Poogles are a children's toy that appears in "Arthur Rides the Bandwagon."
Poogles appear to be an attempt to copy the Woogles, another children's toy with happy faces that can squeeze, stretch, bounce, and talk. Poogles, however, can do none of these things, and have the appearance of green, potato-shaped beings with silly faces painted on them, and a hard body with hands and legs. They can do nothing and thus are little more than a cheap novelty. These toys were so cheap and useless that the kids of Elwood City generally stayed away from them.
When Arthur began feeling left out because he was the only kid in town without a Woogle, he saw a stand selling Woogles and immediately bought one, not realizing that the sign was blocked and in fact said "Poogles", not "Woogles". He named his toy "Charles" since he didn't know its real name, and when he showed it off to Francine and Muffy he realized that his Poogle was completely useless. Buster pointed out his mistake and Arthur got rid of it, giving it to some triplets who cried at the sight of the toy.
