My 6yo is asking for some for her birthday, and I just don't get the point of them... She isn't into lip gloss or nail polish, so I don't see the point in those, are there others which do something more fun? Do your kids do much with theirs or is this another piece of plastic tat she can do without?

(could possibly add Hatchimals, Shopkins etc to the title but if your kids love them please tell me why! I was stung by an expensive Furby she was scared of before...)

They are cute and cool at the moment. When I was 6 years old it was enough to make me want it. I don't think us adults are aupposed to understand the latest children's passion, just as our parents probably didn't undrrstand the stupid stuff we loved

I looked it up and there are ones that are stamps or light up rings rather than makeup, are these the ones she wants?

It seems to be one of those collect/trade with friends kind of things so this may be the main reason she wants them.

You're probably right Bunny, I don't understand a lot of the stuff!
But yes, Trisk! The stamps etc would have much more use for her I think, thank you!
