My Little Baby Born Doll

Wednesday, February 21st, 2007

My Little Baby BornThe popular Baby Born doll has been around for a very long time but the doll’s recommended age group is usually over the age of 3 years. Well now there’s a ‘My Little Baby Born’ – Baby Born’s little sister who can be looked after and played with by a younger audience of 1 year and above. My Little Baby Born has a soft body but is still able to go in the bath so I think she is a great idea for younger children.

She is available at Amazon.co.uk for as little as £9.74 but she is currently only available at Amazon.com from a seller at $49.99 which is rather expensive.

The toy is currently selling for just $16.50 on the US site and £14.99 on the UK site. What a bargain! Considering this is one of the most popular toys this Christmas I’d get in quick in case the price goes back up.

Bratz Pampered Pupz

Tuesday, December 5th, 2006

Bratz Pampered Pupz CloeThe all new Pampered Pupz are now available from Bratz. There are four girls in the collection each with their own little puppy; Cloe, Sasha, Yasmin and their new bestest friend Charli are all strutting their stuff with their perfect little pupz by their sides.

This is the first collection of Bratz that puppies have been introduced, aside from the Bratz Petz collection of course. You can also adopt your own puppy by logging onto the Bratz Website.

Each girl wears a pair of cropped jeans and a fashion top and has their own lead for the puppy. The best thing about this cute collection is the introduction of new Bratz gal Charli, she is yet another beautiful character and will hopefully be a member of the Bratz Pack for quite some time. The new Bratz Pampered Pupz would be a great Christmas gift and as soon as we find an online shop who sells them we’ll post it on here!

Buy at Amazon for $19.99
