So, the Furby is set to be the biggest seller at Christmas 2012 in the UK but lets face it, who has the money to spend on something that may just be a fad and forgotten about by our children in a month or so?
I have had a look around at some similar toys that are a bit cheaper, 1 of them is still quite dear (The FurReal Pup) but it looks like that may be a longer lasting toy in terms of love-ability and I think children will really warm to it, particularly if they want a pet but you don't think they are ready for one yet.
The V-tech Kitten is not furry, like the Furby but for some parents this be a welcomed benefit if they have kids that are messy as mine are! It makes cleaning them so much easier when you can just use a baby wipe!
The Meercat toy looks really good and kids may love this due to those silly Compare The Market adverts! Meercats are actually quite beautiful animals, I seen some the other week at a local farm. (anyone near Erskine in Scotland should pop into Lamont City Farm, it's a tiny wee place but is all run voluntary so please leave them a wee donation if you do go!)
