A doll and interchangeable hat assembly for celebrating events and entertainment includes a doll, which comprises a body and a head. Each of a plurality of hats is selectively engageable to the doll so that the hat is positioned on and extends from the head of the doll. Each hat has a respective theme so that the plurality of hats comprises hats having a variety of themes. A respective hat having an associated theme is selectively engageable to the doll so that the respective hat acknowledges an event associated with the associated theme.

A plush toy system is provided having a foam inner made with a compressible foam. A flexible outer covering surrounds the foam inner and has an inner surface for contacting the foam inner. The inner foam is compressed and constrained by the flexible outer covering such that it does not achieve a natural uncompressed size. The flexible outer covering is formed into a shape, or the inner foam is formed into the shape and the flexible outer covering is shaped to and aligned with the shape of the foam inner and entirely surrounding the foam inner such that the inner foam is not fully expanded and is constrained or compressed by the flexible outer covering.

A multiple component transition toy assembly for easing a child user's transition between various locations includes a portable component formed from a plush, stuffed body having an attachment member and a destination component formed from a rigid body having a retaining member. The portable component can be selectively coupled with the destination component because the attachment member is operative to form a releasable attachment with the retaining member. The portable component may be weighted to provide a grounding feeling to a child user. The transition toy assembly may include a wirelessly actuated sensory output device which causes the destination component to acknowledge the presence of the portable component through a sensory output.

An integrated communication and capacitive sensing circuit and an interactive system using the same are provided in the present invention. The integrated communication and capacitive sensing circuit includes a microprocessor, a sensing electrode and a resonant circuit. The microprocessor includes a first input/output (I/O) pin and a second I/O pin. The sensing electrode is coupled to the first I/O pin of the microprocessor. The input terminal of the resonant circuit is coupled to the second I/O pin of the microprocessor, and the output terminal of the resonant circuit is coupled to the sensing electrode. When sensing the capacitance is performed, the first I/O pin of the microprocessor detects the charging/discharging state of the sensing electrode to determine the capacitive variation. When a data output is performed, the first I/O pin of the microprocessor is set to high impedance, and the second I/O pin of the microprocessor outputs or does not output a high frequency carrier according to a transmission data, wherein the resonant circuit amplifies the amplitude of the high frequency carrier.
