So, Shopkins are a toy that I swore I would never buy. They come in groups of 2-12 (that I’ve found so far) and are teeny tiny little toys of common household items and food with faces on them. I swore they’d never be in my house! They are also collectible which sounds like a nightmare to me, especially at the rate my kids lose things! Well, my kids begged and I have to admit, they are adorable!!!<\/p>\n
Season 1 comes with up to 148 different Shopkins to collect. They come in 5 different categories – Common, Rare, Ultra Rare, Special Edition and Limited Edition. This is where the whole collectible thing comes in. It’s addicting. We’ve gotten two different 12 packs so far and I’m just as hooked as they are! You can sort them by the sections they come in – Frozen, Pantry, Sweet Treats, Dairy, Party Food, Health & Beauty, Fruit & Veg and Bakery. They sometimes come with baskets and bags to play with as well.<\/p>\n
Pros: Absolutely adorable little toys! Affordable (I believe I got 12 Shopkins for $12.99) and make very good rewards for kids!<\/p>\n
Cons: They are very small, easily lost and highly ADDICTIVE!<\/p>\n
Would I buy them again? Absolutely. They are so much fun and so cute. The mystery Shopkins are a lot of fun\u00a0too.<\/strong><\/p>\n Here’s a video of my oldest and I trying to figure out what Shopkins are all about. We were very confused. She and I were both immediately hooked though and she’s 13! We’re having as much fun with them as the little ones!<\/p>\n
