Remember the Pokemon cards? Kind of the same thing except these are geared to girls and they can actually set them up and play with them.Д¬ollectible toys are nothing new. They are learning about value (I know in an odd way but still) and having fun while they do it. There are even harder to find toys that the girls understand are worth more in a trade.

They are talking about which ones they have and actually trading each other for items that they don't have. Girls are using their imaginations to play with items that resemble products in a grocery store. Here is what I love about these little toys: they are encouraging almost an 'old school style' of play. 'Oh, no! We don't have to return it, Grandma! I can use these to trade for things that I don't have!' So, when she opened the one that I gave her I told her that I would take her with me and we could return it. When we were opening gifts on Christmas morning she opened one that was identical to the vending machine one that I got for her. I just wasn't sure which ones she already had. I also purchased a few small little sets. I looked over all of the sets available at the time and finally decided to get one that had the little toys encased in a vending machine that acts as a storage container, too. As I did my shopping I noticed that I could purchase 3 or 4 sets for less than the price of a Barbie doll. Most of the toys are very inexpensive and come in small sets. They specifically marketed young girls for a collectible toy because they could see that there was hardly anything to compete with.

An Australian based company came up with the idea of these mini toys back in 2014 and they have a real hit on their hands.
