to see them !  :photo:

Hi Brenda,
Welcome!  Sounds like a really great idea and project to support.  I tried googling a few phrases and found "digital voice recorder crafts" pulled a lot of sites up.  Most seem to run for 10-20 seconds and vary in price..some sites offer discounts for multiple purchases.  I guess the only thing you'd have to be sure of is that the recorder stays put where the "press here" point is.  Other than that it looks fun and easy.
Good Luck!

I'm off to eat some Turkey and Veggies of all kinds!! gobble gobble...Happy Thanksgiving all!!
