My kids are getting a bit older and sometimes toys are not what they like to think they desire. Last weekend I attended one of Walmart’s #ChosenByKids events where kids get to try the toys before they buy (o00ps) before you or Santa buys them. My trip was in inspired by this post on holiday lists.
This is the perfect time to find out what would be great to have your kids and others open up on Christmas morning. As my kids grew older, I discovered that yes they like clothes (that they had already picked out themselves) for presents, but what really made that Christmas spirit real on those holiday mornings were the little surprises that they enjoyed that even they did not realize they would desire.
Sometimes this can be as simple as a puzzle, but Walmart showed me some toys that will get every age excited to take a test drive.
There are more test drives – find one here.
I decided to pick up my family a treat of a Little Live Pet Bird. It repeats everything you say – everything you, the kids, or even the dogs say. Pretty FUN!
Moose Little Live Pets Feature:
- These bright and colorful little love birds chirp with 30 different sounds and lots of popular songs.
- Best of all, they even repeat what you say!
- To make them come to life, just stroke your birds’ backs.
- The more you pet them, the more they’ll sing and chirp!
- The Little Live Pets Bird Cage gives your pet bird it’s very own home to sit and swing in!
- You can even press and hold the button on the either of the birds’ chests to record 10 seconds of your voice: simply say a short message, and they’ll repeat it right back
The final thought is that we all need toys! Yes sometimes they do get bigger or more expensive as we age – but sometimes they can be simple. Surprise your family this holiday with toys! Don’t forget to pick up batteries.
I was compensated for the review of Walmart toys, but the opinions are all my own.
I love the Little Live Bird, it is so cute!
How adorable is this!? I want one ! LOL
These are just ADORABLE! How cute! I bet my girls would really like it!
That looks like a lot of fun! Those birds are so cute. My daughter hopes to get one for Christmas!
I think my daughters will love this bird. How sweet!
Those are adorable! I’ve got a niece that they might make the perfect fun gift.
I enjoyed the event and it was nice to get to try out the new toys. I saw this bird and thought it was really cute.
That is such a cute little bird toy! It’s amazing how much cooler toys are now than when I was a kid….my son gets some of the neatest stuff!!
I am definitely going to get one of these for my daughter for Christmas
They are cute and so so sweet!! I love it when a toy talks back…says what the kid says. Little ones find this so fascinating!! Glad you all got to attend an event.
My lil guy saw this at the event and thought it was a fun toy. That’s funny he repeats what the dog says too!
This is like having your own pet without the hassle of clean up!
I’ll take that!
