    Amazing Kids! Plush Toy Design Contest Winner, 
    15-16 age category:
     "Uncle Sam"
     by Hayley Mitchell, age 15;

    "Uncle Sam"

         This is my design for a plush cat called Uncle Sam.  Sam would be a pure white, plush cat made from fleecy, soft fabric.  He would have stars and stripes over parts of his body - tail, ears and belly!

         His whiskers would be thick black elastic so they spring back into position.  His nose would be hard plastic, and covered in a soft red felt.  His eyes would be hard, shiny and cat-like.  If this product were to be manufactured, the eyes would have to be attached so that they would not cause a safety hazard for young children.

         The pads on his paws would be red and blue, and would be made from soft felt.  The final touch would be the red, white and blue ribbon attached around his neck as a collar, with a small gold bell.  This would have to be fastened securely if Sam was to be manufactured.

         If manufactured, Sam's paws and tush would be filled with hard pellets, whereas his arms, legs, tail, head and body would be stuffed.

    Ideal age:  4+
    Size:  approx. 20 cm. high
