Cars, homes, and TV’s aren’t the only things getting smarter, so are dolls!  The My Friend Cayla <\/a> doll is the first real talking interactive doll.  Yes, there are already dolls that talk, but Cayla actually answers you back.  You can ask Cayla any question and she will give you an answer.  Sometimes she knows the answer, sometimes not, but she’ll always answer you back.<\/p>\n

My Friend Cayla – First Interactive Doll<\/span><\/h2>\n

Cayla knows millions of things.  How does she do it?  Though the innovative use of an app on your phone and the cloud.  Cayla connects to your phone via Bluetooth.  When the app is open, she can access a cloud-based encyclopedia to answer questions.  If she doesn’t know the answer, she will say “I don’t know” or “I’ll ask my teacher.”<\/p>\n

To ensure My Friend Cayla is ready to listen to you, the heart on her necklace will glow.  Otherwise, she won’t respond to you.  The heart necklace also confirms that she is connected through Bluetooth to the phone that the My Friend Cayla app is on.<\/p>\n

But Cayla is not just smart about the world, she is also very self-aware.  You can ask her over 1,000 questions about herself and she’ll answer.  Out of curiousity, I asked her who her mom is, thinking she would say me.  Instead, she described her mom, Sue, like a princess with long brown hair, brown eyes and she packs Cayla’s lunch and makes her breakfast for her everyday.\"Christmas<\/a><\/p>\n

Cayla loves to help with homework too.  You can ask her to spell a word for you or even tell you simple math computations with her built-in calculator mind (in the cloud!).<\/p>\n

Cayla is 18 inches, so she can easily be taken along in the car or for a walk in the park.  She is compatible with other 18″ dolls clothes.  Cayla comes with a hairbrush and a mirror.   Even when she’s not connected to the app, she can still talk and play games, share her photo album, and read bedtime stories on the app.  In fact, 80% of Cayla’s play capabilities can be used while she’s not connected to the cloud.<\/p>\n

Want to slip in some Spanish teaching to your child?  You can change Cayla’s settings to Spanish and all of her conversations will be in Spanish.<\/p>\n
