Zhu Zhu Toys - A Review

Zhu Zhu toys are a hit this Christmas season.A lot of parents want to buy them for their kids but they don't really know what is available, what items they need to get, and how to make sure they are not paying too much for what they are getting.This article will make sure you understand everything there is to know about these toys.Zhu Zhu toys consist of 4 hamsters, a funhouse, and some accessories.The four hamsters are Squiggles, Pipsqueak, NumNum, and Chunk.Squiggles is the leader of the Zhu Zhu hamsters. Squiggles is a dark brown hamster with a curly cue design. He is the explorer of the group.Pipsqueak is the daredevil. She loves adventure and comes in a light brown color with a Flying star design on her back.NumNum lives for food, as her name suggests. She can spot a snack from a mile away. NumNum is a gray hamster with a sun design on her fur.Chunk is a surfer dude. This cool hamster lives for the water. He comes in a light gray, off white color and has a big heart on his back.You don't need to get all the hamsters. One is enough, although if you want to get more that is fine too.The hamster starter set, or Zhu Zhu Hamster Funhouse, is all you really need in terms of accessories. It gives the hamsters an area to run and explore without setting them loose in your house. Plus, exploring the habitat will activate a series of new sounds in the different hamsters that can only be heard while they are in the Funhouse.The Hamster wheel and tunnel connect to the Hamster Funhouse. The hamster can run out of the fun house through a tunnel and into the hamster wheel. Then they can run the wheel just like a live hamster. Alternatively, you can put the hamster in the adventure ball and let them explore the house just like a real hamster would.When night falls, you can tuck the hamsters away in their own hamster blanket. You can also put them in the Hamster carriers and cover them up with their own cozy hamster blanket. Either way, the hamster can then be tucked away in their habitat and sleep quietly for the night.In addition to the hamsters and accessories, make sure you have some extra triple A batteries on hand. Zhu Zhu Pets includes batteries that don't last that long and you will need to replace them sooner than you may think. Rechargeable batteries, may be a good solution.These virtual pets are a bit hard to find these days and their prices keep going up.
