Recently, two Mom in the City members (who have daughters) reviewed two fun new items – Polly Pocket™ Pop ‘N Swap and MyMeebas™.

Edith’s daughter enjoyed the Polly Pocket™ Pop ‘N Swap Sport set so much that she wanted to take her new dolls with her to school. (Edith compromised and let her keep them in her backpack during school…) These doll combinations are cute and they come with a variety of fashions to mix and match. The set comes with five heads, nine torsos, and nine bottoms that you simply click together to mix and match. (The only thing that I don’t like is the lack of racial diversity with this set. Polly Pocket does have a Black “Shani” doll in their line, but she’s not included in these Pop “N Swap sets.) At $19.99 for the set though, this is a great pick.
Carla’s family is enjoying trying to get the little MyMeebas™ plush toy to come out of this electronic game fully grown. They are enjoying the games and noted that they keep their daughter occupied for a good period of time. The toy “surprise” comes in a colorful tube that can only be opened through (20+) electronic games and activities being played on the sliding LCD screen. There are over 60 plush toys (including the possibility of twins!) to collect in this unique electronic game series that retails for $19.99 each.
Mom in the City newsletter subscribers can enter to win both toys by leaving their name in the “Comments” section below or by sending an email to contests@mominthecity.com with “Polly” in the Subject line by December 15th (just in time for holiday gifting!).
