A hit toy

I was watching the Toronto Santa Claus Parade on the weekend, some young girls were asked what they wanted for Christmas.  They said they wanted an LOL Surprise doll.  I had never heard of these so I went googling and found this article.

Lol surprise stands for 'Little Outrageous Little Surprise'.  It is a hit toy that debuted last year.  It is a dome shaped plastic case with dolls, accessories, clothing and charms that must be unwrapped individually.  The surprise and appeal is in the slow reveal which can take hours.  It is a toy for the snapchat, instagram, youtube generation.

I've never heard of those dolls, either - I'm out of contact with kids of that age these days, and my grandchildren are in their twenties! Hugs, Valerie

Edible gifts are the best.

I would like an edible gift...if it is good. I am so out of the loop on toys since my grands are older.

I have never heard of these before. There always seems to be something each year. I go back to the days when cabbage patch kids were all the rage, and don't get me started on GI Joe, my son and all his friends liked those.

Sounds cute. I'm so out of teach with what's popular with children these days.

I'd not heard of these and couldn't get onto the link you kindly gave.

But I keyed LOL surprise dolls in and found out what they are.
The toy manufacturers come up with new things all the time :)

All the best Jan
