Can I Buy a Meerkat Toy?

If you are looking to buy a meerkat toy from the ‘compare the meerkat’ people but you don’t actually want or need to buy insurance, then you might be asking ‘where can I buy a meerkat toy?’. Well this is a great marketing ploy as they are not actually selling the meerkat soft toys separately.


There are a few other people who are making meerkat soft toys and you can get hold of one on Amazon for under £10 if you are happy with an imitation, for example check out this meerkat soft toy.

There are a couple of designs although obviously they are not part of the original set of meerkats from the adverts. They are dressed up in a similar manner probably as a substitute for the originals.

However, you can get hold of the original meerkat toys, most likely from those people who have got them free when they bought their insurance and are happy to sell them on. If you check out the listings in eBay then you can find not only Aleksandr, Vassily, Sergei and Maiya.

 

Is This The Most Popular Christmas Toy?

So every year there is a top ten list of the most popular Christmas toys and one that I have noticed being on a lot of these lists may bemuse some parents a bit! it is a toy aimed at slightly younger children (although recommended for those over 3) and it is called Doggie-Doo!

Doggie-Doo is available in both the Uk and the US (see links below) and it is a game that encourages children to be aware that if they have a dog they have to pick up it’s poop afterwards if they take it out for walks. With poop always being something that makes kids laugh, this game will not fail to amuse the children when they have to ‘scoop the poop’, albeit the poop in this case is plasticine.

Check out full details of the game from your part of the world by clicking the links below:

   

FurReal Puppies

So if your young kids really want a pet and are keen on getting a puppy for Christmas but they are really a bit too young right now, then one thing you can get them until they are really old enough for a real dog or puppy, is a FurReal Puppy.

Every year technology gets better and toys become more and more like real pets. With the FurReal puppy your child can play with a lovely furry friend that will not poop or need taking for walks. Instead they can talk to it, give it a toy and play with it and still have great fun.

This is a brilliant Christmas gift for young children and is already climbing up the Christmas best seller list. The great thing about this puppy is that it will always stay as a puppy and never grow up so it will stay as cute as ever! So, play with it, talk to it and give it it’s toys and this will entertain the kids for hours. Choose from the Cookie Puppy or the Walking Puppy.

 

Turkey Hat for Thanksgiving

With Thanksgiving fast approaching you may be looking for a few fun things to spark up the Thanksgiving meal. If so, then maybe you can check out my ideas for Thanksgiving Games – these are suitable for kids and adults alike and will bring the family together.

Or you might decide that you want to go for the whole Thanksgiving costume scenario with members of the family dressing up in costumes that are themed towards the history of Thanksgiving. However, if you think a whole Thanksgiving costume is a bit much then what about getting a turkey hat? This is a really cheap and fun way to add to the Thanksgiving dinner atmosphere and you could even get one for all of your guests (I’m sure some of them would love you!). It sometimes feels like the whole of Thanksgiving revolves around the turkey so why not make yourself into one!

There are plenty of turkey hats to choose in a variety of price ranges and I have checked a bunch of them out and list below a selection of my top 5 turkey hats for Thanksgiving – check out these turkey hats!

This turkey hat makes me laugh every time I look at it and that is why it comes in at number 1 on my top turkey hat list! The turkey in question is now deciding to be the chef and is perhaps about to carve himself up! This is a plush hat that will certainly give your guests a laugh. Number one because of the expression on the turkey’s face as much as the fact that it is a great price for a great turkey hat.
At number 2 in the top turkey hat list is this full body turkey that looks like he has just been for a night at an Irish bar and has come home worse for wear! This is a great value furry bodied turkey hat!
At number three in the turkey hat chart is this plush turkey drumstick hat that looks good enough to eat (maybe!). Great for the person who is all ready to carve up the Thanksgiving turkey.
For those who want to be all geared up for the big game this referee turkey hat is perfect at number 4 on the list. Either that or you can just be the decider on any arguments that might happen!
And last but not least in my top 5 turkey hat list is this smart shimmering turkey with long yellow legs! A great price for a fun hat!
