Zhu Zhu Pets – Take A Hamster Home today ?
Almost every year, there seems to be at least one toy that stores can’t seem to keep stock of. In years past, we’ve seen the craze has been for toys likeTickle Me Elmo, Cabbage Patch Kids or Webkinz. This year, the rage is all about Zhu Zhu pets.
The idea behind Zhu Zhu Pets is a interactive toy in the form of a pet hamster, with no mess or risk of losing the pet. This little critter is lively and life-like by being integrated with technology to produce both real hamster sounds and real hamster-like motions.
But should you bother getting one? Live hamsters themselves are relatively low in price, although if you decide to accessorize, you might find yourself spending a bit more than you expected. Most people can see a pro in not having to worry about how rough a kid is playing with it or having to change the cage. But some have presented concern that this toy is fails to teach children any sense of responsibility has far as pets are concerned.
A child will never be able to completely connect with a Zhu Zhu Pet as they could with a real pet hamster, or any pet for that matter. But that’s not what could be the toy’s real merit. This is a good step in between not having a pet and later having one with full responsibility. Caring, even in part, for a Zhu Zhu could inspire your child to be truly devoted to a real one.
An example might be a two year old that loves an older child’s pet hamster. You may not want to get a real hamster for a two year old, because that would be a short, sad fate for the hamster. But with a Zhu Zhu pet, your child can have almost as much fun without the fear of hurting it.
The cool thing about the Zhu Zhu pet is that it really is like having a hamster without the mess. From real hamster sounds, to an exploration mode similar to the behavior of real hamsters, this is the closest thing to having one. Along with the exploration, the hamster also features the “loving mode” which allows kids to hold their hamsters close and hear noises reacting directly to human contact that a real hamster would.
Zhu Zhu Pets might be the next Tickle Me Elmo or Furbee and are only a hot commodity for a season. They might soon be forgotten about. But, they are admittedly quite cute, so you should consider getting a Zhu Zhu for your little one and to let them experience the fun of having a pet, or maybe just having a new pet, without the messy tasks of caring a pet that no one likes.
