Beaniemom reports the following poems for the new Beanies:
Lips The
Fish
Did you ever see a fish like me?
I'm the most colorful in the sea.
Travelling with friends in a school
Swimming all day is really cool.
Flitter The Butterfly
I did not know what I was to be
Created in fuzz, it was hard to see.
Now a butterfly, what a beautiful sight
On silken wings, I take flight.
Birthday Bear
This birthday bear was made for you
Hope your wishes and dreams come true.
Be happy today and tomorrow too
Lets all celebrate the whole year through!
It has also been reported from a good source that these will be the ONLY new Ty products to be released at the trade fairs!
