Holiday Gift Ideas from Blo Pens and Little Live Pets Turtles

 


Remember those Blo Pens from the 90’s? The popular arts and crafts toy from the 1990s is back! Kids today can now create works of art from just blowing into magic markers just like the kids in the 90’s did! I couldn’t resist the urge to give it a try!

It’s still a lot of fun! Most sets come with a few stencils, like the apple one I did above. Simply place the stencil on a piece of paper and blow into the pen to watch your art appear! If you don’t want to use a stencil you can make your own graphic works of art! Blo Pens can also be used as regular markers to create unique masterpieces.

Blo Pens come in a variety of sets and sizes and you can even opt to purchase the Blo Pen Blaster! With the blaster you squeeze the bulb to create air instead of blowing into the marker. This is a really different and interesting gift for the budding artist on your list.  Sets are available across Canada at Toys ‘R’ Us, Indigo and Mastermind Toy and vary in price from $6 – $30. The smaller sets will make great stocking stuffers or gift add ons!

For the animal lovers of the pint sized variety, Little Live Pets are a great idea!

Toys ‘R’ Us Top 15 Toy is back this year with a new friend the turtle! They are Little Live Pets that love to get wet and are a great addition to the Little Live Pets family that already includes Mice (for real, and they are cute too!), Butterflies, Love Birds and Owls. 

 

Holiday Gift Ideas - little live pet turtles

 

These turtles fit in the palm of your hand and move just as a turtle would on land and once they reach the water they begin swimming. Each turtle is also unique with different shell designs to help show off their cool personalities. I was really excited to see how these would hold up in the water, can he really swim?

 

So you can see I slid him right down the back rest of our bathtub and he took right off. Once he reached the other side, he slowly turned himself around and headed in the other direction.

You can purchase the turtles on their own or with a tank. Though I would say these guys work best in a larger body of water like a water table.
