Here is Christina with the German word of the week!

This week:
das Kuscheltier /  the stuffed animal


A "Kuscheltier" is a cuddly toy! I am sure you all had one when you were little. There are many different kind of "Kuscheltiere" but the most famous one is probably the teddy bear (der Teddybär).

Dein Kuscheltier ist in der Waschmaschine. / Your stuffed animal is in the washing machine.
Ich habe ein Kuscheltier gewonnen! / I have won a stuffed animal!
