Motherlode Must-Have: Kid ‘toys’
OK, mamas, Melody’s Choices has some new, trendy do-dads for kids that are stinkin’ cute.
My daughter has a Snap Caps bottle cap necklace and it’s so much fun! You buy the necklace, which has a magnet on it, then choose from a variety of painted bottle caps. Instant bling! You can just switch out bottle caps for different moods. Our favorite is the tie-dye cap with a cursive ‘L’ on it.
Also new from kiddie land: Silly Bandz, colorful rubber bands made of silicone and die molded in many different fun shapes; Japanese Erasers, featuring miniature creations that come apart; and Hex Bugs, which are small colorful robots.
Inexpensive smile-makers!
Like I said, we know these are available at Melody’s Choices — NWA Mall in Fayetteville or Pinnacle Promenade in Rogers.
Here are a few of the Japanese Erasers:
And a Hex Bug (described by one local mom as “kind of like an electrical cockroach. When you clap your hands it scurries away. It also moves when the lights come on.”):
