My 6-year-old son is obsessed with this new toy called Hatchimals. It’s advertised as a magical and mysterious new friend. But basically, it’s a great substitute for a pet.
You nurture and care for the furry animal inside the eggshell waiting for it to hatch. There are penguins, draggles and owlicorns. Once it hatches it’s your furry friend for life.
When I was in high school Giga Pets were all the rage. They were digital pets you could put on a keychain that lived in your pocket. They drove the teachers crazy, constantly beeping in class, but nonetheless they ruled my 10th grade year.
My sons have been asking for a dog for years now. I tried to explain to them they don’t keep their room clean enough for a dog. I’m afraid it will choke on a Lego or a Ninja Turtle. This may be a good option to distract them for a while.
I left a link below for you to check them out on Amazon. If you have a kid from the age of 5 – 12 or may be doing some birthday shopping for someone in that age range I’m sure this will be a hit!
