Beanie Fans Events!!!

Hi Beanie Fans!

What a busy week I’ve had!

I have been setting up homes for our new BK’s and also visiting BK Fans at some of BK stockist stores! Last week I visited Queensland and the ACT and I have many more stores to visit in the coming weeks.

Don’t forget to check out the BK Events page for your state. With school holidays coming up I’ll be making my way to a few stores around Australia and there will be lots of other BK events on too.

Happy Beanie Event Hunting!

BM’s School Visit Comp!

Hi Beanie Fans

I just wanted to remind you all about the Beanie Master’s School Visit Competition!

This is the biggest competition that we have ever run and I am REALLY excited about it!

Remember anytime you purchase a BK from a premier stockist until the 18th of July you will receive an entry card for this cool comp. Just attach your receipt and entry card and send them into the address on the card.

You could win a visit from ME to your school! As well as a VERY special customised School Master BK for you and your schoolmates – even for your teachers! These BK’s won’t be available for retail sale!

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity so don’t miss out!

Happy Beanie Hunting!

New Beanie Kids Startpage

Hi Beanie Fans,

You may have noticed a big change here at the Beanie Kids website – that’s right, we have changed our website front page to The Beanie Master’s Office. We hope that you will have fun exploring the Beanie Master’s office and check back regularly, as it will be constantly changing as the Beanie Master likes to add new things to his office and redecorate

Beanie Masters Office

Because The BM’s Office is the new startpage for the Beanie Kids website – this means, whenever you access www.beaniekids.com you will now go to the BM’s office. But if you always want to go to the BK Homepage instead of the BM’s Office you can still do this. Here’s how:

How to make the BK Homepage your start page
When you first enter the new BM Office page you will see two buttons on the bottom-right: one button called Go to Home will take you straight to the BK Homepage, and the second button Always Go to Home will make sure you ALWAYS go to the BK Homepage whenever you access www.beaniekids.com.

How to make the BM Office your start page (if you want to change it back)
If you have clicked the Always Go to Home button and want to change it back so that the BM’s Office is your Beanie Kids start page, all you have to do is go back to the BM Office page (there is a button for this under the ‘Learn About BKs’ button) and down the bottom there will now be a button for Always Come Here – click that and now the BM’s Office will be your start page again!

The BM’s Office is very smart – it actually remembers what you chose. So if you choose to go to the BK homepage instead of the BM Office it will remember this. It also remembers if you turned the radio on or off – so if you turn the radio off before leaving the office, the radio will still be off when you come back. It’s one very clever office!

Let me know what you all think about the new startpage - I would love to hear your feedback!

Happy Website Surfing,
Boffin

Strike Gold!!!

Hi Beanie Fans!

Goldie the yellow bearDo You Want To Strike Gold? Goldie the Yellow Bear!!!

She is back from her New Zealand holiday! You have probably heard about her latest adventures on the BK Forum. Goldie has been dropping in from time to time to tell us about her exciting adventures- skiing, hiking, rafting and of course tracking down creatures of folklore! This sweet BK has been busy making friends with all of the dragons, gnomes and witches of New Zealand. Now it’s your chance to befriend this very special Beanie.

That’s right – one of the first BK’s ever made is back and better than ever! Goldie is our newest 26cm Limited Edition BK. She is being released in a special Boxed version to keep her in pristine condition for your collection.

Goldie is one highly sought after little BK. She is an important part of BK History and would make an excellent addition to any collection.
Only a small number have been released so you’d better be fast if you want to strike Gold this month!

Happy Goldie Hunting!

Beanie Master’s Dog Wash Dash!!!

Hi Beanie Fans!

NEWS FLASH - The Beanie dog bears are all a mess and I need your help to clean them up!

Dog Wash DashHave you all heard about the great new game-of-the-month this July? It’s called Beanie Master’s Dog Wash Dash and it’s all about my new Dog Washing service here on Beanie Island.

You see, there was a really big storm on Beanie Island and all the beanie dogs got really messy and dirty – and this was right before the Beanie Town Dog Show!!! Someone had to clean up this mess. So I decided to start up my own Dog Washing business.

This has to be my favourite game so far. You will get to drive my van around Beanie Town to find the houses that need dog washing. Then, you will be able to use your computer mouse to scrub, wash, shampoo and blow-dry our canine beanie friends.

It’s great fun Beanie Fans and I hope you will all help my dog wash service clean up all these dirty dogs. I look forward to seeing your names on the High Scores page :P

Happy Dog Washing,
The Beanie Master

Beanie Master’s Choc-Chip Cookies!

Hi Beanie Fans,

Milk and Cookies RecipeYou know I just love cookies. But you know what I love more? Chocolate Chip Cookies! (You might have noticed some choc-chip cookies in my office). So I want to share with you my all time favourite choc-chip cookie recipe.
If you want to try this recipe at home, make sure your parent or guardian’s help before you start. But I have to warn you, these cookies are extra tasty and you won’t be able to stop at just one.

Here are the ingredients you will need:

  • 2 1/4 cups plain flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup white sugar
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 cups chocolate chips
  • 1 cup chopped nuts

In a large bowl, beat the butter, both sugars and the vanilla together.

Add the eggs one at a time and beat the mixture well.

Mix the flour, baking soda and salt together in a small bowl. Slowly add the flour mixture to the large bowl and combine it well. Add in the choc chips and nuts.

On an ungreased baking tray tablespoon the mixture into separate cookie-shaped dollops. Bake in a preheated oven at 190 degrees Celsius for 10 minutes. Make sure that you get help from a parent or guardian for this step.

Let them stand for 2 minutes and then transfer them to wire racks for cooling.

When they are cool you can gobble them up! And to wash it all down, you will need a big yummy glass of milk… mmm YUM! I think I might go bake some now!

Happy Cookie Making Beanie Fans,
The Beanie Master
