Here’s a great tip for those parents interested in buying the hamster funhouse and also a hamster at the same time. There are four main hamster types that you can buy separately. However, there is now a bundled Funhouse package that includes the hamster funhouse as well as the exclusive hamster called Patches. This is the only way at the moment to get your hands on Patches, so if you want a more exclusive hamster for your child this Christmas, this may be the way to go. The other bonus of buying the bundle is that if you do shop smartly, the combined deal can actually work out cheaper than buying the items individually (with a Patches alternative of course). Anyway…back to the funhouse details…

There are generally two types of parents that cave into their childrens’ toy hamster pleading. Those that answer the pleading with a hamster only and then those that buy a hamster and a complimentary hamster accessory from the start. Whichever type you fall into, from current statistics, there is an almost certainty that you will end up buying one or more accessories as time passes to extend the fun and excitement that this hamster craze is giving kids everywhere.

If you are looking at the many accessories available and a bit stuck on which one, then going with the majority of hamster buying parents will be a sensible move. The most popular add-on is the Zhu Zhu Pets hamster funhouse which is perhaps the most logical pay set that you want to start off with.

Zhu Zhu Pets funhouse essentially forms the central hub for any further hamster habitat expansion that your children want to build. All of the add-ons can be connected together in a number of ways and the other ones simply clip on and further expand upon the funhouse central core.

A plastic tunnel for your kid’s Mr Squiggles (or any) to scurry through connects the individual room hubs that make up the Zhu Zhu Pets funhouse . In one hub your child’s hamster can visit the bathroom and kitchen and the other is the bedroom for him to get a good night’s sleep. The floor is decoratively detailed with the appropriate room furniture so that the hamster knows what to do and how to interact in each.

Children of all ages love to see and more importantly listen out for their chosen hamster toy as it scoots through the rooms and tunnel carrying out its hamster activities. Listen as it visits room after room and makes all the hamster sounds that are suited to that particular place. Having woken up in the bedroom, got ready in the bathroom and grabbed a quick snack in the hamster kitchen, watch as your kids follow the hamster out into the open in explore mode.

One of the biggest challenges facing parents today when spending the money to buy your kid the next must have toy, is just how long will it be before the toy is cast aside and they are bored with it and then onto wanting the next must have toy. Are Zhu Zhu Pets hamsters (often pronounced as Zoo Zoo Pets hamsters and Zu Zu Pets hamsters) just a crazy pre-Christmas marketing gimmick or do kids really get as much fun and entertainment out of them as the hype suggests…and just how long will that hamster keep number one position with your child?

Cepia Zhu Zhu Pets have done something incredible and to be quite honest, I’m not sure whether they did it intentionally or whether by accident, but for sure whatever the reasoning, they’re onto a huge money earner with these hamsters and their hamster accessories.

At a 7 dollar retail price, Cepia really have made the initial hamster purchase price point accessible to almost everyone. They could actually give it away for free and still make humungous amounts of cash. Hey, maybe that’s what will happen in the future? You see, the real profit for the company, come not from the cheap little hamsters themselves, but the wide range of mostly higher priced accessories that kids are driven to once they have their hamster and the parents in turn are forced to buy. However, this is not such a bad idea for the parent and if you play the game right, could actually cost you less than the alternatives available.

Let’s face it as parents, kids boredom levels are getting faster and faster by the day. It doesn’t matter whether this cute little hamster is the latest craze or not, how much fun and longevity can any reasonable child have with a single pet hamster that scurries on the floor moving in different directions and squeaking whenever it feels the need. Boredom could be only days away.

Step in the multitude of hamster accessories. Some of these accessories are just plain expensive in my opinion, but so many are pretty good value and widely affordable. The way I look at it, when the novelty of the solitary hamster wares off, my choice is to put them in the ‘bored’ toy box and buy a whole new toy, or, as I have seen, purchase an additional hamster add-on for less than the new toy and the fun and entertainment starts all over again. The other benefit of this is that these interactive hamsters have all sorts of clever abilities built into them and you really don’t get to see most of it until they encounter one of their accessories.

So many kids have now got a Zhu Zhu Pets hamster and various accessories, that this in itself continues the momentum for your own child in continuing to be absorbed by them. Kids have now also moved onto creative group hamster games, such as hamster races and hamster battles, which does nothing but add a further extension to your kid’s hamster fun.

So, I think that a hamster on its own probably does have a limited life expectancy when it comes to attention from kids, but with the great selection of accessories at hand, the fun just goes on and on and extends at an exponential rate.

It seems that kids all across the country have gone Zhu Zhu Pets hamsters (often pronounced as Zoo Zoo Pets hamsters and Zu Zu Pets hamsters) mad. The commercials on TV have done their job and done is really, really well.

Like so many parents out there, if your kids want a Zhu Zhu hamster for Christmas, then here are a few well chosen hints from my own shopping experiences of how you can get your child the hamster and/or hamster accessories that they actually want and at normal or bargain prices. If you started shopping for Zhu Zhu hamsters earlier, you will already know that they were both difficult to find or that the prices were just plain ridiculous.

Conventional Stores. The likes of Walmart and Toys r Us are still probably the most popular source for parents when it comes to toy shopping. Just a few weeks ago, these huge toy sources just didn’t have Zhu Zhu hamster stock. They got the stock in, but they were sold out before the hamsters even had a chance to settle into the shelves. If you already know that your child wants a pet hamster for Christmas and you see them available in these stores, the advice is to pick them up. Most of the toy stores are happy to keep a toy aside for you for a short time, so you always phone around, find what you want and then pop down to collect it.

Internet Shopping. If you are looking for the largest supply and perhaps some well placed bargain deals, then the internet is by far the best place to go. Whether you visit the websites of your favorite high street stores or search other online sources the supplies are huge. However, care should be taken and a little time spent will reap the rewards of saving a substantial amount of dollars. At first, Zhu Zhu hamster supply was restricted and traders and stores once again took advantage of this situation by artificially increasing their prices, safe in the knowledge that shoppers were still willing to pay these high prices to get their kids the latest must have toy. Things have calmed down from those initial dizzy highs and if you do a little bit of digging there really are some bargains to be had, that as is so common on the internet today.

Buy Sooner Rather Than Later. Every year the same crazy thing happens with kids toys and any experienced parent will no doubt agree with. As soon as a toy is placed on the Toys r Us top ten toy hot list for Christmas, demand skyrockets. All parents that have children, therefore, will be pleased that Zhu Zhu hamsters have just been added to this coveted list! For this Christmas it will mean the inevitable, that those that wait to get their child a hamster till just before Christmas will either come up against the inevitable ‘out of stock’ notice or you will have to pay the exorbitant prices that the restricted Zhu Zhu Pets’ supply will get pushed up to.

Bargain Set Bundles. Buyers of Zhu Zhu hamsters have very rarely being buying a solitary hamster, after all, there really is just so much fun with a child watching a single hamster scurrying around, although fun it is. No, instead they have more usually being buying one or more hamsters and one or more hamster add-ons and then kids have persuaded them to add even more add-ons to in an attempt to create the perfect gigantic hamster habitat. As a consequence, more and more hamster sets and bundles are appearing, this wraps up into a single buy, some of the more popular combinations. Probably the most popular being a Mr Squiggles and Pipsqueak combo or a hamster and hamster Funhouse combo. For the parent, often this means a cheaper overall price compared with buying them on their own.

Zhu Zhu pets are just like a real hamster: they run, they play and they sleep. Unlike their real counterparts, there’s no mess or smell.

Zhu Zhu pets come in 4 varieties. They have diverse colourings, and each have a distinct design on their back. The Zhu Zhu’s have their own character traits and each of them makes a different sound while they play.

Zhu Zhu Pets have made available a great set of extras for the toys. Some almost walked right out of a pet store: hamster housing and a wheel to run on, that the toy will use independently when left to play on its own, and a ball that once you put them in it, will roam around the room. For the most fashionable, they offer a skateboard, an automobile the toy drives, a surfboard they zoom around on, and a slide.

For some down time, they have their own beds to put them in, and these beds even come with a matching cosy blanket. If you want them to go with you, they have carriers, with another blanket, so the Zhu Zhu can be on the go with your child. Again, there are four colours for each of the hamsters, and you can choose one to fit any child.

One of the smartest things about the Zhu Zhu kits is the flexibility to put them together. You can hook the sets with one another and create a bigger play area for the hamster. These can be rearranged, moved and added to and will create more entertainment with the Zhu Zhu pet.

These are really life like and entertaining. They are battery operated, and are interactive with children, or just amazing to watch on their own. This is going to be the next big thing in children’s toys come Christmas.
