Description

We secretly embedded sensors to the stuffed animal that girls have cherished since childhood, and made them able to speak. The mother could talk remotely with a cute voice through a voice changer. While bewildered by the stuffed animal that has suddenly taken life, the girls begin a conversation. Eventually, they confide the true feelings that they couldn’t share with their mothers. Hearing the daughters’ anxieties and worries, mothers advise daughters and with the help of the stuffed animal, they are able to reveal their true feelings.
