Piccoli Horses are soft, high-quality plush toys, that impressed our parent testers, many of whom told us that they stand out in the sea of plush toys. The stuffed animal itself is very well made. The feet are weighted and it is well stuffed so that the horse is quite soft but can still stand up on its legs. The horses come in multiple colors with the option of two different saddles. But these aren’t just plush horses. They also feature an interactive component. Each Piccoli horse comes with a code hidden in its saddle and that code can be ‘redeemed’ on their website to learn your horse’s name. You can also add a ‘barn’ name or nickname for the horse. Afterward you can have a certificate either emailed or mailed to your child. There is also an app that quite frankly didn’t hold a candle to the horse itself. Some testers embraced the online extension that adds new technology to a classic play pattern while others questioned its necessity. In reality this toy combines the old and the new. There are no electronics in the horse and it doesn’t do any robotic things. So in the end it’s entirely up to the parent whether or not they use the interactive features. Either way, there is terrific imagination play waiting for your child who, if they love horses, will fall hard for this one.
