      I think if I had a cute lil friend to snuggle with I might be able to stay in an igloo for the night! But night time is so cold and lonely without a friend!

      My daughter would love this! this is right up her alley!

      Marjorie

      An igloo is not for me. It's much too cold, you see! I prefer the warm summer days and staying in my teepee.

      Tammy Reibly

      I would love a cute ugly doll for my daughters blue room! Love your contests, too, thank you!

      I have my sub-zero sleeping bag, so I would love to give sleeping in a igloo a try!

      This so ugly it is cute. And I know which one of my grandkids would love it.

      Id love to spend a night or two in an igloo,
      I have been looking at some of those vacation deals where you can do that.
      But on another note, My Grandson would love lil ice bat :)

    • February 1, 2013 at 7:53 am

      Jody

      I think I need one! Looks like something I would try and create in my mom's sewing room years ago :)

    • February 1, 2013 at 8:05 am

      Susan

      I think it would be fun to try, but not sure I'd last through the night!

    • February 1, 2013 at 8:06 am

      Annie

      I would love to try living in an igloo for a week! I'm from the northeast so I'm used to the cold! I would need plenty of comfort foods while I was in it!

    • February 1, 2013 at 8:29 am

      Sandra Lamb

      I would love to win this for my newest little guy due in July !!!

      I don't love the cold, so probably not.

    • February 1, 2013 at 8:35 am

      Naomi Pace

      It is so ugly it is cute. I know which one of my grandkids would love it.

    • February 1, 2013 at 8:44 am

      Becca Taylor

      If I had hot chocolate and lots of warm blankets with something warm under me then I could sleep in an igloo. But if those luxuries were not there then no way!

    • February 1, 2013 at 8:56 am

      niki

      I am a wuss. I could never spend a night in an igloo. I can hardly stand to be outside for 2 seconds if it is below 40 degrees!

    • February 1, 2013 at 9:40 am

      Ashley Bell

      I think I could spend the night in an igloo if someone was paying me enough money to do it.

    • February 1, 2013 at 9:44 am

      Jennifer James

      Spending the night in an igloo is totally on my bucket list!

    • February 1, 2013 at 9:52 am

      Brooke F.

      I'd venture out for a night in an igloo if I had something to cuddle, hot soup, and a portable/miniature ice hockey set. And eskimo-like clothing, of course!

    • February 1, 2013 at 9:53 am

      Kayleen Johnson

      Ummm... I'd have to have some pretty darn clothes and sleeping gear to sleep in an igloo! haha. I would do it though.

    • February 1, 2013 at 9:59 am

      amy

      I could spend my night in an igloo. I hear they are warm inside. I would just make sure to layer well and have someone to snuggle with.

    • February 1, 2013 at 10:04 am

      Becky

      If I had a TON of sleeping bags and blankets, maybe I could sleep in an igloo. I would also need my husband to snuggle up to to keep warm. :)

    • February 1, 2013 at 10:04 am

      Spencer Johnson

      I could spend the night in an igloo. I used to go snow camping and thoroughly enjoyed it.

    • February 1, 2013 at 10:07 am

      Becky Proctor

      For me to be able to spend the night in an igloo, I would need a ton of blankets and sleeping bags to create many layers of warmth. I would also need other bodies in there with me so that I could snuggle up and stay warm!

    • February 1, 2013 at 10:13 am

      Lyndie Barker

      I got a few grand kids who are fans of monsters and Lilo (remember she had a scrump doll?) Even ugly can be cute...

    • February 1, 2013 at 10:17 am

      Laura

      I could spend a night in an igloo if I had lots of warm clothes and a sleeping bag! Might be fun, but just for one night

    • February 1, 2013 at 10:34 am

      Christina

      I suppose I could spend the night in an igloo... With a lot of really warm clothes & sleeping bag!

    • February 1, 2013 at 10:34 am

      tarynnr

      My daughter really wants one of these :)

    • February 1, 2013 at 10:35 am

      tarynnr

      Yes! I've winter camped in a snow cave so why not an igloo?

    • February 1, 2013 at 11:22 am

      Jenn Millner

      Adorable!!

    • February 1, 2013 at 11:27 am

      Kodi p

      I think I could stay a night in an igloo if it was full of furs like that hotel in Iceland ... Or somewhere!

    • February 1, 2013 at 11:57 am

      Charity Brooks

      I could spend a night in an igloo, if it was a luxury igloo... where the traditional ice block motif had been upgraded to a more modern palm frond motif...and the snow outside had been replaced with sand...and the view out my window was of the beach...and I was one of the lucky winners randomly selected to be upgraded from the original resort in Alaska to the newest top-of-the-line resort located in Hawaii. Then I could totally spend a night in an igloo! Easy!

    • February 1, 2013 at 12:56 pm

      L. Hill

      Of course I'd sleep in an igloo...at least once anyway.

    • February 1, 2013 at 3:00 pm

      Amandah

      I love it! My daughter recently lost her beloved ugly doll and has adopted an even uglier blanket. I'd like to change that!

    • February 1, 2013 at 3:03 pm

      CristineT

      Maybe just one night...

    • February 1, 2013 at 4:53 pm

      Naomi Pace

    • February 1, 2013 at 8:36 pm

      Doug bell

      My son would love that!

    • February 2, 2013 at 9:39 am

      Kristin Wright

      No igloo for me thanks!! I am a tropical kind of girl.

    • February 2, 2013 at 9:46 am

      missy

      Though I think it would be an incredible story, I think the thought of cold would psyche me out.

    • February 2, 2013 at 1:29 pm

      Noor Grewal

      Totally - I'm totally up for trying new things. :)

    • February 2, 2013 at 1:32 pm

      Bree Ammons

      I have slept in an igloo! Well, a snow cave. But same difference right? It was surprisingly warm and, after the fact I can say that I would probably do it again. But it would be much better the second time around if I had a cute, little, blue, friend with me to keep me company ;) Well, for my daughter. She'd enjoy it a lot!

    • February 2, 2013 at 1:46 pm

      Kendra Lafferty

      Probably not. I do not do well in the cold. I hate snow. I'm sure I'd survive but I'd be miserable.

    • February 2, 2013 at 1:58 pm

      Trina Nixon

      I'd love to spend the night in an igloo! Just one night though. :)

    • February 2, 2013 at 3:36 pm

      Diana

      I'd totally stay the night in an igloo! I'd love to have the experience at least once.

    • February 2, 2013 at 5:03 pm

      Melissa H

      No way could I stay in an igloo-way too cold for me. =) Fun giveaway!!!

    • February 2, 2013 at 7:25 pm

      Belinda Abraham

      I would spend a night in an Igloo, would I survive is another question. If I were to spend a night in an igloo I would need/like to have the right "gear". I love doing things at least once and having the curiosity and adventure of a child.

      Elyse

      Could I ever spend the night in an igloo? If I had a really really really warm sleeping bag I could. ;)

    • February 3, 2013 at 12:59 am

      Melissa

      i don't think i could, but my house is always cold, so ice-bat will feel right at home! ;)

    • February 3, 2013 at 4:28 am

      Bridgett

      I could spend the night in an igloo with someone I love only to keep me warm.

    • February 3, 2013 at 8:53 am

      Kassie

      I could stay in an igloo... if it were properly made. And many many blankets!

    • February 3, 2013 at 9:27 am

      Julia

    • February 3, 2013 at 9:31 am

      N Parker

    • February 3, 2013 at 11:27 am

      Jaime Marsceill

      I'm don't think I could spend the night in an igloo, I've turned into a whimp when it comes to being cold :)

    • February 3, 2013 at 2:56 pm

      Samantha maxfield

      Spending the night in an igloo sounds like fun, preferably with other warm bodies & an electric blanket.

    • February 3, 2013 at 11:21 pm
