Simplymini is simply creative fun at its best!
March 31st, 2008
My girls know a late-afternoon knock on the door most likely means the UPS guy or mailman (and yes, that’s politically correct since he is male) is dropping off a new product for the Daily Dish. They anticipate a box’s arrival almost as much as I do, hoping whatever’s inside is something they get to “help” review. Well, they were not disappointed when the samples from Simplymini arrived. In fact, my girls had their new Simplymini sticker books out of the box and cracked open before I could even say, “Hey! Here’s something you girls get to review!”
And I don’t blame them (wish I’d had my own Simplymini book to test but for some strange reason none were to be found). Simplymini is the newest thing in sticker fun. Think of it as “today’s modern version of Colorforms.” It’s a creative, hip take on the ol’ paper doll and it is totally cool! You can mix and match outfits, add shoes, hair, bags, earrings and accessories. And the stickers are reusable–just peel them on and off. I forgot to mention how totally adorable the characters are in these sets. They are definitely a nice break from the Bratz and MyScene looks out there (no offense).
My girls enjoyed their Simplymini fashion stickers and I enjoyed a little quiet time. Any imagination-inducing toy that can do that is a must-have for road trips, plane rides, and that 2-week Christmas break. What’s really neat is each series of books is printed in limited quantities, so they make a great (and space-saving) collectible. This year you’ll even see a special travel edition featuring New York, London, Paris and Sydney. Plus because Simplymini is concerned about so much plastic packaging in toys (e.g. clamshells) the company is introducing “green” packaging on their Starter Pack and donating a percentage of proceeds to an Earth Fund. Simplymini is simply the coolest thing in stickers since scratch ‘n’ sniff, and that’s saying something! –Emily

My daughter would absolutely love this! She loves stickers and I think it would be so good for her to learn to “dress” the characters in the book. Maybe she’ll start wanting to dress herself from it too
! Thank you!!
