Hot 20 Toys...some of the best for grade school kids

 

Moxie Girlz:  A simple thing for a mom to love about her…she is the “anti bratz”.  Moxie has a great appealing look…those cool eyes, a great wardrobe..and lots of added play with each girl.  Her clothes are hip, but appropriate.  Her message to little girls…be true to yourself.  Art and fashion is a key theme here, but again I will reiterate, she is an age appropriate doll.  If your little girls want to dress like Moxie, you will smile and say ok.  Girls can be like Moxie…and they can be themselves.

 

Printies is a fabulous new craft line that I would love to shout out to the world.  While I’m not going to name the stores in the mall that cost $100 for a single stuffed animal that takes 5 minutes and barely any thought process from you or your child (except adding up the bill you’re going to get), Printies let’s our kids become their own toy designers.  They get to make their very own stuffed animals.  It begins online at the Printies Studio.  Here kids create using millions of art assets and design tools that are provided.  They can create clothes and even use their own photos on the designs.  Their work can be saved, deleted, used..so they can make so many samples until they decide which will actually become a toy.  When they are ready, they put their Printies cotton fabric paper in their printer…and print!  Out comes their design, ready to become their stuffed animal.  The stuff it, put on the shows, and behold their own special toys.  There’s no cutting, no glue, no mess.  Each set comes with enough to make 6 different stuffed animals.  Hours of fun and creativity for under $20.  Another winner on our Hot 20 List.

 

Girl Gourmet Sweets Candy Jewel Factory:  So what is better than candy?  Nothing   And what is better than jewelry?  Nothing.   Put this together and we have a recipe for pure success for little girls.  They get to create, bake, wear and finally eat their beautiful jewelry.  Everything needed comes inside to make rings, necklaces and bracelets, so they can create delicious treats to show off to their friends…and eat together.  I like the eating part best...my nieces like to create!!
