Hi, Moms.

I am seeking advice/information on the Hamster in a Ball toys. (not a Zhu Zhu pet) I have read in previous posts about them.

Where do you find them, and approximately how much do they cost? Also, what has been your experience with them.

My son saw one at a Toy Store last week with his Grandparents, and really enjoyed it. The good part was that it didn't make any obnoxious noises like the Zhu Zhu pets. But, it was 12.99 and came in a pink ball.

Zhu Zhu pets are banned from our house. We had tried to buy my son a Zhu Zhu pet for his birthday this past Fall. He was begging for one since they use them in his Kindergarten class. Needless to say, it was totally obnoxious and didn't work well, so we took it back.

I'd love to get him this toy. It'd be a good alternative to a ZhuZhu pet.

Thanks for you input

What can I do next?

Just go to Amazon.
in the search box, type in "hamster in a ball toy"... and you will find it there.

It is NOT expensive.
It is called "Hamusuta the Happy Hamster in Ball by Hamusuta "

There is also this Hamster toy at Amazon:
"Westminster Toys The Happy Hamster Wheel Runner"

Or just go back to the store where his Grandparents took him, and buy it there.

Your Son may also like what is called "HexBug Nano" It is little CUTE robotic 'bugs.' REAL neat. My kids love them and it is NOT expensive. Amazon has it too... or Brookstone stores....
as a grown-up, I like them too. Real fun. It is a REAL popular toy now.... my 4 year old son and 8 year old daughter like it. They have about 4.

all the best,
Susan
