Squinkies NEW Zinkies

Do you guys remember the review that I posted on Squinkies?

(Squinkies are a pretty big deal around here.)

Well, now they have :  Zinkies!

A smaller *Yes, that is possible version of Squinkies

Half the size of a Squinkies but still squishy, squashy and equally adorable!

We received the following Squinkies Zinkies . . .

Squinkies Zinkies Sunflower and the one pictured above (Squinkies Zinkies Train)

My kids LOVE these, of course.

I'm not quite sure why all these teeny tiny toys appeal to them but they do.

I just have to make sure they keep these far away from little Kennedy as she is always putting something in her mouth these days.

~Both playsets are priced at $12.99~

Bubble Packs include 12 Zinkies, 1 toy display, squeezers and magnifying glass. Collect them all!

Love the Squinkies? I am sure they will love new Zinkies!

Don't pinch me! *St. Patrick's Day fun

My kids always look forward to "that day we have to wear green or we get pinched" day aka St. Patrick's Day. I think they just like pinching me because I NEVER wear green.

Who knows?

Here's some fun crafts and food ideas to try with the tykes . . .
