Fun Toy Finds #1: AlphaPup, Train Robot, Fire Truck Robot, & More
I know all children love toys and they would grab every chance to buy a new one whenever there is an opportunity to do so. Rafa is no different, and as I’ve shared in previous posts, it’s become our weekly routine to buy toys at a local supermarket. Thankfully, the toys are at a much lower price as compared to the ones in a nearby mall. As such, our house is literally littered with toys in every corner because we don’t have a proper nursery or storage area for keeping our toys. Just the same, I personally find it fun and exciting to buy toys with my kids (it brings out the big child in me…haha), so I thought of sharing our fun toy finds.
Fun Toy Finds #1: AlphaPup, Train Robot, Fire Truck Robot, & More
Let’s start with the following:
AlphaPup
Miguel had an AlphaPup about two years ago but it got damaged because the battery leaked. We got one again from Lazada because Miguel was looking at it and holding it in a toy store, which you might’ve guessed by now was selling it at an exorbitant price.
We like this toy because it’s educational – the cute dog sings the alphabet, recites items beginning with each letter of the alphabet, sings number songs, and asks its human to take him for a walk or to sing with him. It’s also quite a sturdy toy because it’s made of hard plastic.
Kids can tug it along like a pet and even sing with AlphaPup while they go on little adventures around the house. It’s good for boosting a child’s imagination, as well as their alphabet and number skills.
Train Robot
Rafa loves robots, especially the Transformers so he would ask us to buy a transformer robot every time. This battery-operated toy transforms from a train to a robot (and vice-versa).
This was Rafa’s favorite for a few days, playing it non-stop until we had to change batteries. Miguel liked it too because it had dancing blue and red lights.
You can buy a similar toy in Lazada or Shopee.
Fire Truck Robot
For a time, Rafa was fixated on fire trucks. He loves watching fire trucks in videos and even imitating the sound of a fire truck siren.
With that, he made sure to buy a fire truck transformer robot during one of our visits to the toy store. It’s good for pretend play; Rafa was creating make-believe rescue situations using the fire truck robot.
Again, this toy is battery-operated and would transform from a vehicle to a robot. You can buy it on Lazada or Shopee.
Cake Toy
Again, this is a battery-operated toy. It looks fun because of its colorful lights (Miguel loves this) plus it plays a Happy Birthday song. This cake toy can also be part of your children’s pretend play activities.
You can buy a similar toy in Lazada or Shopee.
Happy Meal Adopt Me Toy
I keep on saying that we are frequent diners at McDonald’s and Rafa would always insist that we get him a Happy Meal. This is our most recent fun toy find at McDonald’s and I must say that it’s kind of cute.
That about sums up our recent fun toy finds. I’ll also share our previous toy finds once I get to sort through the piles in our room. I’ve observed that Rafa tends to easily get tired of the toys that we buy but after a few months, he would be interested in them again once he sees them. So it’s practical to sort of revive his old toys.
