Toys and Games Reviews of Original 20" Sock Monkey
Customer Review: Helped our marriage, really.
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this sock monkey for my wife back in 1999. We were each sort of shock when we first took him out of his box. He was so odd looking. In fact he was so strange that my wife kept him in his bag, next to her bed, for the first week while she got used to him. Eventually, she released him from his bag, and named him Kwame.
Since those early years, Kwame developed a great personality. Mostly, Kwame is irate, and ill-mannered. He loves to race cars, especially in the videogame Gran Turismo (because he watches me play, I guess). Also, Kwame is extremely vain. Because he is the tallest of all the plush animals in our household, he also became something of a bully. He does not get out of line that often anymore.
So why did he save my marriage? We got Kwame when we were engaged. During our first year of marriage, my wife and i both were learning how to communicate, and we both needed to learn how to describe our frustrations and what were feeling. Through Kwame, my wife found an outlet for her frustrations, her desire to connect with my excessive video game playing, and generally provided us a common jester to think and converse about. Since we added Kwame, other plush friends have joined our family, including Peckle, Ichiro and Isaiah. My wife even created a site for Kwame and his pals at www.FindPeanut.com, seriously. This sock monkey even made it into our wedding video back in 2000.
He's a part of the family, what can I say?
Description of Original 20" Sock Monkey
Fashioned after the classic Sock Monkey, these "snug-able" animals are a handcrafted American classic! In the 40's and 50's, people used to make dolls and toys from real red heeled work socks. This is a replica of that wonderful tradition.For decades sock monkeys have been made from leftover socks, but in case you've never had the time to make one yourself, here is the genuine item. Soft, simple, and lovable, this 20-inch sock monkey leaves plenty of room for the imagination. His long arms and legs can be tied in knots and his simple face consists of two crescent ears, a wide red mouth, and thread eyes. He's perfect for falling asleep with because he has no rough edges--not even buttons! --Sally James
